Ex players and that

How? It was too high for his chest and he couldn't use his hands.

 

He should have been in his area earlier though...

Surely, once he found himself back in his area, with a ball that needed to be saved, he should have done so, irrespective of whether it was a back pass or not?

 

I wouldn't have been best pleased about being put in that position though.

He'd have been sent off then if the ref knows the rules. Basically like handling a ball on the line to stop a goal.

IIRC if the goalkeeper deliberately handles a back pass (inside his area) to stop a certain goal an indirect free kick should be awarded but the goalkeeper should not be booked or sent off.

If a back pass is that bad that its going over the keepers head, then it should be considered stopping a goal, nevermind a goal scoring opportunity. Some strange rules still that the FA should have sorted out ages ago. Presumed this was a rule since its common sense, but forgot the FA severely lack it.

Harsh to blame the FA. It's a FIFA thing.

 

Law 12 I believe.

Don't think so. He couldn't have meant it as anything but a back pass, so that's how it must be dealt with

Because he seemed a decent bloke, always went around the ground clapping the fans win, lose or draw, chipped in with a couple of goals when we were desperate at Christmas time, got his head stitched too

 

And I liked him so there..

 

Pretty sure Mark Hotte got his head stitched once aswell!

 

His celebration patting the badge as if he loves Col U is pretty embarrassing. Youve been there a month George, calm down
