    Apparently refs have got 92% of major decisions right this season and 99% of offside decisions right. So I find it hard to blame the refs particularly, more-so blame the FA for doing all the wrong things with regards to when the ref made the wrong decision :dontknow:
    Joke statistic. At what point does someone being clearly onside stop being a decision? When they're 1, 3 or 5 yards onside?

    And how do we know they arent talking about actual offsides? As in, if its offside.. they get it right 99% of the time? Nowhere is it mentioned they are talking about disputable onside decisions.

    From today's arseblog, not the least biased of sources but still:

    "Example 2: Bordeaux vs Rennes 12/12/2010 – Jaroslav Plasil is lucky not to have his leg snapped in two by Rennes’ Tongo Doumbia. The referee sees the incident at the time and dishes out a yellow card. Subsequently, the LFP review the incident and a supplementary report from the referee (suggesting he himself looked at the video and made a recommendation), and impose a 4 game ban on Doumbia."

    A video of said challenge can be found here: http://www.alainsars.fr/2010/12/17j-...nes-agression/

    Have FIFA's rules changed since the end of 2010 on this?
