McLean will leave anyway and one of the younger lads take his place as backup

Nobody is totally sure what is onside and what is offside under the current rule. All this active/inactive; onside at one moment, offside the next. It's become totally subjective. I'd be in favour of a return to the rule that any team member in an offside position means the whistle goes.

Any part of your body that can score in front of a defender, offside.
Attempt to play the ball, offside.
Nothing subjective about it.
Last night's is only being spoken about as it happened so quickly, our boy running out, their boy sprinting in, so within milliseconds there was about 10-15 yards between them. I thought it was onside at the time, and a very difficult call for the linesman to make.
If you return to your rule then the game would be a waste of time. Someones tying their lace in the box, offside. Good tackle which the striker takes a few extra seconds to get up from, offside. Game would never be started.

i paused the highlights a few times and it looks like he is just onside at the goal, timed it very well but the defence should have seen it coming as they were high up the pitch

Thanks, I really meant to say the principle of the law hadn't changed but you understood my garbled message anyway! The 1st major changes for a long time occurred in early 90's IIRC when level became onside & many further tweaks followed on soon after, especially the clarification about actively seeking to interfere with play. The stuff about which parts of the body constitutes being offside happened much more recently & seems unnecessarily complex & a bit ridiculous but it's all intended to help which is good!

On Sunday on Sportscene (or whatever it was) they had the referees supervisor on (Cummings I think?) explaining why it was offside.
NAW, Weir was BEHIND the ball, so it was ONSIDE, doesn't matter if the ball was played back, forward or sideways. I'm sure it cost us a win that day as it was late on in the game.
