Some of the comments on here make me embarrassed to be a Barnsley fan. Have a word with yourselves you ignorant pillocks. Looks like the assistant called it right anyway, so no doubt you'll all be queuing up to apologise, yeah?
Because it was. They showed a replay with the lines drawn on and he was a yard onside. I assume they’ll show it again at the end of the game.
If he’s level or behind the ball when it is played then he’s onside - so for him to have been offside, yes he would have to be in front of the ball...
Still doesn't excuse the sexist comment. And seems you were wrong anyway. Not that it matters. But it does cheer me up a bit.
I think I was thinking of the other offside thing when the ball is played backwards like us from a corner a few weeks ago
The direction of the ball doesn’t matter (which is why the one the other week was the right decision) but the position of the ball in relation to the recipient does.
Yes I was thinking of the other situation not the one relevant to this. I somehow managed to miss the on screen graphic too
It was a BBC graphic, so he probably refused to watch it on principle. We could no doubt have done the graphic more cheaply.
