[quote=SoccerRef][quote=Anonymous]Why do many refs struggle so hard to apply the offsides rule? What kind of training is provided on this rule?[/quote] First of all, it's "offside". Second, the vast majority of the time, the AR, who is in the best position to see offside, gets it right, and the people that are complaining are 50 yards away, with poor angles. Third, when people do struggle to apply the rule, it's because the interpretation of the rule is constantly changing from year to year, and you may have the instinct to raise the flag, or keep it lowered, for a something that would have been a violation last year, but isn't supposed to be this year. Plus, trying to figure out passive vs. active offside in a split second is hard as hell. [/quote]
