dan_lcfc Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Just played a game which i won 2-1. On scoring the second goal I got the usual rif raf in the commentary saying the Alfreton players feel agrieved at that one and should that goal have stood etc etc. Also In the post match analysis, under the refs performance it said something like, contravesially (spelling?) allowed the goal to stand in the 83rd minute. And I got an email saying that the Alfreton coach has risked the wrath of the FA for blasting the ref. All of this is perfectly fine by me (I still get the 3 points ) but the thing is, the ball actually deflects off of one of the alfreton players on the way through. Meaning that my player cant be offside. Or at least thats how Ive interpreted the rule. The thing that I would be more agrieved about is the linesman's position in the following picture. http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/1300/offsideb.jpg Fergie rant anyone?

Tubey84 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I haven't actually seen an incorrect offside decision yet. Not one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmeee17 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 It is offside as deflections don't count. Only intentional back passes do. Or at least this is what I have thought all this while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabowabo Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I don't think deflections count either... as long as your player kicks the ball, the active player behind their defensive line will be offside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The defender has to have played the ball. The position of officials is probably the thing I get worked up about the most Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmeee17 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 What's wrong with his position? Maybe I am missing something blindingly obvious but he looks only slightly out of position to me :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
