It's slightly different, because there is something specifically in the rules about yelling stuff which is unsporting (I don't remember the exact language but it's something vague like that). But in this case that argument really could not be made. Though that might not stop Hackett from making it.

There's no way the third one is punished. Even if you could consider it "unsporting" to yell that, the guy taking the kick could just say he kicked it "badly" and the striker reacted to it. Anything other than a goal being awarded would be absurd.

Players are yelling to each other all the time. It's ludicrous to penalize a team for communicating with each other.

1. Yellow for the defender. Red for the winger. Techincally throwing a snowball is battery, no?
2. No clue. Since the contacts are not medically recommended, I guess it can be considered miscellaneous equipment? Definitely write it in match report.
3. Goal.

Decided to comb through the laws of the game to see if I can figure out where the inevitable Hackett magic will come from for items 2 and 3. Did learn something new:

The Laws, page 40 posted:

If a direct free kick is kicked directly into the team's own goal, a corner kick is awarded to the opposing team.

Surprised at that, you'd think if they were being twattish enough to own goal themselves they'd deserve the own goal outright. Anyway. In the guidelines it states that

The Laws, page 67 posted:

A player may use equipment other than the basic equipment provided that its sole purpose is to protect him physically and it poses no danger to him or any other player.

Based on that I'm guessing Hackett will say that the extra contacts should be removed immediately, with a booking if they refuse or try to argue the point.

And then for item 3, I found....

The Laws, page 119 posted:

There are different circumstances when a player must be cautioned for unsporting behaviour, e.g. if a player:... verbally distracts an opponent during play or a restart.

So either he's going to let it go like most of us think he should, or he's gonna be a dick and call it unsporting.

I have to give this to Hackett, for all the seeming craziness he's sure managed to get a lot of people scratching their heads and memorizing rules to try to figure out what the gently caress he's on about.

No. 3 - You have to consider whether the shout was intentional to throw off the defender. If you and your assistants agree that it was deliberate and unsporting behaviour, restart with an indirect free kick to the defence from where the striker committed the foul. Otherwise award the goal.

Or something absurd like that, I bet.

Number 3 seems pretty clear based on the wording. The striker wanted it near post, but the crosser sent it far post (intentionally or not). The striker read where the ball was going but the defender didn't.

To me, verbally distracting your opponent would be yelling something about a striker's girlfriend right as he's about to take a penalty. Communicating where you want the ball played or where you want your teammates can't possibly be a cautionable offence since you have no control over them.

Going by that logic hairbands should be banned too.

He'll probably expect the ref to intervene because taking a penalty with those lens would be "unsporting conduct" - you know, the catchall for everything cheat-y that FIFA is too lazy to cover.

quote:

1) Dry your face, ignore the laughter and call both players to you. First, the defender. He is guilty of unsporting behaviour in rolling the winger off the pitch, but he did not use excessive force – so it is a yellow card for him. Second, the winger. He's guilty of attempting to strike an opponent, which leaves you with no option: send him off, and restart with a direct free-kick for the initial trip.

2) No. In the time available, you cannot judge what effect these lenses will have. Your instinct may be that it represents unsporting behaviour, but really this is an issue to be dealt with by the authorities after the game. Provided they have not delayed the taking of the kicks, allow the shoot-out to continue.

3) Allow the goal. The defender should react to what he is seeing, not to what is being shouted. If the attacking player had shouted "Leave it!" or "My ball!" then I would have disallowed the goal and cautioned the forward for deceiving an opponent, which represents unsporting behaviour. As it is, this is the sort of shout that happens plenty of times in a game: defenders need to be alert.

I don't know if it's ever actually penalised or if players do it, but it is against the rules.

Trin Tragula

I was always taught it was an offence if it was done specifically to decieve. Yelling "it's mine" when it's dropping on your chest and no opponent within twenty yards of you, fine. Calling "lay it off, I'm free", to your mate to get him to pass it to you, also fine. ("But ref, he didn't put a name on it! You have to put a name on it!" :fuckoff: ) Calling "outside you, give it!" to an opponent to get him to pass to you, unsporting behaviour.

Interestingly, in Rugby Union, that home of gentlemanly behaviour (and only a little eye-gouging), they think that if you throw a no-look pass just because someone said "inside you, mate!" and it turns out to have been an opponent, then it's your own stupid fault for giving the ball to anyone who asks for it without checking who it is.

Vegetable
Oct 22, 2010

I guess it works if the intent to deceive is blatant. But what if you change your mind between your call and the arrival of the ball? You could always shout "it's mine" and find that your mate is in a prime position to take a shot. It's effectively a penalisation of quick thinking too.

Trin Tragula
Apr 22, 2005

Well, I wouldn't ping a player who called "mine" when a team-mate played it to him, and then dummied it to go to someone else, either. The way I was taught, you have to be directly taking possession off an opponent with the shout.

It seems pretty clear that in the real world, it's the sort of thing you only ever penalize when you're certain the player did it specifically to deceive the opponent. Any random chain of events that leads to the attacker gaining an advantage by pure stroke of luck shouldn't mean he gets punished for calling "to me" and misjudging the situation.

If the defender is in doubt, he's always allowed to just boot it into row Z so it seems obvious that you'd let it slide unless the attacker is very obviously trying to deceive the defender.

Jamie Cureton got sent off a few seasons back because he turned around and kicked a former teammate who shouted "Jacks" at him (meaning "leave it"). What this proved was that while it might technically be against the rules to deliberately deceive a player, it's really hard to prove that it happened since mostly the referee won't hear it. It also proves that kicking people gets you sent off, dur. And that Jamie Cureton was a bit poo poo for QPR. So there we go.

A surprising (and frankly, disappointing) amount of sense from Hackett this week.

The transfer window's closed, now it's time to get back to what's really important about football:



1) Rip the defender's shirt off too then caution him for violating the Fourth Law of Football
2) Point out that you're in short sleeves and shorts and tell him to grow a pair. Punch him in the face
3) Laugh at old butterfingers here and then kick him in the teeth while he's on the floor

1) Caution the defender, send off the keeper, restart with a penalty
2) Only the goalkeeper is specifically mentioned as being allowed to wear track pants. No way
3) Keeper committed an infraction when he touched the ball. There's no advantage to be played as the striker's action is also an infraction. Restart with an IDFK to the striker's team positioned according to Law 13

1. Advantage on the shirt rip which will become a yellow. Red for the keeper for DOGSO. Penalty kick, but make the guy find a shirt first. Red for the equipment manager, because he probably forgot to bring one.
2. Can't see the shin guards. No dice.
3. Wasn't enough possession for a foul. Goal.

1. PK, caution the defender for USB, send off the goalkeeper for DOGSO.

2. In the US, this is fine. I don't know what the answer will be in England though. Punch him in the face for being a sissy either way.

{EDIT: Took me a bit to find the memo. http://www.ussoccer.com/news/other/2007/06/june-2007-archive-i-of-i.aspx Mentions "As to cold weather gear, we have already responded that players may wear tracksuit bottoms, as long as they are uniform for the entire team." Again, I don't know what the FA's rules are on this, but USSF = fine)

3. Keeper handled a backpass, but was then fouled by the striker, so advantage can't be played. IFK for the attacking team.

1. Penalty, get the shirt situation sorted out after you've blown for the penalty. Send off the keeper for DOGSO and book the player for stripping the defender.

2. Play in what was agreed before the match. Run about a bit more to warm up or something.

3. The keeper took control of the ball, so IDFK where he handled it.

1. Yellow to the guy who ripped the shirt, red to the keeper, penalty... but the striker has to go off and get a new shirt before he can come back on.

2. I think shorts are required, only the keeper can wear pants. Tell him sorry.

3. Disallow the goal, IDFK to the keeper.

1.) DOGSO, yellow for the defender, red for the keeper, penalty, and find a new shirt.
2.) Allow it, either only for the keeper or for the entire team. And allow it for my ARs.
3.) Does the keeper have control? If not, and it's in the net, allow the goal since it's simply 2 players going after the ball. If he has control before it's poked into the net, then IDFK, and yellow for the keeper for deliberate handling.

1: Yellow and advantage for the shirt rip, then penalty and red for the keeper bringing the striker down. Make the striker get a new shirt.

2: Tell him to harden up.

3: Keeper had control of the ball, but handling a backpass is an indirect free kick from where the keeper handled it. If the striker has kicked the ball out of the goalkeeper's hands well after he's established control of it, then it's a yellow card and defensive free kick. If the striker made contact with the goalie and it was late, then straight red.

If he's challenging for the ball then it'd be serious foul play, and not violent conduct.

Ah, grasshopper; but is ripping someone's shirt off a potentially valid way of challenging for the ball? If someone is getting harried from behind and elbows them in retaliation, I'd send it in as violent conduct, not serious foul play...

Sep 28, 2004

quote:

1) A terrific question – it just illustrates how you need to be prepared for anything, and for decisions which involve several elements. First, dismiss the goalkeeper for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity. Second, dismiss the defender for using excessive force in violently ripping the shirt. Once the defending team have a new goalkeeper in place – either an outfield player or a sub – restart with a penalty kick.

2) No. The laws allow for a goalkeeper to wear tracksuit bottoms but not outfield players, who should be wearing shorts. If they really insist, I would let them play in tights, providing they are the same main colour as the shorts.

3) There are two offences here, and they happened almost simultaneously: the keeper handling a backpass, and the striker dispossessing him. If you follow the letter of the Law, you should respond to simultaneous offences with a dropped ball, but in practice it is far better to be decisive and rule which offence came first. I would say that the handling of the backpass was the first infringement, as it was the backpass itself that led to the incident. So disallow the goal and restart with an indirect free-kick to the attacking side. You should, though, also caution the forward for endangering an opponent.
