My local club, Worthing, aren't happy. Were odds on for promotion to National South for first time in their history having spent a lot of money on facilities in recent years. Pulling in four figure crowds too so a real shame for them. Nick interesting that the fa are looking to promote and relegate...

Actually, Tony Blair's Government did more for the health service than any since its creation. Buildings and proper pay for the nurses.

Is that the same proper pay that Corbyn and his labour supporters are blaming a conservative government for not paying our nurses a fair wage???

Easy solution just furlough them

I thought (and maybe wrong) that large numbers were self employed due t image rights and other bits and pieces. Often receiving income through a different vehicle eg Ltd co. Bit like a contractor would do on a building site

Indeed, sooner or later there's going to be some huge losses but football needs to remember it's not alone and is not privileged. This could well change football as we currently know it. You've got to think the next time a TV deal is up for negotiation that the sums offered will be hugely reduced. ...

The other thing I don’t get - why those setting up recently (often with big initial outlays) don’t qualify. In 2 weeks they can do a self assessment for 2019/20 (I am guessing that is when it opens) so HMRC have all the info they need. I suspect that will happen and this bit is a misunderstanding, ...

Worst thing is I left a 70k per year job for mental health reasons. Took the big brave step to go out in to the big wide world without a corporate safety net.

If you haven't been self employed for over 12 months apparently, they won't help. I think you need to have at least 1 self-assessment tax return on record.

Well I want my 2500 from employed status then lol

I left a well paid salaried job last summer to go self employed. No self assessment tax returns. Where does that leave me now?

Season has been terminated.

There will be no promotions or relegations between steps 3 and 6 of the non league set up.
There will also be no relegations from step 2.

No decision has been made with step 1 and 2 as yet.

Prime Minister Johnson is simply doing exactly, what Prime Minister, Corbyn/Starmer/Swinson would've had to do. Which is, listening to the advice of the Chief Medical Officer and his team. That advice would have been the same, regardless of who had the keys to Number 10. The modelling is based on a...

The bit about players is generally no. Every player starts with a clean sheet at the beginning of every game. If they choose to breach the permitted guidelines then the referee manages accordingly. Law is applied consistently however mistakes can be made. As before they are not robots. Law is full o...

Is he the Australian referee ?

And very well thought of in the A league.
Came to uk and was put on championship games as a starting point. Would anticipate next season he will probably refereeing in the Premier League.

Stranger things have happened tho

dpinsussex

Not sure why there needs to be pre game instructions from a ref. They should all do the same thing every game, I.e give the Lino the authority if they have the better view...this is why the refs are so bad because they are either the look at me type or shrinking violets. There should be no need for...

If you can't see the screen then you don't know when incidents are being reviewed and what they are being reviewed for though. Ashington doesn't need to.

OK. I'll have to continue to believe the evidence of my own eyes both live and on TV that you are clearly refereeing this element to a different standard than at the professional level but you're obviously doing what you're doing to your association's satisfaction. The association I referee to thei...

The diagram in the LOTG is silent on the issue being discussed. No such position of the ball is shown. I'd already looked at that. It says it's just some examples. You can't claim anything it's silent on backs up your position. Well, you can, but not credibly. You cite the example of the goal line ...

dp have you finally come round to admitting you are wrong in that the ball has to be touching the line to be a valid corner.

Not at all

Quite the opposite

dpinsussex

The issue seems to be that "in" is not defined in the laws. So, it's become accepted that the corner quadrant will be governed the same way as the by-line etc. "All of the ball, all of the line". You'd think the IFAB would see this new way of taking corners taking root and clarify. Then there's be ...

Did you know that you can't score an own goal from a corner? If you were to shoot at your own goal from a corner kick, and (impressively, but equally bizarrely) get the ball past your keeper, and over the line... the opposing team would be awarded a corner kick, not a goal. Yes I,did and even more ...

dpinsussex

That's not a conclusive argument. I have never taken an exam in the LOTG but I think I know them pretty well, and this particular law was either changed or re-emphasised to represent what paulatky says, a few years back. Which begs the question, when were you last specifically examined on this part...

I suspect that you mean the same thing, but one of you is talking in 3 dimensions and the other in 2 dimensions.

Not sure if I was talking 2 or 3d. What iwas saying is what the laws of the game state.

Does anyone really know what the handball law is? No, okay, I will give my opinion. The Ben Mee one last week is a penalty all day long.

None of the ball has to be touching the line. That’s the rule.

The original answer was the ball has to be inside the quadrant. However inside includes any part of the ball touching any part of the line.

What is wrong with that.

That is the laws of the game
