Offside rule exploitation

[stewie_griffin]

Based on the linesman’s decision in the last 2 old firm games he does it because even being 5 yards offside in Scotland playing for Celtic doesn’t mean he will be called offside.

At least var changes that

Said it before, go back to the old offside rule. Hate the ambiguity of the current rule.

I was more annoyed at those subhuman rats attempting, twice, to take a free kick awarded against us for offside from our half.

McCoist commented he never knew the rules had changed and was laughing.

It's typical of the Scottish media & press to talk their players up. The three Japanese players are no exception. If they were the superstars that they are being made out to be then they wouldn't be playing in the SPL.

Groundhog Day

Since 1887, Groundhog Day has been a beloved American celebration in which seasonal weather predictions are left in the hands of a groundhog.

The superstitious observance began in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania — where Punxsutawney Phil got his name and start as a rodent meteorologist.

Each year on Feb. 2, thousands of spectators travel to the small town and gather at Gobbler’s Knob park to view Punxsutawney Phil’s prediction in real time. They call it Celtic park as well.

The whole offside law is a load of bollocks as it stands and it needs fixed. No surprise the bheasts try to exploit it, they are dodgy bastards that will do anything they can to pervert justice.

This tactic from the scum yesterday was doing my head in.

Furuhashi was standing miles offside, easily several yards offside. They would then try gey a ball over the top for a runner, which meant furihashi had a ridiculous head start on our defenders. He was nearly on the penalty spot on one occasion about 5 yards ahead of our defence, when a cross was put into the baldy guy to try put back across to him. Walker says "he's not interfering with play". Well what the %^*& is he doing loitering around that position and distracting the keeper?

Same thing at the chance he did get called offside for, initially he's standing miles offside.

Blatant manipulation of a rule by the scum. Its not like he's been involved in play and coming back from an offside position, it's deliberately standing in an offside position to gain an advantage. Doing things like this is in very very poor sport, IMO. Not surprising from a low life organisation though

The biggest problem or issue is that when they are miles offside the linesman doesn’t put his flag up.

They knew who the linesman was, his form and were happy to gamble he would bottle any decision that cost Celtic yesterday. Conor was never raising his flag of any of those moves hit the net.

Couldn't care less about sportsmanship, especially in an Old Firm game.

I think big Lundstram would agree.
