| 1. Author: CrossPar Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 20:56 After a number of weeks of suffering pretty abysmal refereeing, credit to today`s ref (Dan McFarlane) who I couldn`t fault at all. He got all his decisions right and his yellow cards were all spot on. Well done to him. Reply |
| 2. Author: DrumRoad Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 21:04 Mmm What about our 3rd goal that was given by both the ref & linesman & was subsequently chopped off I didn’t know we had VAR @ EEP! I do agree tho, probably the best ref at EEP this season 2022/23 League one Winners Reply |
| 3. Author: dd23 Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 21:10 Agree with that. I think the lino realised he’d made a balls up when the QOTS players pointed it out to him and he was given a chance to amend his error. It was so blatant that I’m surprised the ref didn’t give offside despite the lino. Reply |
| 4. Author: Rigger Al Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 21:25 DrumRoad, Sat 29 Nov 21:04 He was offside Reply |
| 5. Author: veteraneastender Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 21:42 Was amazed no flag - we were right in line in west stand wing, 100% offside. Reply |
| 6. Author: Big T Par Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 22:45 There was a defender on the byline. Reply |
| 7. Author: twin par Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 22:55 Need to see the highlights.Didn’t think at the time anyone was offside. Reply |
| 8. Author: saltonsgonagetu Date: Sat 29th Nov 2025. 23:04 I may be proved wrong but Caceres was almost on the line if so there was not 2 players behind him , so he was off side  Reply |
| 9. Author: Parsweep Date: Sun 30th Nov 2025. 12:43 saltonsgonagetu, Sat 29 Nov 23:04 That`s my thoughts . I reckon it would have been a goal without his intervention. Bobvo Reply |
| 10. Author: fcda Date: Sun 30th Nov 2025. 14:25 Thought he was offside too. It would have been instinctive, but I think he`d left it KRH could have put it in and might not have been offside. The odd thing was how the ref handled it. Never seen that before. Both he and the linesman appeared to give the goal but then listened to the QotS players` complaints and changed their decision. Ultimately the correct decision, but goes against the idea that players shouldn`t complain to the ref. There was another one that looked a little odd against Patrick. Pars player in offside position by about 5 yards when a long ball was played up, makes it clear he`s not challenging. Defender makes a hash of controlling the ball and it breaks to the Pars player who is then given offside. I presume that`s considered first phase? Reply |
| 11. Author: veteraneastender Date: Sun 30th Nov 2025. 19:32 Looking at the highlights I`m beginning to wonder if the disallowed offside goal should have stood ? There is a defender on the goal line on the left - depends on the interpretation of the goalkeeper`s position - he was on his erse behind the line, however I believe that`s considered to be active on the goal line since it was his own momentum that took him there. There was a roughly similar(ish) controversial goal in the 2008 Euros, Italy v Netherlands which was awarded - not sure if that interpretation still stands. Post Edited (Sun 30 Nov 20:10) Reply |
| 12. Author: wee eck Date: Sun 30th Nov 2025. 20:47 Surely the goalie and the defender to the left of the goal played everyone onside? I`m not sure why the goalie was pointing in the direction of the defender when he was appealing against the goal being given. Reply |

| 14. Author: Kdy Par Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 08:12 wee eck, Sun 30 Nov 20:47 The goalie and one defender were still on the pitch when KRH shot. The goalie was onside, poor from the officials. Reply |
| 15. Author: veteraneastender Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 08:50 "The goalie and one defender were still on the pitch when KRH shot. The goalie was onside, poor from the officials." The keeper was behind the goal line when Caseras touched it in. It depends if that is considered as still being on the field of play, or not. Reply |
| 16. Author: Kdy Par Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 08:54 veteraneastender, Mon 1 Dec 08:50 He was, but wasn’t when KRH hit his shot…. Reply |
| 17. Author: veteraneastender Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 08:59 But KRH wasn’t the last touch. Reply |
| 18. Author: Kdy Par Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 09:01 veteraneastender, Mon 1 Dec 08:59 That is the key touch when looking at an offside. Reply |
| 19. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 09:10 Just to be clear, the goalie is still considered to be a `last defender` despite being off the pitch. It would be crazy if a defender could play an opponent offside by simply stepping off the pitch. Only if he had left the field with the ref`s permission would he be discounted eg if he was having an injury attended to. Reply |
| 20. Author: veteraneastender Date: Mon 1st Dec 2025. 09:10 So an attacker on the goal line who has less than two defenders on the goal line is onside ? That`s not my understanding of the rules. "Just to be clear, the goalie is still considered to be a `last defender` despite being off the pitch. It would be crazy if a defender could play an opponent offside by simply stepping off the pitch. Only if he had left the field with the ref`s permission would he be discounted eg if he was having an injury attended to." The keeper did not deliberately step off the pitch in order to render an opponent offside - it was his momentum attempting to play the ball that took him over the goal line. I agree that that is considered to be still on the field of play at the place where he left. This scenario goes back to when Ruud van Nistelroy had a goal stand in a Euro 2008 match Italy v Netherlands - it caused a right furore at the time, with UEFA having to confirm the officials decision as correct. https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/history/news/0254-0d7c02c65590-8f80f476193e-1000--uefa-supports-dutch-goal-decision/ Post Edited (Mon 01 Dec 09:25) Reply |
