Looks like the rules should make it offside but the way they are currently worded means it isn't and the decision was correct.

It's the rules that are wrong rather than the officials.

Naw, it’s always the officials, how many times would we have got a result if it wasn’t for either useless or bent officials ( always when playing Salford)

My opinion is your wrong on all aspects there, but hey ho.


So which Man City defender could have got to the ball before Bruno Fernandes? Name him.

The one thing this footage does prove, in case any of us had erased it from our memories, is what a fat b*st*rd Barry Conlon was.

Quoted from Sigone
Think Cloughie also said "if he's not interfering with play what is he doing on the pitch"



As someone who has taken the referee's exam (many moons ago and passed) I did ask the instructor if the ball is played forward and a player is stood in an offside position on the opposite side of the pitch to where the ball is played is he technically interfering with play and he said the exact words highlighted above to me.

Look at the video again and tell us which City player could have got to that ball before Bruno Fernandes.


If Rashford stopped running Akanji wins the ball.  Was the rule change brought in where a player coming back from an offside position not touching the ball *facing away from goal"?  I can recall many scenarios with the same incident like this, maybe players coming back from an offside position but the player that's onside is flagged off.

Its offside as he is interfering with play simple as, yes he hasn't touched the ball but he forcing City defence into making decisions that would affect the game.  This needs clarifying before we see another thing slip into the game, like when a defender is shielding the ball to go out of play, and is obstructing the attacker (the defender hasn't even touched the ball) its just something that has been accepted but that should be classed as obstruction.

The decision was correct in the laws of the game as they stand, but the guidance on the laws of the game in this instance are clearly balderdash.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Also depends on how the officials class interfering with play is, to them it might be when touching the ball (in this scenario) but to me it is interfering with play.  I guess another tweak to the rule is likely.

They have made the offside rule a bit of a joke.

Apart from what happened in this match how many times do we see a player offside receiving the ball but the flag stays down unless a goal is scored.  Really annoying when play continues when you know if a goal results from that move it will be disallowed.

A few years ago the rule changed to , there must be clear daylight between the players to be offside. I thought that was fair and worked well.

BUT

They quickly changed it back for some reason .
