Changes To FIFA Laws Of The Game 2009-2010

Technical Area
Only one person at a time is authorized to convey tactical instructions from the technical area. (amendment 2009/10)
The part of the text deleted:
(....and he must return to his position after giving these instructions)
This change should be warmly welcomed by all team officials as one official can now stand the whole match without being pestered regularly by the fourth official to sit down or move back. They are reminded that only ONE official can stand at any one time and the coach and other occupants of the technical area must behave in a responsible manner. With this change too, the duty of the fourth official is made easier. He need not go and remind the official standing to return to his position after giving instructions.
