Saturday Football.

Lovely goal, handball by Aguero though?

 

Absolutely. Beautiful tho.

 

Its that bloody 502 error thingy, doing my sweed in

 

Didnt spot a hand mesell like, halftime should be interesting

 

Probably a bit offside as well.

 

Yeah i think so, hard to tell with the angle, reckon halftime will prove it to be

 

Refs had a shocker here. Doesn't help the FA in their claims that there is no big club bias. You never, ever, ever see this kind of performance totally screw over a Man City, only ever happens the other way round. If it was up to me every single prem ref would be culled and have some brought up from lower leagues who've been there and done it and aren't going to cowed down by a "big team".

 

Austin is a freakin nuisance! Really playing well.

 

Agree the standard of officiating must be at an all time low

Proper handfull

 

Cracking game like. Qpr unlucky as fcuk not to be in the lead at half time.

 

Shame the linesman in the qpr half wasnt up the other end me thinks

 

There we have it then, still cnfused

 

He couldn't play advantage cos the ball wasn't in play.

 

Did austin pick the ball up outside the box?

 

Doesn't matter. It is where Hart's second touch was that matters. If he touched it again before the ball leaves the box then the ball isn't in play and the kick has to be re-taken. If the ball leaves the box then it is in play and his second touch results in an indirect free-kick.

 

The ball was not live until it left the penalty area. Therefore, no indirect free kick to QPR.

 

So then it should have stood?

 

No. It should have been a re-taken kick, which it was. The ref got it spot on.

 

This. I was unclear. Correct call.

 

Thats where i'm getting confused, a keeper can take as many touches as he likes (within the 6 second rule) but as soon as it leaves the box its in-play, meaning the fluff went to austin and he netted, or does this only apply to goal kicks?
