    Law Changes from July 2024

    So does that imply that the 8 second rule is actually to be enforced? Will it start when Pickford catches the ball, or when he stands up after falling on the ground with it? It perhaps means more hoof ball, rather than GKs looking for a "to-feet" pass out.

    Handball DOGSO and goalkeeper

    What differences? DOG or DOGSO, the sanction is the same.

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    What if the injury is feigned so players can go and get a drink and tactical instructions? (Not worth its own thread, but: https://metro.co.uk/2024/03/03/gary-neville-names-man-utd-star-conned-ref-manchester-derby-20390968/ ) Or if the GK is wasting time by not getting back in position...

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    But not it seems when the restart is a dropped ball! Would any of you blow the whistle as you do a dropped ball restart? The whistle is needed to: start play (first and second half of normal play and extra time), after a goal stop play: for a free kick or penalty kick if the match is...

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    I hesitate to prolong this, but this Q and A for law 5 says the referee stops play to allow an injured player to be treated. And how does the referee stop play? By blowing the whistle. There is no justification for saying the referee stops play by deciding to stop play. I'm not surprised that...

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    The whistle is not needed to restart after injury.

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    No it's not. If you have a whistle malfunction, just shout "stop play"!

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    It could be, but probably only if he'd read the special pleading on here.

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    Perhaps because the circumstances are different. The decision to stop play after a foul or after ball hits referee needs a reaction time to blow the whistle. The decision to stop play for a head injury is entirely in the referee's control and, given the law on the restart, he needs to see what...

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    "Least contentious"? Obviously not! As for "imagine Tierney dropping the ball to a Forest player 20 yards out from goal in the 90+ minute for them to score. Klopp would have a seizure", that really would not be helping his case if that had been why he did it, rather than just dropping a clanger!

    Not really. Surely he'd have given it if he'd seen it.

    Some very special pleading going on here to avoid the obvious!

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    It was a Liverpool player who stayed down. I suspect you don't think he was feigning. Or you're getting mixed up with the Forest player being hauled down as the corner came over. I presume Forest will get an apology from Webb, same as Liverpool got for the disallowed not offside goal at Spurs.

    Performance competencies? How many marks do they lose just for getting in the way of play?

    Manchester City v Everton

    For what? I'm wondering if some people only have 3 seconds of the clip rather than 4! Even if Godfrey was "challenging for the ball", it's still SFP for endangering an opponent. When there are red cards flying around for a touch to the face, that VAR - even if they "checked" - didn't think...

    Manchester City v Everton

    Thinking they might not have checked is a sort of comfort blanket for the alternative that VAR is just not fit for purpose (or that two officials on the field and one or two in Stockley Park might have missed a potential VC, or that for whatever reason they "didn't see the right angle"). You can...

    Manchester City v Everton

    You'll need to be more specific about what drives you nuts. People asking whether VAR checked a possible sending off, or VAR checking the incident and deciding that kicking out at a GK's head is not VC? Did they not even think it was worth flagging up "checking possible red card offence"?
