The constant needs for EVERYTHING to be about them within the fanbase winds me up as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birstall Owl Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Keepers being allowed to take a goal kick from either side of the box to speed up the game, has had the opposite effect and slows it down as if they are trying to slow the game down they always go the the furthest side of the 6 yard box. Also keeper being allowed to play to CB in the box, for teams like City it's great but what happens is (again to waste time) keeper sets up to play to CB's, finally realises there is nothing on and then waves everytbody up field so he can go long. That's what he was going to do all along but he's just wasted 30 seconds on the pretence that Steveange were going to play out from the back like prime Barca 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree with this. Also it's not like you can choose which side to take a corner from when attacking so I don't see why a keeper should be able to change which side they take a goal kick from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyCraig Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Deciding to join in a song at the top of your lungs only for it to fade off immediately and leave you singing on your jacks. Very awkward. Always been the case of course but nowadays your Grandson can film it, and it's forever. And he's still laughing, little 5h1t. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the game I went to tonight we all knew the bloke was offside, he plays on and gets injured challenging the keeper. The linesman then slowly raises the flag. I would love to know why they have been told to do it. I think the point is that, now we have VAR to look back at the passage of play, if the flag goes up incorrectly it'll stop the play and potentially prevent a legitimate goal. By allowing the attack to develop even if the assistant thinks it's offside, they won't be adversely affecting the passage of play. And you can't really blame the linesman for an injury occurring - the players have to be responsible for their own actions/movements on the pitch. In the moments of an attack the players often don't look for the flag first, and they don't always hear the whistle either. In any case, they've actually altered the guidance to officials for this season, with the now flag only being delayed if the call is very tight or if there's an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.
