Do they always go to this much trouble for an offside goal? |

This one looked like it might be copied by other teams, creating a precedent. We did, after all, nick it from the Lilliputians.
I remember a few years ago, there was a bit of a fuss after a tweak to the offside law which saw Fat Sam's team placing players in what would normally have been considered clearly offside positions at free kicks, forcing the defending team to cover much deeper & leading to all sorts of confusion. It went on for a short while before clarification was issued. This one seems to have been nipped in the bud a bit quicker. So it goes. |

It's bullshit though isn't it really, the ball goes over the Shrewsbury wall for £#%&!s sake, even if they hadn't been stood there the keeper would have been favouring that side of the goal and largely unsighted. The reason refs can't agree on it is because interfering with play is now such an elastic concept.
A bit of practive on the training ground to get the timing right and it will make no £#%&!ing difference anyway, although I doubt that will stop Owen going on about it. |

henry used to stand right in the keeper's line of vision all the time. get more annoyed about someone offside not interfering when the defence steps up to catch him offside and then someone else runs through. that is interfering with play, if the whole defence moves because of you. |
