PussEKatt Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 IMHO,the offside rule should be the same as the ball going out of play rule. The "whole of the player"must be completely offside,otherwise,play on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually agree with you to an extent, but it wouldn’t solve the problem of them measuring it to the millimetre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 He's going to get in big trouble for this but can't disagree. It's bad enough in the Premier League but the one of the best things about escaping the Championship was getting away from the appalling officiating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I k ow it would have benefitted villa but another one for me yesterday where they should introduce the no follow up rule to penalties Incredible effort to save that penalty but still results in a tap in, the odds are so stacked in favour of the attacker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost fell straight to him. I do think Zaha should have been carded for mocking Martinez. Had I been Emi I would have knocked the little **** teeth out after what he did.

I didn’t even know that having a ‘no follow up to penalties’ was a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy54 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 If that was the rule in the 1975 LC Final, Ray Graydon would not have been able to score our winning goal V Norwich I remember it well ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came up a few years back at something that made it sound like FIFA do an annual rule brainstorming meeting and they do things like how they've changed where the attackers can be for short goal kicks whatever that rule is and where van Basten always floats his sin bin idea Disagree with it being the same as a free kick, I think there's more skill in saving a penalty and then also there's only 2 people in the area and after a save one of them is on the floor... I just think a penalty is stacked so heavily in favour of the striker that it would offer at least some balance - but then I also believe that a pro footballer should be able to hit an unsavable penalty and its usually nerves or them **** about that causes it to be saved 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely agree that pro footballers should be striking unsavable penalties though anyway in 90% of the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Always amusing when players don't know basic rules of football. Just watching highlights of our game and that Watkins disallowed goal in first half...he's off anyway but Ollie is frantically point at last defender and saying he's level. However the keeper is ahead of both so it dosen't matter. I knew that at age of 10 so surely pro players know it as it's not some obscure rule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
