Er, yes you are and no you don't.

How many times have you seen a Sky game where the ref has blown for offside against the defence when even one or two players in the line are clearly in front of him? Maybe not often but it does, and should happen.

Not impeding or tackling, but in front of the 10 metre line set by the ref, gaining an advantage unfairly, and offside.

Exactly. If wingers or centres are offside they are reducing the attacking side from going out wide with the ball and forcing them down the middle to the onside players. That is a penalty

But if the ref doesn't think an advantage has been gained he can let the game continue in order to allow the game to flow. From my position on the sidelines I can say that If the ref had blown up every time fc had a man offside it would have been a hell of a lot more than 12 penalties. Did you not hear the hallelujahs coming from our crowd when he gave one???
In fact yes you are correct if he had blown his whistle for every offside infringement made it would have had a bearing on the game-we'd have finished with a much bigger margin-we'd have had even more possession and field position. You got in our half four or five times all game off your own play-that fact doesn't change.

didnt hear any noise from your fans until crabtree scored! you were very quiet! (probably expecting to be 20points up at ht)

Be a totally different story on Sunday

You really are myopic. All we ask is that referees apply the rules consistently to both sides. This patently did not happen on Monday. As has been mentioned many times on this forum we have not said that he cost us the match, but he did cost us the opportunity to make more of an impact.

When I was reffing, if the outside backs were creeping, I'd let the defending skipper know, I'd also tell him that I'd wait until the 5th tackle to penalise them for it. It only usually failed to work if I happened to be speaking to a thick skipper.

So you reckon you were 6 times more disciplined than we were right up until 30 seconds from the end? Never offside even once? Markers perfectly square at every PTB?

OK then.

We were more disciplined yes. And I've already commented about the offside-can't really comment on markers as cant tell from where I was sat.

Do they allow female refs lol. From Hull

Yeah it is always difficult to tell if they are square listening to a match on the radio isnt it

Hilarious

Funnily enough the only time we heard you lot was when you were swearing!

Well done for avoiding the question.
