bisk Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Always getting those warnings, the occasional touchline bans etc... Board reacts like you ran over a child or something. The fact remains, if you are right, you should be able to say some 'controversial' stuff. Anyway, here's an example: Alright, you see the underlined part, but I was so certain it wasn't offside. But you always get that same shiet. Let's have a look(the very last split second Picheon, #83, touched it ball). He passes ball to number #92. Who controls, and scores it: Of course, for once, I didn't send my assistant to the press conference. The very First question: 'You saw a dissalowed goal for you team today etc.....Do you agree it was wrongly ruled out?" In real life, I wouldn't spare the refs. But I answered politely: 'I think it's fair to say that I agree with that". (Wooo, slow down, don't go bashing on them too hard now!) Anyway, I'm not gonna whine etc, cause I love playing the game, and this is maybe not such an important part of the game, but I just wanna say: Give us some freedom, PLEASE! The game colors inside the lines a bit too much. Let us cross it sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Quite clearly onside, but the FA will nearly always be on the ref and assistant's side there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Aja Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Looks onside to me. I think the ref made the wrong decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

18-WATP-73 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hes clearly onside for a few reasons 13, hes playing him onside and possible 38 aswell. Where it went wrong, looks simple, number 13 should have came tried to block the pass or any run made by the passes, and number 15 should have done a better job in picking up the goalscorer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joetheref Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 The FA always warn managers every time they criticise a ref whether the decision was right or wrong so this is actually realistic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
x42bn6 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 The FA always warn managers every time they criticise a ref whether the decision was right or wrong so this is actually realistic True, managers aren't meant to comment on officials either way.

joetheref Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 For this coming season managers in England have been banned from mentioning referees before the game and if they mention them after they aren't allowed to criticise them in any way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreaded Walrus Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 But surely either way, the news piece could reflect that? The news piece isn't meant to be a message direct from the FA or anything, it's a neutral reporting on the fact that the FA had cautioned him. If the goal wasn't offside, then whether the manager gets cautioned or not, the newspiece should not say that "replays did seem to indicate that the referee made the correct decision", surely?

Management Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Are you able to refer to the incident with having a 'direct' reference to the ref itself for example: "You saw a disallowed goal for you team today etc.....Do you agree it was wrongly ruled out?" "It was a good goal wasn't it?" Manager A replies "Pity really..." The shaking of his head showed his true feelings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTry Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I did read the OP, but I typed the wrong thing. Meant "onside". I think he thought you were contradicting yourself as you said FA would be on the side of the referee and assistant. He thought you meant the assistant manager, you meant the assistant referee.

Dreaded Walrus Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Nah, it's because originally he typed offside instead of onside. So it ended up saying "He's clearly offside, but then the FA would take the side of the ref" (to paraphrase), which is obviously a contradiction when the story is about a controversial offside being given Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenArsenal Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 You do sometimes get: "So far the FA has remained quiet on the issue, fuelling speculation that the referee made the wrong decision (or someting similar) True. But why won't we ever get an admission that the ref was wrong, and maybe get demoted? However rare that is. It happened (sometimes) on 01/02. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
