When did this become a thing?
I was watching Hogg do it the other week and thought it was strange and don't remember it being something that has always happened. Twice in the Arsenal game yesterday two players on the side that were taking kick off got flattened trying to block a striker coming towards them.
Why is this being allowed by referees when it is blatant obstruction?

Why is this being allowed by referees when it is blatant obstruction? Its an addition to the pass back to the keeper followed by some dancing in front of the striker closing down, whilst clearly looking over your shoulder and just obstructing him and the one where you bend slightly at the waist, stick your arms and your arse out making no attempt to play the ball as you try to let it run out of play, again clear obstruction. Id say if a keeper or defender cannot play a ball where he has 20 plus yards start on the striker without your 'deeee fence' blocking off the 'ooooo ffence', they are never going to make a quarter back🤔 American ownership influence??? |

Add it to the list -
Throw ins(line outs) 10-15 yards from the 'spot' seems ok
Dead ball kicks or kicking from the area..20+ seconds now ok
Sticking your leg across the ball to win free kick/penalty...is now 'going for the ball'..
Grabbing hold of opponents at free kicks/corners ...now just a free for all...
The 'kiss the wrists, cross the chest...arms up to Allah'.. when entering field of play (even bloody Hogg is doing it now)
Seems all our "FIFA qualified coaches" are teaching the dark arts now rather than player skills..

If you've been tackled and fall to the floor grab hold of the football with your hands and the referee will ALWAYS award you a free kick rather than book you for handball.

Wherever the contact or indeed no contact at all, grab your face and fall over. Keep your hands across your face as long as possible to try and influence the officials, before revealing fuck all 'evidence' of anything other than you being a twat🤔

When taking a corner these days, the ball has to be overhanging the quadrant by less than 1mm. You'd think that the number of times they hit the first defender would alert them to the fact that it doesn't make a blind bit of difference where you place the ball. Just get the bloody thing kicked!

Scoring a goal and then everyone....even the player on the half way line....trotting over to the furthest corner for a joint cuddle for about 2 minutes.
Then walk back as slowly as a kid going back to lessons after the dinner bell goes whilst the referee stands there like a lemon pointing at his watch.
No referee....no! I didn't come here to watch footballers moving at a snails pace. I know you are supposedly adding on the time but that's not what I want. I want them back in position ready for the re-start!
There....got that off my chest now.
Don't get me started on the ref on Saturday being completely ignored when he told one of.the Northampton players being substituted to leave at the far side and doing NOTHING about it. Have some balls man.

When goalkeepers catch the ball and immediately fall to the ground in front of them just to waste time, despite the fact that have not lost their balance or made a particularly arduous save. If you're on your feet that you should have to stay that way if you have the ball under control.

Since this is a thread on ignored rules, HOW COME Hudds Town are seemingly the only club in the entire country who flagrantly ignore the multi-ball protocol at every game?! You can't position a ball in the area directly behind the penalty area (no idea why - but thems the rules!).  -The cones and the Ball Assistants must remain in the same positions for the entirety of the league match
-The use of the multiball system will be managed by the Referee who can, if he/she deems it necessary, order that the multiball system be altered or deactivated, and a single ball system be implemented for the remainder of the league match
-Any failure to follow the multiball protocol will be referred for further investigation and possible regulatory action |

Have some balls man. Easily solved. As soon as the Ref blows his whistle to give a goal, a 30 second countdown clock (yes, nick it from Countdown, complete with the sounds) is started on the scoreboard. As soon as 30 seconds are up, you can kick-off - regardless of where the scoring team are stood. |

If you're on your feet that you should have to stay that way if you have the ball under control. This should already be covered by the 'six second rule'. If not, bring it back and make it 10 seconds, and get that big Countdown clock that I mentioned in my last post going. If the ball's not released by the time the clock has counted down, award a free kick on the edge of the box to the opposition from roughly in line with where the keeper was stood. Dead ball kicks. 25 seconds or it's a corner. Throw ins. 10 seconds or it's turned over. Injured players. Allow the physio on whilst play continues. Other sports manage ok. If someone's taking the piss in the area then they'll either be playing everyone onside, or they'll be offside if deemed to be affecting the play unduly. |

Talking of Saturday..that ref, Woodnob..
9 second half substitutions
3 yellow cards
1 sending off
2 goals scored
dozen 'injuries'
a long delayed penalty
added Time...6 minutes..??
OK, it wouldn't have made any difference to the score..but who is actually keeping count ?

The one that winds me up when there is a bit of a scrum down by the corner flag ( usually late on when one team is time wasting) the linesman always invents a free kick or throw to the the defence. |

The one that winds me up when there is a bit of a scrum down by the corner flag ( usually late on when one team is time wasting) the linesman always invents a free kick or throw to the the defence. It was actually as long ago as 1997 when obstruction was removed from being one of the offences defined explicitly as resulting in an indirect free-kick, and replaced with the offence of impeding - however the definition of impedance INCLUDES obstruction...therefore your pedantry is misplaced! isrscork.com/laws/1997-changes-laws-game/www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-12---fouls-and-misconduct"Impeding the progress of an opponent means moving into the opponent’s path to obstruct, block, slow down or force a change of direction when the ball is not within playing distance of either player.
All players have a right to their position on the field of play; being in the way of an opponent is not the same as moving into the way of an opponent.
A player may shield the ball by taking a position between an opponent and the ball if the ball is within playing distance and the opponent is not held off with the arms or body." |

A straight yellow regardless if they’ve already had a booking. |

Agreed and the ref actually pays attention to him/her having ignored them for the previous 93 minutes! |

Not sure I'd want him to change tbh. |

Few petty ones that annoy me.
1.Goal kicks can now be taken from anywhere in the 6 yards box and not from the side the ball went out.
2. Using subs one at a time if there are 2 or 3 waiting to come on just to stop-start momentum.
3. Referee stopping play for non head injury related 'injuries'. I use the term loosely because I'm sure a broken ankle/arm etc would be obvious. But players roll around holding their leg and then are sprinting within the minute.
4. Players getting subbed off and before their number goes up, run as far away as they can and then walk off across the field - I thought they now has to leave at the nearest point?

The sub thing for me is like on Saturday and every other game these days. There was a break in play for an injury and Northampton were looking to make two changes. Instead of making them whilst the injury was being sorted (and this wasn't affecting the sub decision) the officials wait until play is ready to re-start THEN stop it again for the sub!!! |

Agree with all of those but it’s No 3 that annoys me the most. Players writhing in “agony” and then getting up after a few seconds behaving normally - these should be monitored by the 4th official and the offending player should be red carded in my opinion. |

Defenders having their arms around defenders, and no pens being given. Why not? Mirfin was the first player whom I saw doing it, but it’s now common practice, and wrong.

What about the thing where the goalkeeper has the ball in his hands and moves to the edge of the penalty area to launch it - they ALWAYS carry the ball out of the penalty area with it in their hands before they kick it - and it is never given as a handball like it occasionally was.
Has the rule changed ?

If you're on your feet that you should have to stay that way if you have the ball under control. The Huddersfield Ladies goalkeeper did that at Loughborough last season. Only thing was, she did it so long after she'd actually caught the ball that the referee thought she was injured and stopped the play 😂 |

It wasted time but also stopped the opposition trying to get at them straightaway. |
