What's the rule? (10 Viewers)

[Nick]

When their goal was given offside we went to play a quick one from the free kick while their players were fucking about but the ref made us wait until all of their players were back.

What's the rule on this now?

Rule is give the advantage to Leeds

Officials were horrendous tonight. Not that it would have made any difference.

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

There you go

 

[lord_garrincha]

If Kitch yells... OFF.

 

[Nick]

There you go

Why did he stop it then?

 

[skybluecam]

Realistically it was the right decision wasn't it, especially given the amount of time the ref took to disallow the goal.

Why was it?

 

[Brylowes]

Yes I think so, with the delay in ruling it out it appeared to everyone the goal had been given, so in that respect they had every right to celebrate the goal.

 

[skybluecam]

Why was it?

Because most of the Leeds team were celebrating the goal that appeared to have stood.

Sometimes a bit of common sense is required; that's why the referee always has discretion.

Where is the rule that says you can celebrate a goal and be allowed to get back before it’s given? Too much of this. Same as stopping the game so a player can do their shoelaces or have a lie down. Yet they were allowed to take quick free kicks all game.

It was never given. There’s nothing that says everyone has to be paying attention FFS that’s on them.

That's why I'm asking what the actual rule is.

It wasn't a goal, it was offside so free kick us.

Here’s the rules. They weren’t applied at all:

[David O'Day]

good question actually, also when did they bin off yellow cards for playing on after you know a foul/offside has been given

james "scored" after he clearly knew the ref had stopped the game and earlier in the season that was a yellow yet nothing was even said to james

Come on

Every team would have started celebrating that goal

What the referee did was the fairest way to officiate the situation.

Where the rule that says you’re allowed the entire team to have a cuddle before a goal is given? They celebrated despite it not being given. That’s on them. It was blatantly offside.

The goal wasn't given. The ref didn't point to the centre circle did he?

I can't see what rules there are to say we couldn't take that quickly (not that we would have scored )

Ref was clearly within his rights to do what he did, and it was correct.

Where is this from?

The ref should have booked an out half their team for stopping a restart if you want to get pedantic.

Oh, "in the spirit of the game"

the laws of the game

Which law?

 

[skybluecam]

Which law?

LOTG allows him to do that, so the decision is correct.

Decision can only be wrong if it's not within the LOTG.

Could the referee have let them take it? Yes he would have been within his rights to. But no ref would let that happen.

Which law of the game? If you want to try that loophole then refs can do anything they want and say "it's in the spirit of the game" and using your logic, be correct.

No, because they wouldn't be "within the framework of the laws of the game".

 

[skybluecam]

Lotg allows a quick free kick

Yes, both decisions would've been allowable, but basically all refs will use discretion there and allow the other team to get back.

The whole idea of a quick free kick is to do it when the other team isn't switched on.

 

[skybluecam]

The whole idea of a quick free kick is to do it when the other team isn't switched on.

That's fine when the defending team is out of position due to good attacking play (eg. when a cycnical foul stops a counter) but for situations like this it seems obvious to me that it is only fair to allow the team to get back in position.

 

[Johhny Blue]

There you go

That’s not really a rule. A quick free kick is always at the referee’s discretion. I can see both arguments here.
