After yesterdays offside by an eyebrows depth, I have to say something needs to be done. Last season, how many good goals were ruined by this stupid offside rule.
Here’s an idea. If it is not a clear offside, then the goal stands. We all watch football for these moments. We all want more attacking football and more goals.
If it’s a close call… decision goes with the goal. If VAR is needed to draw lines… it’s a goal.
Simple really and over the course of a season any small decisions that go against a team would even themselves out. Surely this would be better than what we have now. Perfectly good goals struck off because a nose hair was slightly ahead of a defenders pimple.
