For goodness sake doesnt anyone know the laws of the game. Most of the foot can be on the pitch, so long as part of both feet is on or behind the touchline.

You have contradicted yourself. “Behind the touchline” means the outer and not the inner of the pitch.For goodness sake doesnt anyone know the laws of the game. Most of the foot can be on the pitch, so long as part of both feet is on or behind the touchline.

Which brings me to another point that has always irked me. In childrens football the 'refs' (and I use the word loosely here) always used to penalise a child for lifting their heels during a throw. I feel this might have derived from the same point, that if your feet were over the line, but your heels on the line, but when you took the throw you lifted your heels then it would become a foul throw.Huh? What he’s said makes perfect sense. Behind the line means off the pitch. So, if you have feet on the line or behind the line (off the pitch) the throw is legal. Not contradicted himself at all.
He said “most of the foot can be on the pitch” which it can’t. If most of the foot was over the line (on the pitch) that would be a foul throw. I would be giving that all day long.Huh?

Oh, you mean the good people/volunteers who give up their time so the kids can play football when nobody else will put themselves forward?Which brings me to another point that has always irked me.

We were playing well, we just weren't playing pretty.The most satisfying thing about this game is that we would have lost this last season. The circumstances of this result is heroic.
If we can nick a point at Fratton Park with 9 men playing badly, it begs the question of what can we do playing well?

Trust me-that would be a foul throw. I know this as I am a referee. Maybe the wording needs to be changed as maybe it reads wrongly.No it wouldn't. The law is that 'part of each foot' must be on or behind the line. So a long as even the tiniest part of the heels are on the line it's a legal throw. Like bowling in cricket.
I'm not a referee, but I can't see how that would be a foul throw. The rules state that "at the moment of delivering the ball, the thrower must have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside the touchline." What am I missing?Trust me-that would be a foul throw. I know this as I am a referee. Maybe the wording needs to be changed as maybe it reads wrongly.
Do you mean the foul throw?
Wish now I hadn't posted a reply.

Yes-the ground outside the touch line means not on the “pitch side” of the line. So in Layman’s terms the feet are on the “crowd/outside” area of the pitch.

Is that a church song?One toe over the line sweet Jesus

After several readings, yes. In other words, no encroachment beyond the touch line. Ta.Yes-the ground outside the touch line means not on the “pitch side” of the line. So in Layman’s terms the feet are on the “crowd/outside” area of the pitch. Does that make sense?

Now what are you on about?Except that’s not the FA rule. That’s Adge’s rule. The throw was valid.
I lifted it from the FA site.Except that’s not the FA rule. That’s Adge’s rule. The throw was valid.
