    England vs San Marino

    Anyone watching the England vs San Marino game?

    Anyone care to explain why England were awarded an indirect free kick in the box following a San Marino defender heading the ball back to the keeper before he palmed it down and eventually proceeded to pick it up?

    Keeper can't be in control of it with his hands, drop it and pick it up again.

    Palming it down to yourself is deemed to be in control of it btw.

    I saw paddy power offering 5/1 that San Marino would win a corner.

    Aye you have!

    Same rule that was introduced to stop keepers picking it up, dropping it, picking it up etc.

    Think it was introduced the same time as the pass back rule.

    San Marino apparently has a population of 32,000. Take out 17,000 to account for women, then factor in the male demographic being 16-36 or so, you're probably down to a pool of around 4,000 to choose from (and that's before you assume they're all keen footballers). Got to be around the standard of a lowland league club at best, you'd imagine!

    You'd certainly fancy your chances of being selected at age group level in your teens.

    What an experience for, what will be, very average footballers

    Anyone know why San Marino have changed the colour of their strip?

    I used to like their sky blue strips.

    Remember it was mentioned before there was talk of a qualification section for the minnows to reach the proper qualifiers and I think that's not a bad idea. They'd surely get more enjoyment playing regularly against the likes of Andorra, Gibraltar etc where they'd have some chance of success.

    Am baffled that Casillas is in goal after his horrendous World Cup while a very much in form De Gea is on the bench

    Edit: Just spotted this on the BBC website .......

    A horrible mistake by goalkeeper Iker Casillas sees holders Spain fall behind away to Slovakia in Group C, Genoa's Juraj Kucka giving the hosts a 17th minute lead from a free-kick which the stopper should have saved.

    I know what you're saying, but I would much prefer the opportunity to play at Wembley in front of tens of thousands and get horsed rather than get edged out by Andorra with about 10 folk watching

    He did a great reflex save just minutes before the goal. I think De Gea would have stopped the free kick but it was a Lorimer type hit.

    I think the novelty of getting smashed so regularly would soon wear off.

    I'd rather win games, remember they'd still get to Olay in these games of they won their qualifiers

    San marino, Andorra etc were offered the minnow group and IIRC they rejected it as the big teams were good for the economy via fans and tourist exposure.

    Cheers, wondered why nothing ever came of it but that makes sense.

    Must just be because it's enforced so infrequently then - was totally baffled as to why that happened!

    Keeper isn't allowed to pick the ball up again once he's controlled it with his hands, whether it's a passback, a header or a shot.
