Or would this be seen as gamesmanship? Probably a good chance of being an own goal screamer into the top corner with our luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would offer an interesting alternative to wind the clock down rather than keeping the ball in the corner. Keeper could just keep chucking it to a selection of defenders who could head it back.

Seems no one copied in O'Donnell or Fielding on the drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse With No Name Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 On 13 February 2016 at 21:51, Dave Storr said: Hi Guys, can I help you with this one ....... It is an offence by a goalkeeper if he: touches the ball with his hands after it has been deliberately kicked to him by a team-mate That means kicked with any part of the foot, nothing above it. However, if he circumvents the law by flicking it up with his foot then heads it, it is still and offence for which an indirect free kick is given. The Laws of Association Football gives you the full Laws of the game and the interpretation of the laws, but I am willing to assist as an ex-licenced referee instructor. Only if the goalkeeper then picks it up, its not an offence in itself to flick it up and pass back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 The referee might want to consider applying the rules on cheating and dissent next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then continued a barrage toward the officials without knowing the rules. Awaits the 'yea but...' posse. Well the fans weren't alone. The City players also protested to the referee. Did they not know the rules either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, just doing the right thing (as were the fans) and putting an element of doubt in the ref's mind - setting it up for the next time he has a marginal (not suggesting that was) call to make.

Has it become one of those unenforced laws though? There appeared to be a clear back-pass in one of the matches on Sky yesterday afternoon, but apart from a bit of desultory arm-waving, no one seemed to bother very much. Rather similar to the eight-second rule. Has an indirect free-kick ever been awarded for a keeper taking too long to clear the ball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8 second rule (thought it was 6) is a bit more blurred though, at one point yesterday O'Donnell must have had the ball in his hands for near 15 seconds, but had anything been given it would have been very harsh as I think the key part of that rule is whether there is "safe release" and with a player walking infront of him there was only "unsafe release" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
