The incompetence of the linesman and referee yesterday and in general now allowing throw ins to be taken 15 yards forward from the ball going out.
At one point the ball went out at the corner flag and the throw in was taken at the penalty spot.
Results 1 to 15 of 15

Happens all the time.
I was at an under 20s Scottish Cup tie a few weeks ago. The ball went out on the 18 yard line, guy went to take the throw in about 10 yards up the park, tried to steal anothrr few yards and the ref said 'that's fine there, you've already stolen 5 yards'.
How about enforing the rules and moving him back to the right place and if he doesn't go award the throw to the other team.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Yesterday considine was walking forward, the ref asked him to move back and he ignored him. As considine took the throw in he stole another 10 yards and the ref started laughing.

Easy solution and do what American football umpires do. drop a weighted hanky size cloth at the spot and if the player doesnt take it from there it goes the other way. Or just give the linesman one of the wee cans of disappearing spray that the refs use for free kicks.

Anyone watch Soccer AM?
A couple of months back, Jimmy Bullard answered a question on the “What should Sunday League teams do to improve their play?” slot. His answer was, always take a throw in back the way as it gives you a better chance to control the ball compared to throwing it forward to a teammate who is tightly marked and could lose the ball more easily. What a load of tosh I thought at the time.
But......I’ve watched Hibs’ throw ins since then and anecdotally, seems he may have a point. If teams did this more often, they’d retain the ball. It might also put a stop to the bad practice of trying to pinch that extra 5-10 yards advantage that you think you’re stealing.
Not saying it works every time and sometimes there is merit in throwing forward but a little more thought when taking the throw might not be a bad thing. Possession of the ball is number 1 priority.

I ways feel that our players go to close to the thrower making it very tight for the marker to put a good ball back to the thrower and also easier the marker to after.the ball to the thrower getting a return ...also not throwing a ball into space for players to move onto, waiting til they go and stand there ...not taking them early if its on ... ahhh I will stop there, needless to say it frustrates me!!!😲

At the Celtic game theor throwers usually threw it to about shin level meaning the recipient could control or play the ball straight back. Ours generally get thrown at the nuts making it impossible to control or do anything with. Drives me mental.

Cannot say if its true since 1875,but with exception of when we had Shades( God bless him) it has been the same since ,in my memory,1960 !.
I was wee boy but my dad always said our "shys" were always woeful.
Exception,Gunnersson in recent times
