Fair enough. But Liverpool were stealing yards by the half dozen at every throw and he never once pulled them back. On one occasion they took a throw that should have been at the corner flag from somewhere close to the edge of the box.

I wonder if refs are paying more attention to our throws because we keep scoring from them?
lets just accept that 99% of all throw ins in the PL are foul throws...

1. Procedure
At the moment of delivering the ball, the thrower must:

stand facing the field of play
have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside the touchline
throw the ball with both hands from behind and over the head from the point where it left the field of play
