He's clearly offside. Debatable that the defender is playing him on, but even if he is, he's the only 1 player that is as he's further advanced than the keeper. I love how passionately people wear their sky blue tinted glasses, but I've said it a thousand times and it's a FACT, he was offside. Man utd at Wembley on the other hand

“Playing him on” is not debatable as he was blocking a shot on goal

Think that’s harsh it was a pretty close call with a ricocheting ball.

He doesn't, but penalties are often saved or missed (there is a difference in my book) and not a given goal, just a given opportunity.

A keeper is nearly always on the goal line unless coming out to claim the ball, in which case the ball has already been played, so I think maybe the linesman was just concentrating on the last defender and mentally ignored the keeper.
You can see from post 100 that it's poor defending because the keeper is trying to cover off a shot from EMC, and also the cross to Allen (I think it is). At this stage Haji is not a threat unless he is played on (which he was). Looking at it on stills is one thing but in real time ....

Before I retired at work the saying was you may not respect the person but respect the position they hold.

It is not a criticism of the way FL reacted. More a criticism of how our fans have reacted to FL's red. FL will have a choice, plead his innocence or take it on the chin. I suspect he will take it on the chin.

The ref didn't manage the game well and it unravelled for him. But it was a difficult game to manage as both teams were at it. OK Burnley maybe more than us. He made mistakes but also got a lot right, although both teams and fans will contest that.

One of the problems was both teams were doing stuff off the ball

Well I’d expect a red if he used threatening or abusive language. If he were simply just critical, a yellow perhaps but a red is OTT.

The whole debate depends on what was said. Considering we haven’t appealed and taken the one game assume it wasn’t worth it

Should try it, ask for a hearing where they have to explain how what Lampard said wasn't true!

Well we'll have to agree to differ, but politely, you're completely ignoring the control element here.

Their player isn't in any position to be in control of the ball, and that's the key part of deliberately played. It's an attempted save, there's nothing else he can do from the position he's in, he's just trying to stop the ball from going in the goal which is the definition of a save.

If the goalie goes to make a save in exactly that position, and the ball bounces off him and to Wright in an offside position, is Wright offside?

That's exactly what happens on a regular basis with players following in on shots, and of course it's almost always offside.

Anyhow - we differ, and it's not a big deal. Fair enough, I'll shut up now.

If an outfield player stops a shot it is a block and not a save. If a GK stops a shot it is a save.

If a defender blocks a shot and intended to block a shot and then the ball goes to an opponent the player isn't offside. It is down to how the ref interprets the play.

Yes. We went through the same thing a couple of weeks ago. Some people just don't understand the rule.

Screenshot from IFAB below, going through almost exactly this scenario.

Just for complete clarity, the defending player here is the the one on his knees attempting to stop EMC's shot from going into the goal, the offside player is Wright.

In the rules, as far as I can see it, this is a 'save', defined by IFAB as "An action by a player to stop or attempt to stop the ball when it is going into or very close to the goal using any part of the body except the hands/arms (unless a goalkeeper within their own penalty area)".

Now you could argue that it was 'deliberate play' rather than a save, but in the rules that can only occur if the player has 'control' of the ball. That's very debatable given the pace the ball was struck at, the distance of the defender from the ball, and the fact that he wasn't on his feet when it hit him.

Without control, it cannot be deliberate play. If it's not deliberate play, a player in an offside position who receives the ball, is offside.

Now you're absolutely entitled to an opinion on it, and I enjoy the debate, but politely, you're not the sole arbiter of facts here. If you want to break down which bit of the rules here people (including me) don't understand, then please do.

It's not as much fun as pulling apart a judicial review bundle, but in the absence of SISU, and with no footy until Monday, it'll have to do.

(My actual solution to all this btw, make offside, offside, and do away with all this active/passive deliberate play/save bollocks. Dinosaur, I know! Like Clough said though, if you're not interfering with play, what are you doing on the pitch!?)

Wants to be available for West Brom I guess. Can he still participate in pre match and half time team talks?

No, not allowed in the technical area at all (not sure if allowed in the stadium).

Oh fairs I stand corrected thanks for that.

So in reality he has an ear piece to Joe Edwards who just discuss with him and does what Lampard watches while he watches the clubs stream. Doesn’t sound that bad
