    you can be inside of 2m if you are stationary.

    no he doesn't, he has to be 2 meters away from the point at which the throw is taken. He can be right on the touchline if he is 10 metres down the pitch

    I'm surprised the ref didn't tell Sanchez to stop ****ing about sooner
    Not sure if this rule has changed recently but all opponents have to stand 2m from the ball at at throw in. Ref can warn the player once and only book him if he fails to retreat. Jones appeared unaware of this rule - useless ****. Him not you

    It's how dagoes, eyeties* and such carry on, f. It's part of their culture.

    I assure you Burney's point is correct. Dagos and Eyeties very much do this type sh*t.

    That said, there is this freaking hot Eyetie director chick whose shoot I will be crashing in a couple short weeks. The point being, one must prejudge if they have tits.

    Shirley, it is the official's responsibility to make sure Sanchez is the correct distance away from the touch line. If they a happy with Sanchez's position when the throw is taking place then, in that instance, the thrower is guilty of ungentlemanly conduct and should be carded. What Sanchez did was embarrassing and its only achievement was getting the other guy off getting a 2nd yellow card

    All these laws that involve people being x yards or y metres away are utterly ludicrous, of course, in a sport that doesn't have the means for measuring such things properly. Everything ends up being guessed at by the ref, which inevitably leads to dispute.

    Mind you, I've always found the laws of football ridiculous, since so many of them are either widely ignored, impossible to enforce consistently or simply questions of interpretation.

    It is in many ways, a very silly game.

    Right. That's the beauty of it, the genius behind it. That's why it's the best game in the world.

    I agree that it gives it an interesting element of randomness to the thing, which can be both charming and infuriating.

    However, test cricket is the best game in the world. That's just a FACT.

    I love test cricket but there's a reason it's dying; it's not as good as football.
