Not just in music, but in penalty shoot outs too.

Short version. Penalty shoot outs currently go
Team A win the toss
Team B
ABABABABAB-sudden death with a repeat of ABABAB
Issue. Team going second has the added pressure to score more often than not (as most penalties are statistically scored)
Change is
ABBAABBAAB - sudden death with a repeat of BAABBA
Winner of the toss gets advantage of going first 3/5 times.
I think this change is fair, logical and right. It will therefore no doubt fail to come to fruition. |  |

Been using this system when I was a coach, when picking teams.
The fat kids still ends up last ones chosen.
So I then select them as the ones doing the choosing. |  | | |

Do they choose the 2for1 deals? |  |

But on a more serious note, I can see the ABBA system causing some serious confusion in the heat and tension of a shootout, especially if it goes to the wire i.e. beyond the first five kicks
Or during the first five, if a few are missed by both sides, working out when one team has won. I can see extra kicks being taken once a result has been settled; unless there's an independent arbiter to keep track, which is fine at professional level, but lower down the leagues could result in confrontations with dozy refs

Us fat kids weren't always last pick! Embrace & excel as a goalkeeper and you end up being first pick.
Obviously what happened to Conrad too |  | | |

Maybe the powers that be will take a chance?
As long as the winner still takes it all, why not give it a try? |  |

I don't see there too much of a problem with the order of kicks - as long as you each team takes two in a row (after the first odd one) then it isn't really hard. Also once you get to sudden death the shootout can only end after the first kick of the pair.
Finally, I don't think there is any real difference in working out when a team has won than in the current system. You still know easily how many penalties a team has left from their initial five. You know how many the opponent has scored. When the first number is less than the second it is game over! Both teams still have to take a minimum of three each before a result can be determined, and referees at all levels will mark down penalties in their books as they are taken so they'll likely be the most clued up on the shootout and the scenario - it's the players I fear will be more clueless/dozy! | | | |

Aye, you're probably right, it's just I can see players and refs getting into unnecessary disputes due to sequencing issues where either party doesn't have pen & paper to hand to tick the kicks off
The tension and emotion of these situations can do crazy things to people's heads!
