Of course it goes off his opinion of 10m, but he doesn't have to stand at the 10m mark.

The easiest way of changing this is to make every club have a 100m pitch and mark it like they do in American football.

I noticed that on the replay. He grabbed his ankles didn't he, bringing him down.

Yup, it's not even a 'I was going for the ball, honest ref' kind of ankle tap.

I know they do this, but if that was what Alibert was doing, then why did he ask them to go for offside? If he was going back 11metres instead of 10, then its not going to look like that to the video referee, thats what i was saying. I'd imagine the players know by now which referees do this, but it makes it a little confusing for the fans, IMO. It'd make more sense for the referees to go back 10m, and then anyone in front is offside, simple.

Will the pitch at your new ground be full size?

Oh, don't ak me about what Alibert was thinking, I've no idea. I was talking generally.
People are just quick to judge the player offisde based on the ref, not the actual distance back of the player.
A game with fewer penalties will invariably be better to watch, so if a ref can get a team onside more often by whatever means, I'm all for it.

Don't know.
It'll be ours though.

To be fair to him, Wilkin did get out of the line fast, but his back foot was alongside Alibert when the ball was played

I've got a suspicion it isn't, which is a bit ridiculous IMO.

it might be a bit smaller rogues...because we wont have a soccer team sharing it as well.

err...um..i knew..i was only testing..

All plans show it as being full size.

I am sure the criteria for a RL stadium is that the pitch is full size; especially one with no constraining factors, i.e brown belt land.

I thought the original plans showed it being short?

edit: Sorry, just looked again and I think you are right.
