TV Tom Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Looks off side to me but so what, we’ve had perfectly good goals chalked off for off side or fouls, generally evens itself out over the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt many on otib would know what active meant in this context, although all would know what onside means. I rest my case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex-BCFC's reasoning is not illogical. A season may be too short to measure. Luck does even itself out over a period of time. Luck can be measured. It is the decisions and occurrences in football that you/we/the team cannot affect because they are uncontrollable. If its controllable it is not luck. And thus luck over time occurs to teams good or bad in equal measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working harder does not affect luck, thus luck affects all teams of any standard in equal measure over a period of time. This is an exceptional simplistic definition of luck. Luck is not about the uncontrollable. It's about how you react (i.e. the controllable reaction in your terms) to the uncontrollable. Hence, poor teams get bad luck; and good teams get good luck. For what it's worth, my view is that there is no such thing as luck in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more we train the luckier we get … No that is a controllable. Poor teams and goods teams experience good or bad luck itself in the same measure . This is luck.

I must admit I was desperately trying to think of an "uncontrollable" when I first read your post. I failed! But your video is a good example. Having said that, I imagine a good coach will tell their players "If you see a foreign object on the field of play that could mess with you or the ball, then get rid of it!" or "Point the laws of the game out to the referee as quickly as possible".

Freddie Sears … Is an out there example of an uncontrollable. Referees decisions, their errors should be a an uncontrollable - Teams do not control the officials error, although many try.
