In a recent game I was in, I was on the line and out flag up for offside. No doubts about decision.
Ball went out from offside player for a throw in. Kept my flag up but referee still missed me.
Throw in taken but went straight to the team that was originally offside but was tackled for this time went for a throw in his favour.
I genuinely did not know if I should keep flag up for offside still, or drop it as ball has gone out for defending team throw in and has since restarted play (throw in taken).
On this occasion, I kept flag up and defending team point out flag to referee who blows to stop the throw in and looks at me "asking" what's up.
Explained offside prior to original throw.
He gave the offside.
I was right in front of away team benches who haven't been quiet at all and felt if I'd just dropped it they'd probably question any other decision we'd given (be fair, they already were).
Was I correct to keep it up or should I have dropped it after the throw in? He did not acknowledge the flag or myself once until that point.
