So how does this support your argument? Look at the second bullet point.

have part of each foot ON the touchline OR on the ground outside the touchline.

Who wants to be in charge of counting throws on Saturday that don’t start from behind the head?
We can discuss on next weeks throw in thread.

Can we move on from bloody throw-ins now? It's getting REALLY boring!

Yes the ground “OUTSIDE” the touchline means not on the pitch side! So if you like where the assistant referee stands is the “OUTSIDE” of the touchline.

Trust me-that would be a foul throw. I know this as I am a referee. Maybe the wording needs to be changed as maybe it reads wrongly.

I am also a referee (no longer officiating). One of the reasons I became a referee was because of the bad decisions I saw, and the mantra that you shouldn't complain if you are not prepared to do it yourself.

Credit for you for doing it, many complain and moan, and don't actually contribute.

Even if your training/interpretation is wrong, you are still contributing for the good far more to the game than (made up statistic) than 99% that are on here.

Happy to meet up and discuss this rather than dig holes. What level/association are you?

Indeed-always said it that the best referees are always shouting loudest from the stands/sidelines.
What leagues/Country Fa were you associated with? Our paths may have crossed over time?

With apologies to every else fed up of this.

I know that outside the touchline means not on the pitch side. The one word you seem to not be paying attention to is OR. You only need to fulfil one part OR the other.

To simplify it I 'll therefore remove the bit after because as long as you fulfil the first part it'ss not relevant..

have part of each foot ON the touchline

Had to dip your or in didn’t you?
