I’ve seen a pre season game played with no off side. I think it was part of an Anglo- Scottish pre season competition. I’ve also played in an amateur football pre season tournament with no off side. On both occasions it was farcical and it most certainly didn’t add to the entertainment value.

Your second point doesn’t really make much sense, as it suggests no players ever dive for free kicks currently. I also think you’re s bit misguided if you think a referee having to decide if a foul had stopped a “certain goal” would be without controversy.

I played a game at uni with a lad who was severely hungover even at 2pm but unilaterally decided to drop a gram of speed beforehand, to see if it was performance enhancing
He ran about like a lunatic for 15 minutes then collapsed, hurling his guts out and shaking like a shitting dog, almost on the verge of cardiac arrest
Sometimes the simple solutions aren’t actually the best
PS this was the law society team…

Fair point. I took some pure yellow squidgy amphetamine years ago on route to a group fight at a fair. Felt well up for it on the way, got attacked from behind, ran off and spent the whole night deep in a paranoid psychosis which resulted in me hiding in a cupboard after spending hours watching the cloaked ninjas from another estate shine torches into my window as a battle warning. The morning comedown 2 day wank was next level though tbf so I can't complain.

Quite an interesting story that I wasn't really expecting to read on the media thread.

Haha yes mate, 1990s
One of our players, the centre half, is currently chairman of a club in the championship
Another guy couldn’t play to save his life and wasn’t even good enough to be a sub for the mediocre law society team. Now a very very senior figure in Scottish football

Od lov to purchase with that one or the Rooney spray painted Les Paul.........

Remember the lockdown game v Villa at ours, when Bernardo came back from an offside position, robbed Mings then we scored? The media wanted that goal disallowed, so PGMOL changed the interpretation of the law to rule out goals where someone had come back from an offside position.

When Coutinho does exactly that, and a goal against us is ruled out, the media scream that it's unfair and the law is wrong, totally forgetting they screamed exactly the opposite a couple of years ago.

Perfect summation C

He would be wank anyway, whichever it was.
