Re offside or not

An attacking player (bob) was in an offside position when the ball was played forward by his team mate. The ball did not reach bob so in my opinion he was not active. The pass was partially intercepted by a defender but th...

Question was sent to me; if goalie comes out of the box, thus becoming a field player, and is playing between the 18 and mid field, is it ok to have your offense player up by this new field player who is still the last defender and not be offsides. I...

Scott O'Connor of Lovingston, Virginia USA asks...

Reading FIFA rules myself today, it seems despite their attempts along with the International F.A. to make the offside rule clearer their can still be many different interpretations made by different professionals in regards to the rule.

Scott O'Connor of Lovingston, Virginia USA asks...

Interesting responses, I grew up in England and throughout my whole childhood whenever I watched football on television this situation I came across was often called offside (but that was the 90's). You guys know this better than I do, but in the las...
