Burtons throw inside 13:09 - Aug 18 with 2058 viewsWickets

Anyone else notice how much ground they managed to pinch at throw ins ? I was hopeful that our bench would be in the 4th officials ear but we just seemed to accept it .They consistently pinch 4 , 5 , or even 6 yards to give them a more attacking position.

Every side does it. I'm sure if your watch us at throw ins we do the same and inch our way down the touchline pretending to look for an option while the officials are distracted.

Yes that's true of course but my worry at the time was was we looked very vunrable to their long throw tactic so we should have been in the 4th officials ear to try and minimise how much ground they could pinch ! Simples.

Brayford was hilarious though, one he must have taken 15 yards or more. Went out deep in their half and he could have got a pat on the back from McKenna by the time he released.

Their foul throw was karma.

Happens all the time and does annoy me generally speaking. At best the ref will wave them back in the broad direction of where it should be from, but then not intervene when they precede to take 5 steps up the touchline before throwing it. Must say we do it too, everyone does.

Yes that's right , my point is we just seemed to accept it .Why did our bench not point it out .We all love KM and I suppose he is learning on the job hopefully he will watch the video of the match and note how he can improve.

But then you can understand why they were trying to get further down the touchline so they could use that weapon, but I agree, it doesn’t make it right.

You make a good point about the impact of a bench/coach and how small things can make a big difference. The Swansea manager was rightly furious the other night after his team conceded twice in time added on to Milwall. One of the goals came because a player on the Swansea bench punched the ball back to a Milwall player when it went out of play. Milwall quickly took the throw and scored. An extreme and rare example but it illustrates your point. The “dark arts” are crucial.

Yes, on that one, the ref told him to move back when he was still in their half. He turned his back and got into position and by the time Brayford took the throw, he was well inside our half.

It is a little like the marginal gain of overhanging the ball on the quadrant for a corner (which is within the rules), though. It probably makes most difference when it winds players up - the actual yardage gained probably doesn't change that much in terms of outcomes.

Perhaps it is time to rewrite the laws of the game and determine that a throw taken from the wrong place is a foul throw. The only problem would be a need to define what was a wrong place. If you decided it was within x yards of where the ball left the field of play it would be an open invitation to gain x yards at each throw in.

Bit like when, to speed up play, it was decided a goal kick could be taken from any point within the six yard box and not, as previous, just from the side of the goal the ball went out of play.

Years ago I can recall a game where Tarrico had been spoken to for time wasting, and trying to gain ground at a throw in. He wasted even more time then by checking with the referee or linesman that he was taking the throw from the right place.

Simply, ball must leave the hands no further forward than the indicated position it went out.

Can be behind, up to the ref/assistants to mark the spot.

Difference is we (Donacien in particular) always throw the ball back to Woolf and Edmundson to recycle possession, even if our throw in is level with the opponents penalty area. So wouldn’t really benefit us to steal any yards!

Marking the spot would waste even more time.

The solution is straightforward. Have an electronic lighting system installed along the side lines and automatically connected to the goal line technology system. When it goes out of play, half a yard on either side is lit up. If the throw is not taken from that spot, it is then a foul throw.

Additionally, the system could deliver an electric shock to the player for taking it outside the allowed spot but that might be a bit much. It does fit with the idea I heard of giving referees electric cattle prods to get the wall back at free kicks.

I think Burton “ stole” far more than an “ inch” at Every throw in though. It was blatant cheating , an issue I’ve raised in here before regarding teams in this division. It’s up to officials to stamp it out. If WE can all see it, so can they. So why dont they act accordingly? By leaving it unchallenged they are condoning it snd then it become accepted as the norm. Where does it all end, therefore, with any rules of the game?

Yeah I noticed it. I know most teams do it. But not every side has a long throw expert like Hamer.. So those few extra yards made a difference...

Assistant referees should have the free kick marker spray to indicate where throw in should be from

If a throw in is taken from the wrong place, the referee is supposed to call a "foul throw" & the throw-in is awarded to the other team. Players routinely steal 5 yards or more at most defensive throws by running down the line before throwing the ball & this is tolerated as everyone does it & the advantage gained is minimal. Yes, in attacking situations it may be more useful & players seem to cheat less in these situations. However, it's difficult for a referee to choose to apply the laws fully in one situation & not in others.

Easy solution - if an opponent pinches a few yards they have their arms cut off at the elbows thus making them think twice before doing it again
