What's the views on next season that drawn games will have a penalty shootout at the end to decide the points?

I'd rather see us sub-contract the English FA's VAR system and do away with our corrupt one.
Better still, use FA referees as well, and take away the SFA bias from the pitch. We can but dream.

I think that would encourage more defensive football and more time wasting.
Maybe encourage attacking football by giving a bonus point for scoring 4 goals, similar to Rugby.

Bonus point not a bad idea, but how many red cards would the Sevco opponents see then?
They'd probably have to play against 9 to get to the 4 goal tally.

@aindoh, while we are at it. Let's call it soccer.

If that had been introduced this season the whole league table would look different,
Maybe restrict the penalty shootout to one player from each side, and no player can take a penalty shot in the shoot out more than twice a season.

Just keep football as it is. Why change it? Arsene Wenger tried to get FIFA to stop throw-ins because he didn't like Stoke and other teams using long throws. It's nonsense. Teams play differently; teams don't have the players or money to buy certain players to play out from the back, and attacking, aggressive football styles make football matches.
Taking away smaller clubs' ability to play more defensively, and maybe score a winner from a corner, is wrong. It would be like when we beat Barcelona, taking away the win because we played defensively. Stop changing things. Football is football.
