THE RULES!! AN EXCITING NEW THREAD!!

[heysham_mfc]

Down to me then, as Ezz has not asked a question.

If a ref dies during a match how many feet underground is he buried

none he is taken to the local crem

[PUNKISDEAD]

The answer was

10 feet, coz deep down they are nice people!!!!

anyway, 1150 hits can t be wrong, this thread is a smash hit

I have decided to liven it up even more

Matty, I am bestowing you the honor of posing a question on the grounds that you have a doppleganger who has just signed for burnley

[Aspers]

If you kiss another player on the field and the player complains to the ref, the ref didn't see it but the assistant did. After checking with the assistant what action does the ref take.

[PUNKISDEAD]

Dunno the answer mate, but that is one bonzer question

This will catapult THE RULES right back to the top

[ezz]

What happens if a player clears the ball, it bounces off the referee's arse and re-bounds into the original players goal as he was not that far out and the ref was perfectly poorly placed for that to happen?

[outsider]

its a goal, and a ref

[PUNKISDEAD]

Yo Ezz

Welcome back to THE RULES, this one is easy , the goal would stand, much to the embarassment of the hopeless match official, well done outsider

your question

[outsider]

What weight is a football?

[marky No.1]

What weight is a football?

It seems like we have had to wait ages for the football, but it starts tonight

No doubt there are lots of answers to this depending on size and whether wet or dry but 430 grams or about a pound is about right

[heysham_mfc]

depends on make size etc

[Aspers]

The referee books the player who gave the kiss for ungentlemanly conduct.
the game is restarted with a drop ball if in play when game stopped or from where ball went out of play, No free kick awarded.

[PUNKISDEAD]

FIFA regs 420-445 grams for the ball

Aspers answer looks right to me, so think we can ask a question each, happy days

[Aspers]

When I was at ballet school I was playing for some London team.
We were playing Dulwich Hamlets in a mid week cup match. Their centre forward kept sledging me and calling me a puff, he came up close to me and said your a puff you &%$%, so i leaned forward and kissed him.
He went ballistic, and got himself sent off, the ref went over to the Linesman checked with him, came back and booked me ungentlemanly conduct..
Cost me my match fee $5. worth it.

[outsider]

What weight is a football?

The correct answer is

"not more than 450 g (16 oz) and not less than 410 g
(14 oz) in weight at the start of the match"

sorry for the delay been doing a 6-6 shift today then footy

so marky No.1 was correct

[PUNKISDEAD]

Well done marky


FIRE AWAY

Worth the 5? You know you enjoyed it

Aspers must have calmed down a bit after leaving for the bright lights then.

In his earlier days at Middleton he was known to demonstrate that ballet dancers aren't 'girly' types at all by taking a slightly different approach when people wound him up.

(In other situations, when mocked, he would remind his tormentors that he was currently at a ballet school with two other blokes and 73 girls...... and the other two blokes were gay!)

Well done marky

Can't believe i've got roped into this

Ok a 3 tiered question. In the Carling Cup:
1. How many subs are allowed on the bench?
2. How many of these are allowed to play?
3. How many of them are allowed to warm up, down the touchline during the game?

[morecambes_robbo]

Well done marky

i think its 7 subs, 3 are allowed to play and only 3 can warm up at a time.

Correct on all 3 counts. I thought typing in "Carling Cup" might have confused some? This system was introduced last season in the Premier League and is now part of the Football League.

Over to you Robbo

[morecambes_robbo]

A player cannot be offside from three types of set piece. what are they???

[bigreddog]

This sounded like a trick question for a while.

I reckon its: Throw in, Corner kick, penalty kick

[outsider]

corner, throw in, and a penalty?

[morecambes_robbo]

both got 2 out of 3

[outsider]

corner, throw in and the opponents goal kick?
