Laws of game
Scenario
Player is standing in an offside position, another player shoots on goal, his shot is straight into a defender which then deflects to the player in an offside position.
Is a deflection considered the same as an intentional pass back by the defending team to a player offside.
Linesman flagged offside and the ref over ruled him after consultation, who is right?

Re: Laws of game
Above description is correct on the laws. Maybe the ref felt it wasn't a "deflection".spooky1972 wrote:Gristy wrote:unintentional deflection = player offsidespooky1972 wrote:Scenario

Re: Laws of game
I would've thought if the attacker was in an offside position when the ball is kicked, and the ball comes off a defender or even rebounds of the post and goes directly to that attacker, is he not gaining advantage by being in offside position ? therefore would that be offside ?
I would've said the linesman was correct.

Re: Laws of game
Off the post - offside
Off the defender (deflected) - offside
Ball played by the defender - onside

Re: Laws of game
The answer is in your first sentence - the player is in an offside position, someone has a shot, it deflects of a defender to that player, he is offside.spooky1972 wrote:Scenario

We start getting too technical and adding other scenarios will only confuse things.
Too often we see the striker who knows he is in an offside position, and is too lazy to run back onside, hoping to gain unfair advantage.

yeah it was at HQ. It didn't affect the out come but the linesman did officiate offside and the ref over ruled him. The Ref used Vardy as a reason as to why the goal was allowed, even after we explained the difference from an intentional and unintentional pass.

Re: Laws of game
Even more rumors about ref decisions is the story coming out of a Sat Div 2 game. Team were 1-0 up, the goal keeper was taking a goal kick, he was taking his time, and a free kick given in the box against him. The free kick then resulted in a goal and the points shared as the ref blew the final whistle.
Isn't it against the rules to issue a free kick when the ball is not in play?
Since when is time wasting a free kick?

Re: Laws of game
looks like those teams confirmed the result so must be happy, but you are correct, it is not a free kick. just a caution to hurry up.spooky1972 wrote:Even more rumors about ref decisions is the story coming out of a Sat Div 2 game.

Re: Laws of game
Can't give a free kick for time wasting. Unless you include the IDFK for the keeper holding the ball for more than 6 seconds.spooky1972 wrote:Even more rumors about ref decisions is the story coming out of a Sat Div 2 game.

Re: Laws of game
This 6 second rule I wish someone would explain to Fed ref Gary Mooney. Our cup semi v Metro the keeper held the ball for an eternity, our players were appealing for at least 5-10 seconds after he just stood there holding the ball already for at least 10 seconds prior.God is an Englishman wrote:Can't give a free kick for time wasting.

Instead, Gary tells our players to "shut it" and get out of his (the keeper's) way - they weren't impeding him anyway, they even stood aside metres apart gesturing him to release the ball!

Re: Laws of game
The Slovakia keeper on Monday was doing the same. At one point it got up to 15 seconds.
