Game today, blue against yellows
Yellows get a FK about 20 yards from goal. Free kick goes in, misses everyone and goes into the bottom corner. Look across and blue's AR is flagging for offside and I know straight away this is going to be messy.
Go to speak to him to see his reasons for flagging, he said that one of the yellow players was offside when the ball came in, from my position I didn't notice anyone offside, yellow #7 did try and head the ball when the corner came in but missed it and didn't feel he was offside, my first instinct was nobody was offside when the ball went into the net.
In the end I stuck with my instinct and gave the goal, queue the blues going mad.
I felt dammed if I gave it and dammed if I disallowed.
Goal - get complaints from blue players/manager
No goal - get complaints from yellow players/manager because the other teams AR gave it
