The 18 yard line was extended to the touchlines.
The line on the Subbuteo pitch has nothing to do with offside, it was in position to stop my Henning Boel-painted right back from scoring from outrageous distances, especially if you’d swapped the standard not-to-scale dunter ball for the smaller version from Jimmy Asher’s toy shop in Mid Street, Keith, Banffshire.
This would not have applied to Kari Arnason against those disgusting thick-as-**** jute ****s in 2012.
