Can someone please clarify this for me? Maybe its because I'm Welsh, but I'm having difficulty getting it absoloutley clear in my mind, from only what the good book say's...
If a defender has gone down injured, close to his own goal line, and the attacker if just passed the half way line when he gets the ball, the defender is still keeping him on-side, despite the fact that he is down injured, and not interfeering with play? Right?
Secondly, the same situation, but the defender has gone OFF the field of play by the touchline / goal line, he is still keeping him onside as he has not had permission to leave, and therefore, must be cautioned? Riiight?
Basically, if a player is off without permission, he counts as the second last defender?
MAy sound like silly questions, but putting them down makes it clearer in my head!
