My good mate is a Hammer. Liverpool for me. 

West Ham moves on to the fourth round in the FA Cup. They needed a win.

Watch this strike...

Because there are no time outs and the clock doesn't stop, the game has, 'added time' for the purpose of injuries, time wasting, arguing with the officials, etc. not for scoring chances.  As I'm sure you're aware.  

If we added ten seconds to the clock after a stalling call though...

Ooh...damn...I like this one. 

Wouldn't let Wrestlers start jogging around the Circle with 15 seconds left in a 1 point match...

I'm not looking for a poll, or to see what percentage thinks this is a good idea or a bad idea, but I'm trying to brainstorm any unintended consequences here: What if there was a no-saved-by-the-bell rule, like in boxing, where if an official is either counting nearfall or imminent nearfall, and the period clock expires, wrestling continues until either the bottom man has broken the hold, or been stuck?

Again, not looking for a head-count of for-or-against, but more looking for feedback.

In Judo, if you are being held down (equivalent of a pin) you are not  "saved by the bell"
