Another football riddle

the net is the one I catch the goooners in time and time again

The only answer here must be - The FRONT of the net is BEHIND the net at the back !!!!!!

The sides of the net are in front of the back of the net

Depends which way you're looking at the net

The front is the bit connected to the posts and crossbar, then you have the inner side of the net, which is behind the front of the net, and finally the back of the net, which is at the back, which is in front of the back of the back of the net.
