What’s the difference between an outright cheat and someone who tries to push the boundaries without being caught? This is the moral debate raging after Thierry Henry’s handball gave France their win against Ireland in the world cut playoff game on Wednesday. [The photo is Henry playing for Barcelona.] The story has moved from the back pages to the news and editorial sections, with politicians and pundits weighing in. Perhaps this moral questioning is heightened by the MPs’ expenses scandal and the collapse of trust in the financial sector.

Is Henry a cheat? He has confessed to handling the ball, but claims it was an instinctive reaction in the heat of the moment. So if cheating means consciously breaking the rules and trying to get away with it, then it’s grey. We are into a debate about whether we are responsible for our instinctive reactions, and whether it is the job of the footballer to referee himself.

In some areas of life the fact of not being caught is enough to make something acceptable. The classic example is the card game ‘cheat’, where you have to put down as many cards as possible, telling your competitors which cards are in this hidden pile, and hoping that they won’t call your bluff and catch you out. The very point of the game is to get away with as much as possible.

But say you are playing poker, and you hide an extra ace up your sleeve and use it to your advantange. If this comes to light after the game you’ll be disgraced, have your winnings taken back, and be branded a cheat and a liar. No-one will think you clever or audacious. Poker, despite the deceptions and subterfuge, is an honest game. The same is true in golf, if you ‘accidentally’ kick your ball into a better position without anyone seeing it; or in cricket, if you tamper with the ball illegally.

Football is grey. Diving in the penalty area and deliberately handling the ball are generally considered immoral – like cheating at poker. But trying to edge past the defender against the offside trap and getting away with it is considered legitimate – if it goes unseen. No-one really expects a striker to put his hands up after a goal and say ’sorry ref, I was six inches behind the last defender, but unfortunately the linesman didn’t spot it’.

The problem in politics and business and finance, and in much of contemporary social life, is that more and more people think they are playing ‘cheat’ instead of poker or golf. There is no ‘inner accounting’ – to the idea of sportsmanship, or to the voice of conscience, or simply to one’s own integrity. There is only the ‘outer’ accountability of whether we get caught or not. There has always been dishonesty, but the question now is whether this dishonesty becomes so built into the culture that we become unaware of what we have lost. [See Henry Winter's article in the Telegraph for an example of righteous indignation at Henry's behaviour; and see the comments below the article for the view that he was just playing a tough game and doing all he could to bring his team to victory.]

So close but so far. Republic of Ireland finished empty handed an autumn of so much hope and promise, during which time displayed spirited performances against both the current world champion and world cup finalist France. But for all Ireland’s highs in the games facing the Italians and Domenech’s side, the sense of  failure is even more acute and frustrating for Trapattoni’s men. In football and in life there is a very fine line between succeeding and not. And the devil is in the detail.

[ It happened in just 12 seconds, on the 17th of November '93... It was 1-1 in Paris, in the last minute of the qualifiers for US World Cup, with France needing just that draw. But from Ginola's boot to Kostadinov's shot the history was rewriten: 2-1 for Bulgaria, who ended up playing a World Cup semifinal against Italy in United States. Please notice that the visitors wore white shirts and green shorts, as was Ireland's choice on wednesday. So what stopped than Ireland from making it 2-1 even in the 120th minute? ] 

Against Italy, on Croke Park, Ireland was so close to a famous victory yet Gilardino cancelled in the dying moments Sean St. Ledger’s 87th minute strike. The sense of a lost opportunity beamed in the otherwise smiling Irish eyes. A few days later, in what Ireland imagined to be a final push for the first place and automatic qualification if that St. Ledger goal would have been the last in the top of the table game in Dublin, Montenegro frustrated the Croke Park faithful even further: 0-0. It was Ireland’s third consecutive home draw in World Cup qualifiers and another build up to that sense of near miss. In other words, even if Italy would have failed to beat Cyprus in the peninsula, Ireland wouldn’t have made it to South Africa due to its draw against the ex-Yugoslav minnows…

What not many envisaged at the start of the campaign, was though achieved. Ireland was still in it, with a chance to make it to the FIFA 2010 World Cup. A performance in itself, judging by the poor results in the previous qualifiers, miserably wasted on the desired way to Austria and Switzerland. 

Between Ireland and a winter trip to Africa came across the hand of destiny. France, 1998 Coupe du Monde winner and 2006 World Cup finalist, was drawn in the play-offs as a seeded team versus the Irish. And Croke Park was once again the venue of a spirited but once again short changed Irish display. St. Ledger’s body and the post have deflected Anelka’s shot into Given’s net: 0-1.

The Saturday first leg was another Irish missed opportunity to impose its authority, to take a shaky Goliath of the game by the scruff of the neck. The frustration spilled over in the media, about alleged loose words sneaked by Lassana Diarra towards Keith Andrews at the final whistle. The game was over, the talk was done in the grass with a 1-0 for the favourites and the scrumage at the end of 90 minutes just poised the return leg even further.

In Paris, it was captain’s Robbie Keane honour to put the record straight: the French were superior in Dublin but the tie wasn’t over yet… 1-1 on aggregate. Without Abidal and Escude, his substitute who was unfortunately injured by fellow defender Evra in the opening minutes, the World Cup finalist was more vulnerable by the minute.

Yet Ireland didn’t capitalize on this advantage. Ireland didn’t sent the tie to sleep with a second goal and it’s an unwritten football law that missed chances are coming back to haunt you. O’Shea, Duff and Keane, who have passed even the brave goalkeeper Lloris but apparently wanted to majestically enter with the ball in the net, couldn’t find the target after nicely crafted attacks and the boumerang mercilessly stroke in extra-time.

It was all about an offside. As it happened many times in football, in more or less poised encounters, with a lot or less at stake, the offside rule and its interpretation complicated the affair and sparked controversy. It’s what happened on wednesday evening in Paris, after 11 o’clock. Two French players were offside in a deadball situation but the Swedish assistant referee failed to signal the irregularity and the rest became big time history.

It’s the assistant linesman and his glued flag that failed the Swedish referee in charge of the affairs. Once the offside promptly signaled, the following motion would have became irrelevant. In this light has to be perceived the human error that let Henry’s handballs and Gallas equalizer stand. Without this goal, France and Ireland would have probably gone neck in neck to the purgatory of penalty shoot outs, having to eradicate their demons and worst nightmares.

The French have lost a World Cup final on penalty shootouts, in Berlin, in 2006, while the Irish came off the stage at their last World Cup presence by being beaten from the spot by Spain, in Asia, in 2002. Who would have won? Guess what… There is a 50% chance for France to have won it from the penalty spot.

Fact of the matter is that with or without assistant referee’s error to fail to spot the offside that lead to Henry’s infamous two handball and the undeserved French equaliser, Ireland was always only one goal away from qualifying to South Africa. Let’s remember that a 1-0 for Ireland just cancelled the fine French win in Dublin and only a second goal would have insured the islanders’ passage.

And from Robbie Keane’s leisurely miss in an one on one with the goalkeeper stems all the real frustration of the night that should have been but never unfolded. Created opportunities are to be converted. Narrow misses end in bitter failure. A 2-0 for Ireland in the 76th minute would have been fully deserved for the visitors and appropriate to the balance of forces in Paris yet the captain delayed the outcome and let the qualification at the hand of destiny.

It was one Swedish’s inert hand and one Frenchman’s cheeky opportunism which decided it. The Irish were too dejected to react with a second goal which was earlier in many’s boots. But from one of many unspotted offsides which altered results to a character assasination of a well passed captain and a public outcry on the supposed injustice of the game, there’s a long way. Life is unfair and football remains just a game, at times cruel in the extreme but predicating the very essence of human imperfection.

Do we really want video evidence? Can’t we wait for the pilot scheme tested in UEFA Europa League involving penalty area assistant referees, the brain child of a… Frenchman, to see its worth, benefits and real merits? The push for some rule changes seems near yet until then there are times when graciously and dignifyingly accepting any kind of defeat will draw more plaudits than any seemingly righteous but frustrated outcry. The goal that should have not stand was for all to see and the very implacability of referee’s refusal to ask his assistant was more than enough evidence. 

There’s always another morning… France was announced today as top seed for UEFA 2012 European Championship qualifiers, while Ireland is in the third tier of nine nations, with the draw to be made on the 7th of February 2010 in Warsaw. With a bit of change of fortune, the Irish luck might send back Trapattoni to Paris and the French to Lansdowne Road. That wished replay can wait for a potential proper plotted revenge…

Summer has finally returned to Cape Town (no doubt its all thanks to Alessandra HERE) and to Camps Bay in particular.

I headed over to Caprice yesterday  for lunch (as one does when the sun is out) and took a table outside. I prepared for that familiar view and instead i get slapped with this little f**ckery.

This is just not on folks. There are several of these ugly ass makeshift cubicles placed on the grass all the way down the beach all of which are covered in advertising for Bokomo. Don’t get me wrong..i have nothing against Bokomo, but whoever gave the go ahead to put this kak on Campers is an asswipe.

The damn things don’t even work properly. The doors have blown off and rocks are now holding them closed and there were empty Castle beer bottles inside. (im guessing that was Louis though..)

“Wrong Start” is more like it. Come now Bokomo..do us a favour and stop messing with the view hey.

On a completely seperate note , i have another pic i felt must be shared of this chap power walking in a speedo toward Clifton.

Im at a loss for words buddy.

You are special in so many ways.

One year when I was coaching a U10 Boys team, the team made it to a tournament’s consolation (3rd-place) game. We were facing the same team that had beaten us a day earlier by a score of 7-3 (and it was not that close). They had a super-fast, left-footed winger who must have scored 4 or 5 of their goals. What to do? Another lopsided lose would certainly be a downer. I did what any coach would do in this situation–I called on ‘The Glove’.

Strategically speaking, I did the following:

• This tournament was a 6-a-side tournament–5 field players and a goalie. Being more defensive-minded, my formation had been 2-2-1. For the 2nd game, I changed it to a 2-2 formation.
• Having freed up one position, I took my scrappiest player and told him never to leave the side of their best player. I told him to think of that player as a hand and for him to be ‘The Glove’. Wherever that player went, he had to follow. As soon as that player received the ball, he had to be right next to him making sure he had no room to move and no place to go. I also asked my player to lean on or touch the other player every now and then, engage in idle conversation with him, and occasionally nip at his feet just to remind him that he had company. But ‘The Glove’ was too shy so he never applied these additional suggestions.

The result was as follows:

• The other player was completely shut down. He got frustrated early on, lost his temper, and received a yellow card for foul language.
• The other players started engaging in some unnecessarily rough and unsportsmanlike behavior resulting in more yellow cards being shown.
• The other coach and I got into a heated exchange when I asked him to control his players’ tactics and he would not comply.
• The boys won 6-0! Talk about a simple tactical change making a huge difference.

Countering ‘The Glove’

There are a few things you can do to counter this strategy. The first time this happens to your better player, take him out of the game and explain to him what is happening. Tell him that it is the price for being good and for him to get used to it. Tell him not to get frustrated or lose his cool. Tell him that’s what the other team wants to happen. Then employ one or more of these tactics

• You could have him move around and try to lose ‘The Glove’. But in all likelihood once the first glove gets tired, another glove will be brought on. Instead, accept the tight marking and slow his game down. Then, when he wants the ball, have him quickly separate himself from ‘The Glove’ in the form of a quick burst.
• Have him go stand next to the center back and see how the other team reacts to two players covering the one player. If the center fullback moves, have your player follow him.
• Consider playing your player in the back or midfield. Since you player is considered less of a threat to score, the other coach will likely remove ‘The Glove’ after a while.
• Have your player play in an offside position–not just a few feet but more like 20-30 yards. See how the other team responds to this strategy.

Nu stiu cati barbati vor sa afle intr-adevar raspunul la aceasta intrebare, dar cu siguranta multi se intreaba: a mimat sau chiar sunt al naibii de bun la pat? Putine femei, am putea sa le numim norocoase, reusesc sa aiba orgasm in timpul unui act sexual, majoritatea femeilor ating doar orgasmul clitoristic, prin stimularea si excitarea acestuia.

Vrei sa stii totusi, tipetele alea le scoate din sufletel sau doar pentru a te face sa te simti bine? S-ar putea ca iubita ta nici sa nu stie ce e acela orgasm si in timpul actului sexual sa se simta bine, iar sunetele sa le scoata pentru ca asa se face si da, placerea poate fi orgasmica, dar sa nu fie neaparat orgasm.

Cred ca se discuta mult despre subiect, dar din pacate in ziare, reviste, bloguri, in spatele liceului, la fotbal sau in orice alt loc decat cel potrivit: DORMITORUL. Nu iti intreba prietena daca a avut orgasm sau a mimat: daca nu a avut o sa SI te minta, daca a avut, intrebarea s-ar putea sa o jigneasca.

Daca mimeaza de fiecare data si nu reuseste sa ajunga la orgasm cu tine, iti poti da seama de acest lucru din initiativele ei atunci cand e vorba sa ajungeti in pat. O femeie care se simte bine cu un barbat in pat n-o sa fie niciodata prea obosita, prea ocupata, fara chef sau “in zilele alea”.

Poti sa iti mai “prinzi” iubita in offside la sfarsitul actului sexual. Cum? Sa ii zici: acum hai sa te facem si pe tine sa te simti bine, si daca nu a avut orgasm, o sa primeasca oferta cu “bratele” deschise. Poti de asemenea sa continui sa o atingi in zona mult vehiculata, daca te lasa e pentru ca stie ca stimularea aceasta cu siguranta o sa aiba un happy end.

O femeie care are orgasm respira intr-un fel anume, are contractii musculare si poti sa o simti tremurand. Poate sa aiba orgasme “cuminti”, adica sa aiba stari de placere pe tot parcursul actului, asta insemnand ca orgasmul se “consuma” pe parcurs si nu poate culmina. O femeie poate sa aiba orgasm fara penetrare, doar prin stimulare sexuala, chiar si verbala.

O femeie care nu a mimat si s-a simtit super bine si s-a consumat in timpul partidei n-o sa iti reproseze daca pleci imediat la baie, daca vrei sa fumezi, sa bei sau sa te uiti la televizor. Savureaza momentul.

O femeie care a avut/are orgasm este fericita, poti sa vezi asta imediat pe fata ei.

Consider ca femeia care mimeaza orgasmul isi merita soarta. Nu trebuie nici sa ascundem acest lucru de partener, pentru ca se poate intampla ca o femeie sa nu aiba orgasm tocmai din vina ei: este abatuta, are alte probleme, nu se implica indeajuns, o face pentru ca trebuie, nu se simte bine in corpul ei. Tipetele, “ah-urile”, “mmm-urile” nu rezolva cu nimic viata sexuala. O face sa treaca- de obicei REPEDE (asa cum isi doresc femeile care mimeaza). N-am inteles niciodata de ce o femeie se concentreaza mai mult pe orgasmul sexual al partenerului, stiti expresia: de ar termina mai repede si nu “profita” de acest timp in care poate gasi impreuna cu el modalitati si pozitii in care sa se simta si ea bine.

…Daca prietena ta ar mima, ai vrea sa stii?

Idag var det en läsvärd artikel om tidningen Filter i DN, gillar mycket av det de säger och gör. Offside och Filter är båda mycket bra tidningar och det är jag uppenbarligen inte ensam om att tycka.

Gellert Tamas nya bok “De apatiska” och recensionen av den på DN väcker debatt. Läs recensionen av Maciej Zaremba och läs DN:s Hanne Kjöller. Jag har själv inte läst boken, men jag har väldigt svårt för Hanne Kjöller. Tänker absolut läsa boken.

I have many, many pet peeves. When it comes to refereeing, my biggest is when a referee or assistant referee (AR) simply does not put forth the effort.

I would like to see all referees recite the following oath before receiving or renewing their referee license: I will referee all games the way I would want my games refereed. If you can’t or don’t believe in this, then you should not be a referee.

I understand many referees may never have played soccer or will never play. That’s OK. Then these referees should recite this backup oath: Soccer players, coaches, fans, and my fellow colleagues deserve 100% of my effort each and every time I referee a game.

Nothing upsets me more than when I see young, able-bodied referees and ARs officiate from the center of the field or in only one position on the touchline. There is no way you can properly and consistently call fouls, out-of-play, throw-in direction, or offside without being in the proper position. As a center referee, it is not necessary to always be on top of the play but the effort needs to be there. As for ARs, there is no excuse for not being in line with the second-to-last defender. If you are unwilling or incapable of putting forth this effort, then you should not be a referee.

The following is some advice I have received or believe strongly in:

• Don’t officiate too many games per day. While you may be physically fit, the mind tends to wander after a while. 3 games per day is normally plenty.
• Try to learn something new or improve in some way every time you referee. This will keep you focused and motivated.
• Be in shape

What other advice to do have?

By David Clarke
I wrote an article in Soccer Coach Weekly last year about defenders holding their line once the first attacking ball had been headed away. It’s a bit like holding lines on a battlefield. If the defenders don’t all step up following the ball, or they go at different speeds the defensive line is not as effective.

Here’s the best way to set up a practise session to get defenders to keep the line together and move as one thereby denying space to the attacking team. At 11-a-side it also means you can experiment with offsides.

How to play it
Set this up in half of the pitch – it’s a good exercise for all ages, and for 7-a-side as well as 11-a-side – use only three defenders
for 7-a-side games. Have two wide players to cross in balls and you stand in the middle to give a variety on the angle the ball will come in. All balls are aimed at the central defenders.

Defenders step up behind header
Tell the two wide defenders to push in as soon as the central defender moves forward to attack the ball so that the amount of space for the attacking team is shut down – look for co-ordination
of movement between the back four to cover the space behind the player.

I don’t get it. The offside trap is one of the most difficult defensive strategies to implement successfully, yet I see coach after coach yelling at their young players to play an offside trap, especially on free kicks inside the offensive third. My recommendation is that no teams U14 and under should ever employ this tactic. I would even question if older teams should employ it. It is simply too risky and more often than not will lead to more and better scoring opportunities for the other team. These are some reasons why the offside trap is a bad idea:

• It takes precise defensive coordination to apply an offside trap. All players must be on the same page and must know and when and when not to push up to put the offense in an offside opposition. Invariably, one or more defensive players will not move up which will keep an offensive player onside. Professional players have a hard enough time playing an offensive trap. Just don’t do it!
• You assume the assistant referee (if there is one) will call the offside correctly. Oftentimes at the younger age groups, the assistant referees (ARs) are just a few years older than the players and they are just learning to be referees. Many of the young ARs don’t follow the second-to-last defender so they will not be in a good position to call the offside. In addition, calling the offside correctly is one of the most difficult calls to make in soccer given the new interpretation of the offside law. Just don’t do it!
• The new offside law makes it OK for an offensive player to be in an offside if they are not playing the ball or are not directly involved in the play. This makes the call of the AR that much more difficult and uncertain. Just don’t do it!

Offensive Strategy

If you are fortunate enough to be playing a team which believes in the offside trap, count your blessings and count on more scoring opportunities. The best way to counter an offside trap is to:

• Test the offside trap. The defense needs to be well-coordinated to pull off a successful offside trap. Test them early in the game to see how well they do. If you have several offside calls made against you, so what.
• Kick the ball across the field into open space. The player the defense is least worried about is the opposite winger. As long as that winger is alert and has some speed, they will get plenty of scoring opportunity.
• Confuse the defenders. Have an offensive player stand in an offside position. The defense will become pre-occupied with that player and will often forget the whereabouts of other players. As long as this player does not play the ball or is not involved in the play, she will not be called for an offside infraction. A few offside calls against you will be well worth the confusion this player generates. If the referee and AR are calling this player offside when she is not, abandon this idea.
• If a player is in an offside position and the ball is passed her way, have her stand like a statue or simply turn away from the ball. This indicates to the referee and AR that she has no intention of playing the ball. Good referees and ARs will not whistle this infraction. While the defenders and other coach are appealing for a call, have another offensive player from an onside position, chase after the ball. Use good referees and ARs to your advantage.

My weekend recuperation from a root canal afforded me plenty of time to catch up on movies via both Netflix and TV. It was a nice respite from reality shows. When it comes to film, I’m much more of a snob, so my viewing pleasures were totally guilt-free.

I’d never seen Kubrick’s Lolita in its entirety so that was a nice surprise. I knew it had an element of humor but it was way funnier than I expected. Such a solid cast: Shelley Winters was predictably amazing (I kind of love her) and Sue Lyon was much more than just a random nymphet. Peter Sellers as the ridiculous, scheming Quilty was almost a cartoon, but totally enjoyable; and James Mason’s Humbert was fantastically hammy. It all seemed very modern for 1962, but that’s Kubrick for you.

I wound up crying during some of the dancing portions of Bringing Balanchine Back a documentary about New York City Ballet’s return to Russia in 2003 (last visit: 1972). City Ballet is my favorite ballet company in the world and Balanchine my favorite choreographer hands-down. The company didn’t know how they would be received in St. Petersburg — though I doubt they thought it would be worse than their Cold War visit  — so the Russian audiences’ wildly enthusiastic response was gratifying. That didn’t make me cry as much as the choreography itself. Those dances (“Serenade,” “Symphony in C,” “Agon”) are what made me fall in love with ballet in the first place.

Another movie that made me cry: Offside, Iranian director Jafar Panahi’s feature about a bunch of girls who dress as boys in order to get into a soccer stadium for a World Cup-qualifying match. Funny, sad, maddening and deeply human. The girls especially were fantastic: scrappy, determined and irreverent. All in all, a tremendously satisfying movie. And talk about naturalistic: Panahi  apparently shot the film inside Tehran’s Azadi Stadium on the day of the actual match between Iran and Bahrain to determine which country would qualify for the 2006 World Cup! Had the match gone the other way, the movie would have had an entirely different ending. Unreal.

OK, back to TV, but good TV: What a splendid episode of Mad Men this week: Peggy gets high on marijuana and it puts her “in a really good place”! (Pot was invented for people like Peggy!); Joan sings a kittenish “C’est Magnifique,” accompanying herself on accordion (the instrument never looked sexier), at a dinner party for her husband’s boss! There were also interesting plot threads involving Don and Betty’s kid stealing $5 from her addled-but-still-commanding grandad, and a country club party thrown by Roger and his new (ex-Sterling Cooper secretary) wife, who gets drunk. One of the series’ best episodes, I think.

[Later, still thinking about the episode]…And!  I almost forgot Roger Sterling’s hugely offensive blackface performance at the party! And Pete Campbell and his wife executing a mean Charleston, totally showing off. Lots of strange performances  this week.

Aston Villa 2-0 Fulham

                 Aston Villa comfortably beat Fulham with Gabriel Agbonlahor scoring the winning goal at  Agbonlahor helped Villa bounce back from their early European exit as they disposed of home Barclays Premier League win of the campaign. The England striker’s pressure forced Fulham defender John Pantsil to head into his own net after three minutes. Then Agbonlahor struck the decisive second goal 14 minutes into the second period – his first up the points for Martin O’Neill’s side.

They came, they destroyed, they went and watched some football and then destoryed some more. Football took at step back in time last night and unfortunately everyone within football knew it was going to happen.

West Ham and Millwall two East -End rivals thrown together by the luck of the draw. That draw was made just under two week ago and the talking and no doubt fight arranging began.

Now baring in mind that there has been trouble when these sides have played previously, this was a quote given by Millwall Managing Director Andy Ambler the day after the draw

We have a very experienced security team who are used to staging these sorts of games and we will make sure [with West Ham] the match passes off with as little disruption to fans and the community as possible.

Bravo Mr Ambler, sterling job you did there last night and if you want to see your work in closer detail here you go

You see there is no measure against this type of thing, even if Millwall fans were banned from the ground, like some critics were saying they should, they would have still bumped heads with the West Ham fans. It was a game that the FA should not have let taken place, toss a coin to find a winner, anything but having them play each other.

What makes things worse is that it was the West Ham fans who seem to be coming out of this with the greater deal of shame. The goading of the Millwall fans and players was a disgrace and for a fairly respectable set of Premiership fans to behave in that manor brings great shame to the world of football and strikes another Black mark against thoughts of hosting a another big football tournament in this country.

What should the punishment be? Well I’d let the FA decide on that……..it’s bound to be stern enough isn’t it?

There is always one kid on the team that for whatever reason is able to achieve much greater distance on her throws than the rest of the players. Coaches should use this skill to their advantage.

• Anytime there is a throw-in within the distance of the penalty box, have that player heave the ball toward goal. The objective is to create the same type of chaos that a corner kicks do.
• If the team only has one player with exceptional throw-in ability, hopefully that player can play in the center of the field so she can quickly and easily take throw-in from both touch lines without get exhausted. If this is not the case and you are down by one, make sure that player is on the field and they are aware that they will need need to run across the field to take the throw-ins.
• Incorporate the element of surprise. If you have this secret throw-in weapon, don’t unveil it immediately. Wait for an opportune time when you can possibly catch the other team unprepared.
• A player can’t be offside on a throw-in. If the other team does not know this, you are in luck.
• Add some variety. So many teams simply throw the ball in down the wing. There is no rule that states that this must be the case. Throw the ball into the middle or even backwards. It will make the throw down the wing much more effective when you do use it.

The rules state that a throw-in must be held with both hands and delivered from behind the head. Nowhere does it state that spinning the ball is illegal. The spinning of the ball occurs when one hands is much more dominant than the other. However, if a referee feels like a players is gaining an unfair advantage by spinning the ball, a foul throw-in may be called and the ball awarded to the other team. Teach your players to throw in with little or no spin.

Defensive Strategy

At the youth level, unless the other team has an extraordinary player, throw-ins should not pose a big threat if you do the following:

• Since there is no offside on a throw-in, never let an offensive player get behind a defender.
• Treat a long throw-in inside your own penalty area as you would a corner kick. Stack the penalty area with more players who are not afraid to head the ball.

You get use to it being a Liverpool fan with talks of crisis, and general doom mongering in the press, but Daily Mirror journalist David Maddock has out done himself with this amazing piece.

The article contains NO quotes, not one, and doesn’t even hint at the fact that Liverpool had a £6 million bid rejected for Hull’s Michael Turner just last week. It is yet another amazing piece of ‘lazy journalism’, yes we know Liverpool have money problems (who hasn’t  bar Manchester City) but do we put with stories that lack any worthwhile merit being on the backpage?

The sad fact is that people who base truth on back page stories like this will think that it is gospel and slag the yanks off, slag Benitez off and maybe even themselves when they walk past a mirror because they believe everything they read in newspapers.

*I’m so glad I’ve taken the time to do this blog because without it I wouldn’t be able to highlight crap like this so easily*

UPDATE: and no doubt as I was writing, this happened. Hmmm…. so €3 million equals roughly £2.5 million. Point made me thinks

Over Jan Mulder, de FIFA, Roelant Oltmans en ir. Antoon Soetens

In dit artikel:

· Eerherstel voor de voetbalanalyticus Jan Mulder

· Mulder vreet Van Hanegem en Derksen op: Schaf buitenspel af!

· Een inconsequente FIFA houdt verbeteringen in het voetbal liever tegen

· Ex-hockeybondscoach Oltmans komt met valide argumenten

· Steun de Belgische ingenieur Antoon Soetens!

Lees het hele artikel, met de mening  van Mulder over  buitenspel,  de inconsequente  FIFA,  Roelant Oltmans e n het offside-system van Antoon Soetens, op de sportsite TobSport.nl.

Op 27 april 2008 zat Jan Mulder bij Wilfred Genee aan tafel in het tv-programma Voetbal Insite van RTL (de voorganger van het huidige Voetbal International). Vaste onderdelen van het interieur dat seizoen, Willem van Hanegem en Johan Derksen, waren ook aanwezig. Mulder schiet nog wel eens door wanneer hij op televisie gevraagd wordt om zijn mening te geven over de stand van zaken in het voetbal. Bijvoorbeeld toen hij op clownesque wijze pleitte voor het stenigen van toenmalig bondscoach Dick Advocaat, vanwege zijn defensieve spelopvatting. Ongewild werd hij na zijn uitspraken zelfs even tot hoofdrolspeler gemaakt in het door MP J.P. Balkenende geïnstigeerde normen-en-waarden-debat.

Dit soort uitspattingen heeft ervoor gezorgd, dat Jan niet altijd meer serieus genomen wordt als analist. Een groot deel van zijn populariteit heeft hij te danken aan zijn optredens in de programma’s van Barend en Van Dorp, waar voetbal aan tafel slechts een belangrijke bijzaak was. Het entertainment-karakter van de BVD-programma’s en het gemêleerde gezelschap aan tafel zorgde ervoor dat we meestal een Mulder voorgeschoteld kregen, die grossierde in onrealistische, maar vermakelijke stellingen en meningen over het voetbal. Neem nog een wijntje, Jan. Sportweek plaatste Mulder onlangs op 3 in de top 5 van meest irritante voetbalanalytici, voorgegaan door René van der Gijp (1) en Ronald Waterreus (2) en gevolgd door Hans Kraay jr. (4) en Winston Bogarde (5).

Dat Jan wel degelijk serieus nadenkt over het voetbal en een innovatieve, maar realistische visie heeft, waarin hij naar verbeteringen streeft, blijkt uit andere tv-optredens en zijn geschreven werk. Bijvoorbeeld in zijn boek ‘Villa BVD’. Lees het TobSport-artikel, met een referentie naar dit boek, over het toepassen van wetenschap en techniek in de sport: “Jan Mulder over de strafschop”. De passage is opgenomen als een voorbeeld van het dogmatische denken van een deel van de voetballerij aan te tonen: trainers die het trainen op het nemen van strafschoppen nog steeds onzinnig vinden. Mulder maakt korte metten met hen: natuurlijk is er goed op de strafschop te trainen en bovendien is het nog nuttig ook.

TobSport is van mening dat de ‘oude’ Mulder zich nog altijd ‘de moeder aller deskundigen’ of ‘de Moses onder de Nederlandse voetbalanalytici’ mag blijven noemen. Jan weet zijn mening leuk te verpakken en is als het moet serieus. Hij durft gesloten deuren in te trappen en is als hij in vorm is een goede debater, die zelfs kan luisteren (!). Wanneer u moeite heeft de schrijver Mulder serieus te nemen, zoek dan naar beelden en commentaar over zijn Anderlecht-periode. De jongste generatie is opgegroeid met het beeld van Mulder als tv-clown, maar Jan was in zijn Belgische periode een ware wereldtopper bij een bepalende club in het voetbal.

Jongeren kennen Jan alleen zoals hij treffend werd neergezet als een ‘typetje’, door Erik van Muiswinkel. Voor altijd zuchtend en steunend en zwaar leunend op het houtwerk van de gezellige tafel van Frits en Henk. Met een gezicht vol rimpels en veel tegenzin er een mening uitpersend. Of juist vol vuur bij het verdedigen van de zoveelste overtrokken stelling. Wanneer dezelfde jongeren vervolgens geconfronteerd worden met beelden van Mulder uit het verleden treedt er een ware cultuurshock op. Een interview: Mulder met zorgvuldig gekapt haar doet in Polygoon-Nederlands als een ideale schoonzoon verslag van een wedstrijd: altijd nuchter en eerlijk en indien nodig met voldoende zelfkritiek. Uit beelden van wedstrijden blijkt dat de Groninger een neusje voor de goal had, een man kon passeren, een goede kop had en bovendien een fit en stevig lichaam.

Onlangs zond de Belgische zender Canvas een documentaire uit over Mulder bij Anderlecht, gemaakt door Gert Vermeir, Jan Antonissen en Joeri Weyn (“De Brusselse Jaren”). Mulder zorgde bij de Belgische club voor een verdere professionalisering van het beleid op het veld en daarbuiten. Ook zijn voetbalgogme, prestatiedrang en inzicht worden in België nog altijd hoog aangeslagen. Men denkt er nog vaak met plezier terug aan onze Jan. Hij was niets minder dan een echte superspits, passend in het rijtje Van Basten-Bergkamp-Van Nistelrooij, zeggen zijn legendarische Belgische ploeggenoten en tegenstanders van weleer. Toch kon Mulder ook in het veld zich soms als een verongelijkt kind gedragen. Dan zou hij niet in de basis staan en dan hoefde het allemaal ook even niet meer. Boos beende hij weg van het trainingsveld. Een aai over zijn bol en Jan was weer terug.

Ook wij ‘Ollanders zouden Mulder weer iets vaker serieus moeten nemen. De tijd nemen om door de kwinkslagen van de Winschoter heen te kijken. Even weer die aai over de bol bij Jan: “Ja, jongen. We horen je wel. En we houden van je. Maar houd nu maar weer even je klep, tot je weer iets zinnigs te zeggen hebt.” Achter de charade en alle gekkigheid beschikt Mulder namelijk nog altijd over een vrije voetbalvisie, vol bewondering voor de schoonheid van de sport. En daarbij ontgaat hem geen detail. Net als in zijn tijd als speler, toen de kousen en het tenue van Anderlecht bijvoorbeeld precies naar zijn wensen moesten, zijn. Anders ging Jan op zijn strepen staan en werden er alsnog nieuwe tenues gemaakt. Of denk aan Jan’s zeer getailleerde wensenlijst op basis waarvan zijn vader zijn custom-made kicksen vervaardigde.

With the Adebayor story officially old news now (except on Arsenal.com where it took them this afternoon to confirm it), I’ll just expand on what I wrote the other day about being glad to see him go.

The good old days

His Arsenal career can be summed up thus:

• Joins Arsenal as relative unknown with previous disciplinary problems in January of 05/06 and for the next season and a half integrates himself into the team alongside Thierry Henry. His inconsistency in front of goal is made up by constant harrying and hard work.
• Henry leaves  in the summer of 2007 and Adebayor procedes to become the main man at Arsenal scoring 30 goals in 2007/08, finally finding the finishing skills to go with his pace and power.
• His goalscoring exploits draw attention from the likes of Milan. Plenty of flirting goes on but no transfer is agreed. He does however get a payrise to £80k a week.
• Starts last season pretending there were no talks with other clubs and in a completely non-ironic manner kisses the badge after scoring in a pre-season friendly.
• A smattering of boos, indifferent performances and then this interview mid-season in which he blamed the fans for his new found laziness and poor form.
• Still manages 16 goals including this beauty, but in the two biggest games of the season against Man Utd in the Champions League is completely anonymous and puts in zero effort.

.

In those points lie the crux of the matter. As soon as he started to believe his own hype the end was nigh. The messy transfer attempt last summer could have been forgotten if he continued in the same vein on the pitch in 08/09. But he didn’t and injuries aside, was a shadow of the player who terrorised defences in 07/08. Once that Football Focus interview came out, his Arsenal career was effectively over as soon as a buyer could be found.

.

In many ways, Man City are the perfect match. They have the money to double his wages again (for half the number of goals – work that one out) and he should form an interesting partnership with Robinho and/or Tevez (Santa Cruz being the backup when Ade doesn’t play). He should be motivated enough to start playing well again (probably), even though his attempts to deny the move was about money are somewhat laughable. Ultimately no one else wanted him (there were reports of him being hawked around even after the Man City fee was agreed) due to his lackadaisical performances last year. It looks like Milan and Beyoncé will have to wait, and even if they do come in again the grass isn’t always greener on the other side (as Alex Hleb has come to realise).

A shape of things to come

Arsenal will miss his physical presence up front somewhat, though Bendtner showed he is capable of holding up play and scoring regularly if given playing time (he does have Ade’s propensity for missing lots of chances too though). The biggest loss will be Adebayor’s pace which as Gunnerblog points out, is something none of the other current Arsenal strikers really possess (Vela and Walcott not being ready yet). Fabregas is a big fan of playing the early ball, so someone quick and strong would be the brief in terms of replacement.

.

Oh and that someone should be able to score as regularly against Spurs too…

.

T.

Finally. At least he won’t have to change his seat covers…

I guess personalised number plates aren't exclusive enough these days.

.

Plenty has been said over the past week or so but I think it’s a good deal for everyone involved. Arsenal get rid of someone who had irrevocably burnt his bridges with the club while receiving the best part of £25million. Man City get an established top four player while Adebayor gets untold riches per week.

I come here to make money and be offside.

Personally, I’m glad to be rid of him and perhaps I’ll write a bit more in depth about it in the next day or two. For now though I’ll leave Man City fans with the good and bad of the season just gone…

 Quando a regra de impedimento foi criada pelos ingleses, em 1867, um novo cara teria que entrar no jogo: o juiz de futebol. Ele apareceu no ano seguinte ao da regra do offside.O juiz precisaria identificar se na hora em que a bola era lançada existia três adversários entre a linha de fundo e o atacante.

Considerada pelos estudiosos como “a regra de ouro do futebol”, o impedimento acabou com a conversa entre os jogadores para se decidir se uma jogada havia sido incorreta ou não. O impedimento era uma regra muito difícil para ser decidida desse jeito.

Era necessário alguém de fora do campo para fazer isso. E o árbitro, nos primeiros tempos do futebol, ficava fora do campo e só atuava quando consultado pelos times. Só muito depois deixaram que ele entrasse em campo e lhe deram um apito de presente.

A regra do impedimento e muitas outras histórias estão em “A Dança dos Deuses – Futebol, Sociedade, Cultura”, de Hilário Franco Júnior, livro lançado em 2007 pela Companhia das Letras.
