Fucking hell guys of course you can.

Doesn't matter what "way" you play it. What matters is the recipient's position when played. You could pass it backwards and the guy could be offside.

This is correct.

It's not

So if you skin the keeper and then square it to a team mate you will be offside unless there are two defenders behind the ball ? Thats stupid.

 

What?

 

If the teammate is ahead of the ball when played, yeah.

I guess technically if you square it to a teammate, then no, but if you play it forward to a teammate, then yes.

Ball wasn't played forward, was it?

That's irrelevant to offside 

Anyway was level.

He has a degree you know.

Also, why is Keith Gillespie a local hero?

Wow! Keith Gillespie?

Jesus, will we have any players left in a few weeks?

Right, so we should keep the shithead?

Random thought: funny, the sound on the BBC webplayer thing for their videos goes up to 11.

Makes perfect sense tbh.

I can see why folk are confused: how many times have we seen an attacker stay deliberately off the pitch in order to avoid being offside? I suppose that is an 'interfering with play' issue.

 

that's different though, an attacker can not be involved, but a defender can be covering if he's right at the opposite touchline.

 

Edit: yes, as Aphro put it.

 

I know that, you plank, I was just saying it's understandable how people could get confused.

It was therefore important to point out the differences for those who were confused

"Matzzerazzi"

So, is this it? Is he going this time? He just has to be annoying as hell and a fucking stroller over his transfer as well.

don´t know. but in sweden telly they talk about that the goal is correct due to the italian that are laying behind the goal. Good game.

 

Doesn't count when he's off the field of play, surely?

That should be BS though, he's clearly still involved. Even though he's just behind the goal line, the goal should be able to stand (which it has, and hopefully for the right reason).

Having referees that are petty as fuck doesn't help.

That is the main problem

Meh we all know what's going to happen... France will scramble some sort of winner with 2 minutes to go.

In before the merg...

Ohhh

I really dread his return to football. It would really upset me if he joined the club of ex player who seem almost forgotten for what they did as players and simply laughed at or hated as managers.

*cough*Souness*cough*

But the 37-year-old

Fucking hell 

Perfect example with Abidal. Evra has been awesome for 2 years now while Abidal has been getting worse,  Evra never gets a game.

Big fan of Benzema though, hope he'll be playing in the Prem as soon as possible. There must be a way for him to have great Euro but for France to fail miserably.

Henry wont play...Benzema instead probably...

Don't know... Domenech is one stubborn mother fucker.

wacka wacka wacka wacka wacka

Anyone see a Romania upset?

Yes please.

Interrr-esting stuff:

So far, only one team per game has scored.
