Harper Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) Current State: Once the full time whistle blows, the players head immediately to the tunnel. What I’d like to see: It would be a nice touch for teams and technical area staff to linger on the pitch at the full time whistle. Captains, model citizens/professionals go walk over and shake hands with the ref. Some or the whole away team walking over to the away support. This could be tied to personality and length of time at the club. Leaders, professionals, fan favorites, and icons leading the way over regardless of result, while mercenaries, ambitious, and spineless players may be more likely to avoid the fans after a bad performance. Home team walking over to the crowd and giving away their shirt. Celebrating after signature wins (in the latter half of the season, in '6-pointer' matches with regards to current league position) Players surrounding a goalie after a clean sheet or the man of the match. International teammates or former teammates coming together to chat post match.
