Menace, it was not meant to be anything other than thought provoking and as to the reasons I may say what I said, I viewed the video once and once only, that is how I make a call on a Saturday and that is how a decision should be based. time on the clock is irrelevant as we should all make the same call min 1 or min 80, score is irrelevant also for reasons I have discussed before ! For me it looked like the player tried to catch the ball one handed and yes missed it , did it hit the bar or his hand first. Not C & O , did the player in front stop any immediate advantage, ? not for me, scrum call,
I no longer referee and I'm in to my second year of coaching (players) I dont visit this site as often as I should but I do find that you guys are maybe over annalising things. Yes, good for classroom but view the video once and make a call, that's what I would be interested in, then we can discuss reasons for the call xxx
