l the bit that matters, is way behind the alleged offence.

You’d have a different opinion if he’d have scored with a header.

If you read my posts above - you'd see 2 pages worth of proof that i wouldn't. I am actively arguing for the opposite.

I don't think 2mm ahead makes a feking difference unless we all agree where we draw the line at what we consider to be 'a meaningful advantage'.

Like banging your head up a brick wall on here.

More bollocks tonight to reinforce the point that it's fekin stupid.

'Oh its his head, part of his head'.
Moronic.

This one's even worse coz the rest of his body - the bit that matters, is way behind the alleged offence. We are literally dealing with his mush.

Even worse because surely his knee is further forward than his face - plus wasn’t he behind the ball?
You made one mistake
You got burned at the stake
You're finished, you're foolish, you failed

That pic shows he was slightly in front of the ball. The ball is being used to measure offside.

Oh yeah absolutely - there will still be a hard line needed to be drawn, but I think the point is it will be needed to be drawn less often - yes?

ATM they draw lines on almost every single offside - with the daylight thing, there will be the situation where semi automated offsides will know straight away that there is a clear overlap of the two players, hence onside, only the tightest calls will be delayed.
I see this as a big improvement on the current situation.
Of course, back in the 80's when they used the daylight rule then it was a huge help to linos and with there being no VAR it was really good and deffo gave an advantage to attacking sides.

We'll see I suppose.

Exactly!

Well put.

Currently those decisions are not delayed anyway, because they are clearly offside and done in seconds, an entire body (including arms) past the defender is a very easy decision.

It's the ones where they have to draw lines on body parts where there is a delay, and you're still going to have those because of the arms/body situation, perhaps there will be fewer but I'm not convinced once forwards start pushing the boundaries with their movement knowing the rule has changed.

Time will tell, but as I said, fewer is better, so got to be worth a try. I can't see any negatives compared to the current situation, unless you only want to see VAR binned for eg - but let's face it, that isn't happening any time soon (if ever) so looking for ways to improve it is a 👍
