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. |

For some reason Alibert didn't spot that either.'"
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. |

| Quote: Offside Monkey "Next time you're at the game, look out for it when the defence is trying to move up extra fast. The ref will go back a bigger distance, more like 12 metres, the defending players will be eager and have their feet infront of him but he won't blow. The home speccies will swear profusly, but the defending team will actually be back the stated distance.
Its a good tactic by refs to avoid offiside offences being commited.'"
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. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| Quote: Billinge_Lump "I'm always amazed at how 10 metre lines confuse speccies, with many seeming to think that the defensive line should be taken back to the next white line.
This is especially prevalent at Saints with the 20 and 40 metre lines that are about 16m apart.'"
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. |

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

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 |

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. |
