Rule 3-5 Art. 3 states "The clock shall start with the snap or when any free kick is touched other than first touching by K, if the clock was stopped because:

i. The penalty for a delay of game foul is accepted."

there are a - j as well, but I only put in the appropriate reference.


So I think it is fairly clear that the clock always starts with the snap after a delay of game foul.

This is a question on our yearly test in IL, and the answer is always that after a delay of game foul, the clock shall start on the snap with no exceptions. There is no special working about illegally attempting to consume time...or if there is it is no where to be found in my 2011 rule book...
