    When fans get FA rules wrong

    Listen to these poor blades fans screaming and crying about Peltier taking a throw.

    Hopefully, someone told them PART of both feet either have to be touching the white line OR behind it.

    I suppose it doesn't help when rules are changed most years, a bit like the highway code.

    Any other good examples when fans get it wrong.

    A few years ago the opposition keeper took a goalkick that went to his striker stood alone in our half. Nearly all of the stadium appealed for off-site. I had to explain to an old bloke who'd watched for 60 years the correct rule.

    Had a good view of the throw in incident that set them off.

    Looked like number 4 in your chart, with one foot over, so not allowed

    Every other throw after that ( that I could see) were ok

    Think you’re reading that wrong, his foot was behind not in front

    No, exactly like number 4, one foot fully over

    If you also look at goalkeepers kicking the ball out of their hands I would say a lot are out of the area,is that allowed.

    There was also the Eaves off-side from goal kick this season too?

    I’ve only ever seen one player (who isn’t here anymore) step on pitch, these players haven’t so one of us might need specsavers
