Sort of related to this, a recent change now means a goal can't be scored from an uncontested drop ball, ie giving the ball back after it was kicked out for an injured player. If it goes in, it's a goal kick. So we'll not see again the majestic sight of a team walking it in from the centre spot, eg Bielsa letting Villa score.

Well we can, it just has to touch two players.

Happy to be corrected, KBN. Yes you're right. My understanding was that the goal is essentially 'closed' until the uncontested passage of play is complete, ie the keeper has it under control as they (the team) did when kicking it out.

I guess we will see it again at some time or other then.
 
I know I went to that match at Charlton. However I have absolutely no memory of it at all.

Must have been a good day out.

For a bit of fun* i wrote a program that goes through all of our competitive results on 11v11 and shows you all the results for a particular score.

So for a 5-2 home victory here are all the times we've done that in our history. not that many as it turns out!

Code below, but i'm not that good at FSharp so it's a bit clunky looking

Code:

open FSharp.Data

Some epic games there- Remember the New Brighton Cup game - first time I had seen some away supporters in any number. Also the Tottenham game when Derek Hawksworth on the left wing turned Alf Ramsey (playing at Right Back for Spurs) ,inside out.
Well researched KBN

depends on who the thrower is

A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in:
  • if the ball enters the opponents’ goal – a goal kick is awarded
  • if the ball enters the thrower’s goal – a corner kick is awarded

I can just imagine the chaos and confusion this would cause. Pretty sure VAR would have a melt down trying to work out if someone touched the ball....or not.
 
Just for completeness sake, here's the pigs home and away records where they've shipped 7 or more.

67 years ago wow. So you’d have to be in your 70s to have seen us get thwacked by Rotherham. Anyone on here go to that game?

I was at both. Rotherham took the kick-off, towards the Kop, after doing the shoot-ins pre-match in the ‘wrong’ goal. Ted Burgin ( keeper) was just arriving at the edge of the area when a Rotherham player spotted him still running towards the goal, and launched a huge punt towards goal from the centre-circle, and the screams from the Kop alerted Burgin to what was going on, and he managed to stop the ball. It was downhill all the way after that, and a bloke next to us spent the whole match shouting ‘Mercer out’. He did not stay much longer as manager. I think I will settle for 0-8 in the top division rather than 2-7 in the second tier, to a local team. Not a record I wanted to see broken, mind…

Revo Sr was there. Currently incapacitated, he was a horrified spectator on TV today.

I went in his place….

Record league defeat today then. Well done lads!
