heavywoollenbee has it spot on. The Football League Refs had a meeting and decided that what we are doing is unsportsmanlike conduct. Not sure how that have the right to decide that - can refs make up laws? However, personally I do agree that it is unsportsmanlike, or, rather, ungentlemenly.

OK... but, as you say, can a meeting of FL refs make that kind of decision? I guess that they are providing an interpretation or clarification of an existing law, so they could make that judgement. It was interesting in that our "wall" moved from directly in front of the 'keeper to behind their wall, so there must be some interpretation about distance.

interpretations/clarifications are made by the International Football Association Board.

Why are refs only banning it now if we've been doing it past few years? (although i haven't seen)

wanderer paul said -
"It's been done many times over the past few years too. Including a wall in front of the keeper"
"Don't be a tit. We've done it with Gary Alexander and then last couple of years with others blocking the keepers view. You obviously weren't at these games so do one"

You obviously never watched Brentford when Gary Alexander played then.

Yawn. Yawn. Yawn.

I've never EVER seen 3 players stand directly in front of the keeper until this season. How have i missed this?
