    Favour the attack, that's what the pros are supposed to do, but they never do.

    Only give off-side when you know it's off-side, makes for a better game. However you get more stick, particliarly if they score. Coz it's obviously your fault.

    If you give a bad off-side all you do is take a chance away, if you let it run and they score, then you gave away a goal (in the defence's head).

    541T happens, just enjoy yourself.

    The linesmen (who are just substitutes or spectators) aren't required to rule offsides in our league. I would be surprised if Peat had to officiate in that manner for a game in which his son was playing. Actually, I'd think the ref a bit of an idiot if this was the case.

    Parental bias, and all that.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    I'm not sure Manker cause we hav'nt played a game yet , why I was asking .

    But we don't always get a referee either so both coaches take turns at the half . Not a great situation but you do you what you have to so the kids can play . I'v always gave the close throw ins to the othe team just so it seems fair . But that sucks too oh well what can do .

    Not having a go at you, matey

    I was just saying how it works in the league I play in. It has been known for us not to have a referee too, happened twice last year. It really sucks if you're playing away from home without a ref.

    Offside decisions are a piece of piss.. All you have to do is keep track of at least six moving objects.. a doddle!

    There's an Irish guy - former Gaelic football player - that has recently joined an English soccer club. The club is in the Championship or League 1/2. Apparently this guy has been cracking in the goals recently.

    I heard him mentioned by Mark Clemet on BBC 5 Live about three weeks ago but I can't remember the guy's name, or who he plays for.

    Does anyone know?

    Cheers

    There's a young Irish lad playing for Reading who only joined them in the summer - Kevin Doyle. He's been scoring a few.

    He might be who you're thinking of but I've no idea whether he used to play Gaelic football.
