let it go but if a player blocks a GK's path with no intention of going for the ball himself then the GK should be allowed to drop him with no intention of going for the ball.Players challenging in the air when they are actually trying to get the ball is fair enough and is over policed but players just obstructing GK's should be penalised._________________Top LitmanenPost subject: Re: At last!Posted: Tue Dec 18,Air Max 2014 Black Green Orange, 2012 9:03 amStar PlayerJoined: Tue Oct 21, 2008 3:18 pmPosts: 3332Le King wrote:penalty or in-direct freekick?Depends.

On the other side though, how often do you see the keeper hurl the striker over and nothing is given?Top Le KingPost subject: Re: At last!Posted: Tue Dec 18, 2012 5:25 pmAssistant CoachJoined: Tue Nov 11,Air Max 2014 Women Red Black, 2003 6:24 pmPosts: 12313Location: AustraliaLitmanen wrote:Le King wrote:penalty or in-direct freekick?Depends.

Never as far as I am aware.It is time that all Referees started observing the rules they so often claim to know!_________________The older I get the better I was.FOOTBALL IS LIFEThe Rest Is Just DetailsTop Nice One CyrilPost subject: Re: At last!Posted: Wed Dec 19, 2012 2:57 pmAssistant CoachJoined: Mon Jul 20, 2009 11:55 amPosts: 12082Old Master wrote:What I'd like to see is the holding,Air Max Tailwind 6 2015 Womens Shoes Black Orange, blocking and raising of outfield player's arms above waist height all forced out of the game.Holding is/or was illegal according to the "Laws of the Game", as is Blocking it's Obstruction!Raisng the arms above waist height by outfield players when going up for a challenge used to be punishable with a Yellow Car
