EPL 2022/23


Recommended Posts

A statement win for United. The statement being that enjoyable though it was, their banter period is over. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And, while we are at it, a day where he actually scored a goal is the best day to heap further scorn on Jack "Jack Jack" Grealish. Running across the pitch in the middle third for as long as a it takes to get a foul simply isn't going to cut it son.

Man City’s club mascot scores a goal, and acts like he’s the man. Why oh why didn’t they just buy a nice wee goat and keep £99,999,750 in the bank? 

They would struggle to get a fifth of their money back now. Telly pundits keep on coming up with laughable reasons to justify his standing in the game. The highest paid sand dancer of all time.

On a darker note, the entire Everton FC BoD being forbidden to attend today’s game due to a credible threat to their safety is a helluva state of affairs.

Especially when Frank Lampard will be allowed to cruise around pretending he's a football manager

So is the only consideration of 'interfering with play' actually touching the ball ? 

No, there's also interfering with an opponent. https://www.theifab.com/laws/latest/offside/#offside-offence

  • preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or
  • challenging an opponent for the ball or
  • clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or
  • making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball

Not sure any of Rashford's opponents were interfered with/impacted enough...

He's running to collect the pass...how that's not interfering with play I'll never understand...imagine st Mirren score a goal like that at Ibrox....would it stand?

f**k off.

c***s about 5’9 at absolute most, and I refuse to believe any differently. 

It’s true. He’s 6’1” of prime, Barclay’s beef according to both wikipedia and the premier league website. It’s going to take me a wee while to get my head around this revelation.

As much as you might like being near the ball to be classed as interfering with play, it's only an offside offence if you play the ball or interfere with an opponent. So it's a question of which bullet point above are you saying Rashford should be penalised for?

Also the IFAB page for law 11 lists this in the FAQs:

An attacking team player in an offside position (A) runs towards the ball and a team-mate in an onside position (B) also runs towards the ball and plays it. The first player (A) does not touch the ball and does not impact any opponent’s ability to play or challenge for the ball. What is the referee’s decision? 

The referee allows play to continue as the attacking team player (A) has not committed an offside offence.

Yep, but when you’ve pocketed the cash he has from the game, he can afford to indulge himself and not give too much of a toss when it goes pear shaped.
