    [Football] This rule about the linesman not putting his flag up for offside until the passage of play has finished

    This would be good, but they should allow the fans to challenge the calls rather than the coach.

    I get the premise behind it, but it doesn’t work, and just ruins the flow of the game, and winds the fans up who get on the linesman's back for not flagging. It happened numerous times yesterday, when the Linesman was just following the rules but a large proportion of the fans don't understand...
