Refereeing a local division 1 game last Saturday, give a a free kick just down from the corner of the 18 yard box, sorting wall out, sorting the pushing a shoving in the box out, turn to the FK taker blow the whistle kick taken brilliant out swinging header and attacking centre half rises around the penalty spot, headed towards goal, keeper well beaten!!!! To my horror, there is a little old man walking across the goal line behind the keeper!!!! Keeper was never going to get the ball, ball flies in top corner a few inches away from the old guy!!! Team go away celebrating, other team start shouting at me!! I'm thinking sh** sh** sh**what do I do, it all happened so quick I didn't have time to stop play before I noticed it, no one else noticed him. I call the keeper and the captain over and said listen guys, keeper, you were never in a million years going to get any where near the ball, and captain imagine if this happened to you and I disallowed your goal, much to my surprise both of them accepted it!!! 2 mins later I was the best ref they've ever had for giving a great advantage which they scored from!!! Definitely one I got away with there!! I'm assuming LOTG I should have disallowed the goal and made them re take the FK ??
