I just want youngsters to understand the difference between "have" and "of". "He should of scored a goal." Aaaaaaaaarrrrgggghhhhh!!!!!!!!!! Edit: Honestly, I once saw a journalist for one of the tabloids use "of" instead of "have". Shocking.

That’s the very definition of “inclusive”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of Scottish footballs what if he could have and his clubs addressed his personal problems - tragic loss to football. Was a shadow of the player he was when he played for Falkirk but the occasional glimpse of what a phenomenal player he was could be seen now and again. It was shown when Falkirk got a free kick up to 40 yards out. The opposition were all back, 2 players on the goal line, a wall and terrified. They knew all to well what he could do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Weir Tony Parks John Clark Chris Waddle Jackie McNamara Scott Arfield Any others? John Burridge played in the 1971 Anglo-Italian Cup final... Obviously not a serious suggestion but it sounds like it was a lot of fun: "The first final was abandoned early due to violence, with Swindon Town declared the winners. During its time the tournament had a reputation for violence between fans, and also between players on the pitch." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 What competition was it that the 18 yard line was extended right across the pitch (like ice hockey), and you could only be offside beyond that line? Was that the Texaco Cup? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the Texaco Cup?Subbuteo pitches used to have that line. It wasn't at 18 tho it was a good bit further out.... Maybe 25 or 30. Unsure how accurate subbuteo pitches were. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited to add: Unadopted experiments[edit] During the 1973–74 and 1974–75 seasons, an experimental version of the offside rule was operated in the Scottish League Cup and Drybrough Cup competitions.[100] The concept was that offside should only apply in the last 18 yards (16 m) of play (inside or beside the penalty area).[100] To signify this, the horizontal line of the penalty area was extended to the touchlines.[100] FIFA President Sir Stanley Rous attended the 1973 Scottish League Cup Final, which was played using these rules.[100] The manager of one of the teams involved, Celtic manager Jock Stein, complained that it was unfair to expect teams to play under one set of rules in one game and then a different set a few days before or later.[100] The experiment was quietly dropped after the 1974–75 season, as no proposal for a further experiment or rule change was submitted for the Scottish Football Association board to consider. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
