This ball over the line thing 17:50 - Nov 6 with 3264 viewsFrimleyBlue

To erm solve the problem. Why don't they judge it on the base of the ball being behind the line? What's with the over hang rubbish.

I've always been surprised by it at corners.

The ball has to be fully behind the line, when it overhangs it’s not.

It’s not rubbish as it has always been what the rules have stated.

How do you define the base of the ball in that case? Do you want the lino to lie down with their eyeball on the grass and try and determine the base of the ball?

Thats what I mean. Change the rule. Its not gonna have a massive effect.
Base of ball has to be on the line. Job done.

Same as offside. Foot only the foot has to be at least 1ft offside. Job done

Ball has hit hand, denied a goal scoring opportunity. Pen
Accidental but still hit hand indirect Freekick. Job done

No. You just carry on as normal. Base it on what you see. You'll get some wrong. You'll get some right. But it's fairly easy to tell if base of ball is out of play. The base of the ball is simply what is touching the turf. Quite easy imo.

Then var can pick it up if it leads to a goal.

Personally I don't get the overhang thing it's odd.

Change the rule that when the ball isn’t completely out of play that it’s deemed as out of play?

Yes.

In cricket you don't get a catch if your feet are behind the boundary so why can't a ball actually be out if the base of the ball is out? It would make more sense imo.

Also.. if a player is off the pitch after say chasing a loose ball.
If the ball makes it way back to him and be heads it.. is he still on the pitch if his head is on the pitch or off the pitch as his feet are off the pitch? ( obv in this scenario I'm imaging a ball in the air going back at him) not the playing laying down for some reason lol.

Back in the ninetys when I did a fa coaching course a referee told my group that ( at that time) if a ball struck a hand and the offender gained an advantage from it then it was handball deliberate or not.. Seemed very simple to apply in my view.... I couldn't even fathom a guess at what the law says now

The rules are bizarre for a lot now.

The offside from an opponent touch has now changed too I believe.

In cricket, the ball has gone "over the line" as soon as it hits the rope.

There's no equivalent in cricket to the football example being discussed here.

Though you've hit on a good idea completely by accident. Have rope instead of painted lines in footy.

Obviously you’re doing your usual talking b*llocks to get a reaction but I’ll bite.

A footballers foot being at least a foot offside doesn’t solve the offside problem. You’ll still get VAR taking an age trying to workout if they’re 1 foot or 30.47cm past the defender.

However on the wicket, bowlers and batsmen have to have something behind the line ! It all really hinges on whether the line is part of the field of play or not, the boundary rope is outside the field .

How are you going to judge if the base of a moving ball in mid-air is over the the line?

All of the ball has to be over all of the line, it’s not hard. And for the hard of thinking, yes, at corners it can over-hang the line and there can be clear green grass between the base of the ball and the white paint of the line.

if it hits the rope yes its a boundary, but you can of course legitimately catch the ball even if its passed over the boundary rope in the air, as long as your feet stay in the playing area and dont touch the boundary.

hence all those acrobatic dives in the air lobbing the ball back across the rope to another fielder counts as a catch.

Indeed, and there's no equivalent example in footy, innit. E.g. a goalie can claw the ball out of the goal mouth with his feet in play, but if the ball's over the line* it's a goal.

* completely over the line, not half of it or some of it etc.

What you seem to fail to realise is that you are not offering a solution to a problem but rather shifting what basis the problem rests on. By making it the base of the ball, you require the ball to be on the ground and it frequently won't be.

I think what you are really driving at, is stop VAR, allow the officials to make a decision and then accept it will sometimes be wrong. However, at the level where goal line technology is in use, this seems to work well. No problem with that remaining as it is.

As ever it's one rule for a ball on the ground, and quite another for when it's in the air... and er, the rest of us.

No need to change it - the rule is very clear and easily implemented (as shown by goal line technology).

What’s needed is an education programme for fans who think they know best based on an obscure camera angle.

Especially if the obscure camera angle is combined with a ball that isn't on the ground. You have to be in line to tell. The camera angles frequently aren't. Unfortunately sometimes the assistant referee cannot be or has their view obscured.
