Bristol City v Wrexham

[RefereeX]

The Bristol City fans have the pitchforks out.

An excellent compilation of correct decisions to showcase Reubyn's talents and I say that as someone who actually has a soft spot for Bristol City, and should I ever make it to that level (or more likely, should they ever drop to my level) I would probably have to declare a COI because there are photos of me in a City shirt at Wembley for the Hull playoff final.

Reuben’s rise from the time he started to where he is now is remarkable, but as the old saying goes, if you’re good enough you’re old enough!

Very inspiring story behind him too if you've ever heard him speak about his foster parents and how he got in to refereeing!

Yes, heard about his story last year when he came to our RA meeting.

Not offside in my opinion.
Meets none of the 4 interfering with an opponent conditions
By: • preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball
by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or • challenging an opponent for the ball or
By clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or
making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball.

So while the attacker was in an offside position he could not be considered interfering with an opponent as written in Law11

The AR obviously did not see enough to flag immediately and held his ground rather than the clear goal signal suggesting all is not well. Comms must have sorted it (nor shown on videos) with the referee clearly seeing that the PIOP did not interfere with an opponent. Good refereeing team work IMO
