Constructive as always :rolleyes:

No it doesn't. And you still haven't answered the question. Absolutely no reason for the arm to be there.

Hey, not my fault that I come from a country that knows how many yellow cards lead to a RC :)

You're confused. If I wanted it to be Aussie Rules I'd argue this handling was allowed!

Alright, so what do you think happened?

Okay, so how are you permitting a defender to run up to an attack that's about to head the ball then deliberately stick his arm out in the likely path of the headed ball? You're in favour of rugby-style chargedowns?

Absolutely disgusting - but the punishment is so light. what do we reckon he'll cop? Light fine? Maybe a 2 match suspension? This behaviour is just disgraceful, it absolutely is. 2 adults not only invaded a pitch but got in the face of, intimidated and abused a child. If you think about...

It's would have I get the annoyance....but what's gained by delaying it further? The same time gets wasted when he does want a sub, but now you're frustrating the team. I think @one had a good response. Also, in the final minute or so of the half I start getting very deaf....but then...

It's an offside from the video - keeper grabbed the ball and is walking it out and is also communicating positively with the AR.

Correct

Apply it like advantage. If, say, Blue Team are attacking and the blue defender 40 yards back dissents, you HAVE to stop play rather than let them continue with the ball. The worst case outcome would be if you allowed it to continue and the blue team scored, then you go back and caution for...

Was in 2009 too 1999....1959.....1789........where on earth are people getting the idea that you can run up to a player that's heading the ball and stick your arms into the path of the ball for no reason whatsoever????

video here - AR clearly called an offside AR should have subbed himself off after this - where on earth did he get an offside from here?? Anyway, are people seriously arguing this isn't a foul? With some of the users I can never tell if they're being serious or trolling. runs up and for no...

Be careful with that. Approaches like this are inviting teams to throw hissy fits just to get players sent off. It encourages some of the toxic culture in this game. I mean, yes, there is some scope for considering the reaction, but I'm not entirely comfortable with escalating to a red card...

Why would you be chalking off a goal if it's a goal kick?

Fun times. Just wondering - how close to the GA was the offside? The offside issue is why it's sometimes better to just goal with the goal kick (that, and Sunday League players sometimes throw temper tantrums if you award the offside rather than the GK even if it makes no difference - and...

true, or even just blow the whistle once you see it happening :)

Do you? If I'm in the best position already, moving puts me into a poorer position. You most definitely can see pushes and holding. I've missed very little from that position. It's an equivalent view of 95% of the in-the-box stuff, but even closer and provides a better view of anything right...

Positioning is a numbers game. You want to think about where play is going and where to get the best view of it - but it's also about what's significant. The most significant thing that can happen at a corner is a goal. A ball at goal in-out scenario is reasonably unlikely, but not entirely...
