Who is a lot of you?

Edited to add, how many times have a team been offside in their own half. Happened to us today today apparently.

From where I was stood today, quite a lot of people in the Sieve could benefit from having a read.

Have you read it?

These changes regarding offside are one of a few revised laws for this season. They were used in the euro's for the first time. The essex fa website did have a breakdown of these so probably worth a look.

Well, there you go. I'll hold my hands up I didn't think you could be offside in your own half and was one of those having a good moan up!! You learn something new every day!!!

IMO... another pointless rule change that confuses the 99% of supporters.

I cant understand what passing back at kick off brings to the game either

It's not really a rule change. It's just clarifying where he free kick can be taken from.
I've seen us have players penalised in the same way before, but the free kick was taken on the half way line.
