rooney was on the other side. ball was being played from 40 yards from the defensive line. cole was stepping up. rooney was charging in the opposite direction. very difficult to spot if rooney was offside or not and hence defenders always get the benefit of the doubt. |

when the ball is played he would have to see Rooney having advanced beyond Cole which is clearly impossible Cole gives him a very close eyeline across the pitch from which to judge from |

Re: I met the ref assesor for the Chelsea game last night
i am not saying they are never wrong but in this instance I feel a bit sorry for him. put yourself into his position.
you look at the ball being played and then look at rooney. at this point ( even 1 sec late ) rooney would be 2 yards ahead of cole because of cole stepping up and rooney charging through. its very difficult to spot that, trust me. And by instinct you always go to with the defensive line. That's why irrespective of laws, defenders will always get benefit of the doubt, because in effect while making the decision the linesman think the attacker is in offside position ( they don't have doubt!! ) |

Re: I met the ref assesor for the Chelsea game last night
I think the thing about assessing referees is that they should be given a bit of leeway with tough calls, things happen really fast and are not always as clear-cut as they seem on the telly.
The worrying thing though is when they can watch a perfectly fair challenge over and over and still get it wrong. Physical contact will no longer be allowed at all in 10 years the way its going. |

I can understand 'inactive' if the player is eight or ten yards from goal, but Drogba was inside the six yard box. |

Know what you mean there, Andy Gray is baffling particularly when he has a go at a ref or assistant for getting something right because he reckons they couldn't possibly have seen they got it right I do think refs should be more accountable and have to give post match interviews etc and I think players would give them more respect if they confessed to the odd £#%&! up now and again |

how can you be inactive when you're trying to get a foot on it two yards out right in front of the keeper??? |

Armchair - I'm over it too. Just thought it's interesting to hear what the refs think about a team performance and attitude and comparing it to how much grief Atkinson got from Fergie and players over the game. When Winter, Poll and the others go on TV to explain their opinion of the decisions, it is just that - their opinion. Except it's not biased in favour of one team, but in the interpretation and understanding of the laws of the game which apply equally to both teams. |

and if these were the only decisions they £#%&!ed up these posts would have more credibility. maybe you could go and talk the assessor for the game at anfield as well and see what £#%&!ing excuses they come up with that balls up. |
