two ideas about time wasting at football matches

watching a cynical, boring and dirty Watford team use every tactic possible to waste time at the end of their 2-1 victory over Ipswich gave me two ideas about time wasting in football games:

1) for every occasion that a team is guilty of time wasting, a minute should automatically be added to the time left to play

2) when football is showing on the TV, there should be two clocks - one counting from 0 minutes to 90 minutes as normal, and another starting at 90 minutes and counting down to zero that is stopped every time play is stopped, so viewers can see how much time should be left to play after the 90 minutes are complete
