Never venture in the early pages of playoff threads then. Last season the thread for our playoff against Dundee United was littered with shit about away goals 'counting double' and nonsense about if 'away goals count'.

I remember hearing an American who didn't know much about football not being able to get their head round the penalty (which he said was basically like giving a goal) for a handball that the person couldn't really do anything about. I think the rule should be changed to an indirect freekick if non deliberate but arm in unnatural position and direct freekick/penalty if deliberate. It's a tricky situation and a definite grey area. For a handball to be a foul, it has to be deliberate. According to the laws of the game, if a non-deliberate handball prevents a direct goal it's still not a penalty, but just play on. Same if a non-deliberate handball results in a goal being scored, technically the goal should stand. It's rare for these extreme cases to be applied in that way, but this is what's in the laws of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed that's what they now do in the English League Cup, IIRC. My objection isn't away goals but use of the phrase "count double". They don't. On a related note, commentators that bang on about "priceless away goals" in a win-to-nil need to learn basic maths. A team that wins n-0 away from home in the first leg cannot benefit from the away goals rule: If they win or draw the second leg, they go through thanks to scoring more goals. If they lose the second leg <n -0, they go through thanks to scoring more goals. If they lose the second leg n-0, both have scored the same number of goals (that they're away goals is irrelevant) so it goes to ET. If they lose by any other n goal margin, they go out on away goals. If they lose by any margin > n, they go out having scored fewer goals overall.

Can be placed outside the arc but an aerial view would show it encroaching the arc line, and it would be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG.Roma Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Added time inconsistencies piss me off, or more to the point the amount of time the ref doesn't add on when he clearly should. Example, score is 0-1 heading into the 90th minute. Board is held up indicating there will be a minimum of 4 minutes added time. Away team makes a sub and take the piss with how long it takes. Home team equalises in the 92nd minute, cue mad scenes - coaches, subs and fans on the pitch. Game finally restarts in the 94th minute, a few seconds before the ref blows for full time, despite less than 1 minute of the added 4 actually containing any football.

D.A.F.C Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Goal kicks, it should be taken from the side the ball went out on unless it’s over the bar. Then it should be taken from the side the keeper comes back onto the pitch from. So easy to fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Here's a point - why do linesman operate only on the right-hand half of the pitch? No reason they couldn't officiate on the left-hand half, surely. Indeed they could both operate down one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason they couldn't officiate on the left-hand half, surely. It's all down to the referee and their style of officiating. The vast majority cover (from back to front) bottom-right to top-left diagonal; the linesmen then cover the bottom-left/top-right corners. Quote Indeed they could both operate down one side. A diagonal system allows the three officials to most efficiently keep watch on the whole pitch. You'd always have an empty area that is poorly covered by any official.

HibeeJibee Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Aye, but you get my point, in principle there's nothing stopping them running the left-hand sides and the ref the reverse diagonal... or the same side and the ref go parallel in front of the other.
