Derby County 3 - 2 Sheffield Wednesday

This is akin to bringing an aging legend back onto the pitch to try and curry favour with the fans.

Middle born is working - not the paper round, that has gone to Last Born. Middle Born is working 'til 2.00pm at a place which would be of GREAT interest to 666 (who has become some kind of strange Svengali figure) and it is not CCH at Millbank......

Derby come into this game on the back of the curious Rotherham fiasco(?) from Tuesday night. Errors abounded and we were lucky to escape with a point gained. However it was not good for the heart or blood pressure. We have looked relatively comfortable at the iPro and before Reading, had won our previous three games.

Sheffield Wednesday have not won any of their last six games, losing three. Their last win was 2-0 at Nottingham Forest on 10 January. They have also lost their last two away games - which probably means they are due an away win

I will have a mad dash to the iPro after picking up Middle Born - along the A52 where thousands of selfish Sheffield fans will be after ignoring CLEAR instructions to use the A38

Team news - please Mojcaca

Baz. Uefa issued an edict saying that in their interpretation the attacker was only deemed to be gaining an advantage once they had touched the ball. All refs in our local FA stick to it. I've only got a paper copy and cant be ar5ed to find it on web. I think the rules a total farce to be honest but I've had the same conversation that you clearly did.

Fifa, world football's governing body, gives the following definition:
"Interfering with play means playing or touching the ball passed or touched by a team-mate."
However, a player does not necessarily have to touch the ball to influence play'.

Enough said. Case closed

Baz. If only! FIFA set the rules and then let UEFA interpret them. UEFA say ""gaining an advantage by being in that position" means playing a ball".
That interpretation is still valid in all English FA games, including county FA affiliated youth leagues. Its complete codswallop really. The rule is from 2013 and is now being reinterpreted for the 3rd time.
Personally i think your version is the best one but it isn't what the refs are told.
There's rules and then there's UEFA and FIFA. We all know normal practice doesnt apply to either of them.
Case still pending I'm afraid 😂

Then you can expect some more abuse for the rest of this season I'm afraid.
It'll be different again next season. Same rule but revised interpretation.

Hopefully Figo will become FIFA president and we can go back to the old offside rules. If your offside your offside.

scrap the offside rule altogether.no it wold not become along ball game.a lone attaker would need a defender.it would not work that way,it would be the same game as 4.5.1 or 4.1.4.1.good goals would be allowed and it would open the game up
