Title: football rules question Post by: gatso on October 11, 2009, 01:08:59 PM a question that came up in the pub last night and no-one knew the answer, mainly because the situation would never arise, it's utterly ridic
-must a football team have a designated goalkeeper or are you allowed to have 11 outfield players none of whom can handle the ball? (or 10 players as the question came up when we heard green was sent off and someone suggested we just carry on without a keeper) Title: Re: football rules question Post by: The Camel on October 11, 2009, 01:10:47 PM a question that came up in the pub last night and no-one knew the answer, mainly because the situation would never arise, it's utterly ridic -must a football team have a designated goalkeeper or are you allowed to have 11 outfield players none of whom can handle the ball? (or 10 players as the question came up when we heard green was sent off and someone suggested we just carry on without a keeper) Why would you want an outfield player who couldn't handle the ball? The goalkeeper can come out of the area and play outfield if he wants, then go back in the area and handle it. Remember Jimmy Glass and Schmichael? Title: Re: football rules question Post by: jizzemm on October 11, 2009, 01:11:24 PM you must have a dedicated player who is the goalkeeper..
He can play out if he wishes anyway Title: Re: football rules question Post by: gatso on October 11, 2009, 02:38:38 PM Why would you want an outfield player who couldn't handle the ball? you obv wouldn't which is why I said it would never arise and is utterly ridic. however that doesn't stop a drunken conversation about whether you could do it the only rule I can find is 'A match is played by two teams, each consisting of not more than eleven players, one of whom is the goalkeeper.' which I guess means you have to have one plus you must have a goalkeeper when facing a penalty Title: Re: football rules question Post by: maldini32 on October 11, 2009, 02:44:01 PM your right its utterly ridic!
Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Matt.NFFC. on October 11, 2009, 04:09:52 PM Ridic it is, but yes, a designated keeper is a must for the laws of the game but he/she can do wtf they like and play in any position (providing it's within the laws of the game)

No contact = boredom Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Ironside on October 11, 2009, 08:53:29 PM we used to pick a footy team name for each player aswell
keeper used to pick the level for each game players then picked in order they finished in the last game so winner could call themselves brazil if we were playing national teams or loossie if playing highland league teams keeper had to try and do comentary Title: Re: football rules question Post by: mondatoo on October 11, 2009, 08:54:26 PM Where you one of those that used to do leg crunching tackles against your mates in a friendly game ?
Crazy people Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Matt.NFFC. on October 11, 2009, 08:55:08 PM Loving this thread.

Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Ironside on October 11, 2009, 08:59:23 PM Where you one of those that used to do leg crunching tackles against your mates in a friendly game ?

Title: Re: football rules question Post by: gatso on October 11, 2009, 09:01:39 PM we played a lot of '3 and in'. surprisingly competitive considering the prize for winning was going in goal and no-one wanted to do that
Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Girgy85 on October 11, 2009, 09:04:49 PM goalie when ness FYP We used to play in school playground using a tennis ball! Title: Re: football rules question Post by: mondatoo on October 11, 2009, 09:05:23 PM we used to play a game where first person in box could handle the ball as goalie the fights we had about that game Yeah we played this 2,who'd a thought such a useless thread can pan out so welll Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Josedinho on October 11, 2009, 09:05:54 PM Secrets was a good game. Keeper picks a category (prem teams, arsenal players etc) and each player picks somebody in that category and tells keeper their choice. If you score you get a guess, guess somebody else's team/player and they are out.
Title: Re: football rules question Post by: Ironside on October 11, 2009, 09:08:19 PM we used to play a game where first person in box could handle the ball as goalie the fights we had about that game Yeah we played this 2,who'd a thought such a useless thread can pan out so welll any thread dewi starts turns out good even on the sports board Title: Re: football rules question Post by: LeKnave on October 11, 2009, 09:21:02 PM What did people use to call the game where you had 1 goalie and everyone else played individually to score 1 goal to go through each round? wembley singles Title: Re: football rules question Post by: mondatoo on October 11, 2009, 09:23:25 PM I say we play wembley doubles at next blonde bash, forget about the 5 a side this plus the pens with laz would be incred
Title: Re: football rules question Post by: matt674 on October 11, 2009, 10:00:29 PM used to be fly goalie in our playground - and if you were really desperate one play time it used to be any man in the area obv I didn't go to your school but are you sure you're remembering that right? the 2 things you mention are actually the same (called monkey rush down my way but fly is acceptable). rush was with a designated keeper nope in our playground it was "fly goalie" to mean one person was designated goalie but could also play as an outfield player (usually used in games where teams were about 5-8 a side) and we played "any man in the area" to mean anyone who was in the area could pick up the ball if game was 5-a side or less. We also played with a tennis ball though if that went on the shed roof or over the shed into the canal anything remotely round would do With us it was knock-out wembley for singles and wembley doubles when in teams of two we also had "headers and volleys" which does exactly as it says on the tin - you could only score with a header or a volley. If you missed 3 attempts without scoring a goal whoever missed the third attempt would have to go in goal. If you were in goal with the 5th goal went in you got soft beats (one soft punch of every outfield player), if you were in goal when the 10th goal went in it was medium beats, 15th goal meant hard beats and if you were the goalie when the 20th goal went in then it was the tunnel of death where all the outfield players lined up with their hands against the wall of the canteen and the goalie had to run thru the "tunnel" while everyone kicked lumps out of him. It got interesting when upto 18 goals because then everyone wandered further and further away from the goal trying to set up others rather than risk the shot in case they missed how we got away with the tunnel of death with the dinner ladies i'll never know :D Title: Re: football rules question Post by: BigSlickHumphrey on October 12, 2009, 01:31:52 PM We call it cuppies. Had a game with my nephews yesterday, they still can't beat me but I have to actually run about now to win!

Rush keeper meant you could play out. Stick keeper was usually if it was an odd number of players, e.g 5 vs 6, the team with 6 players would have stick keeper who wasn't allowed out. We had monkey rush, but I don't remember if it was different to rush could be that anyone is keeper without nominating. Title: Re: football rules question Post by: sovietsong on October 12, 2009, 05:54:23 PM Cuppy and cuppy dubs. Some wierd lads at school called it champs? Wtf!
And it was goalie when needed or goalie wed ned! Non of this when ness! Heads and volleys were good but no where near as good as cuppy. We'd say 'are we lekking cuppy dubs' my old man said it was laking but we always said lecking! |
