Apparently the offside rule this season has been changed. Wasn't even aware of it until I saw it on Luke Shanley's twitter tonight.
It's meant to make an offside infringement clearer, but I'm not so sure.
Are there changes to UEFA rules too or is it just the SFA in their wisdom that has changed the rules?

Changes to offside rule this season

It's my understanding that officials in Scotland give whatever decision they like. There will be referee's this season who enforce this new rule and some who won't. In fact this could make things even less clearer.

Watched the Stevie may goal which is part of video footage to illustrate new change and you can argue that Witherspoon s actions could of affected the goalkeeper ,however the keeper was already diving to try and make the save and was unable to so referee overruled linesman and gave it ,so interesting one Hadn't seen this highlighted anywhere until now

"Well obviously the Sellik player was marginally offside but Ah let the goal stand, as Ah couldnae be bothered wi the hassle of an official complaint fae Sellik and then havin ma windaes panned in...again.
Oh and thur fans woulda put a private detective oan tae me and funoot Ah was in the Orange Ludge, which widnae look good either."

Haven't watched it again yet, but Rangers 1st goal last week from the free kick, 2 Rangers players were the other side of the wall when he took it, were they offside or interfering with play?

Thats true...they were clearly deliberately blocking Oxley's view of the ball

I remember years ago when Dundee United (Kevin Gallagher??) scored a 30 yarder in the cup final against Celtic which was ruled out for a team mate standing in an offside position nowhere near the goals.
One of the worst decisions I've ever seen.
