Commentator mentions a lot of centre back options but not Dunk until there is a gap and he is reminded by someone. Mawson , after this season.......
I am quoting the change of the law to help define the shielding of the ball out of play. This changed a few years ago as shielding the ball can be considered as obstructing the opponent from getting it but is obviously allowed. The act of impeding hasn’t changed but the ambiguity of using the term obstruction has. The laws of the game are set and up held by Ifab. All federations, associations, leagues and so are duty bound to use these set of laws. If they don’t they will be banned from being affiliated.
No they are not.
The first ‘universal’ football Laws were drawn up in 1863 and in 1886
The International Football Association Board (The IFAB) was founded by the four British football associations (The FA, Scottish FA, FA of Wales and Irish FA) as the worldwide body with sole responsibility for developing and preserving the Laws of the Game. FIFA joined The IFAB in 1913.
For a Law to be changed, The IFAB must be convinced that the change will benefit the game. This means that the potential change will usually be tested, as with the video assistant referee (VAR) and additional substitute in extra time experiments. For every proposed change, as seen in the significant modernising revision of the Laws of the Game for 2016/17 and 2017/18, the focus must be on: fairness, integrity, respect, safety, the enjoyment of the participants and how technology can benefit the game. The Laws must also encourage participation from everyone, regardless of background or ability.
Although accidents occur, the Laws should make the game as safe as possible. This requires players to show respect for their opponents and referees should create a safe environment by dealing strongly with those whose play is too aggressive and dangerous. The Laws embody the unacceptability of unsafe play in their disciplinary phrases, e.g. ‘reckless challenge’ (caution = yellow card/ YC) and ‘endangering the safety of an opponent’ or ‘using excessive force’ (sending-off = red card/RC).
What has Pugers done with his side boards? The right one is an inch longer than the left. The sloppy tart. 
This wasnt shielding the ball out of play though was it. Address the question of how does two offences under sheilding/impeding/obstructing equal a greater offence.
No it wasn’t you’re right. I was not saying it was. In fact I didn’t comment on the decision made by the ref. Merely I corrected the fact there’s no longer obstruction in the laws of football and reasoning behind the term being removed.
Then you and others started saying there’s different laws across different associations, there’s not. There’s one set of laws played in all competitions across all countries affiliated to FIFA. The only variations are that rules within the laws, such as being able use VAR, extra subs in extra time etc. The fundamentals though are the same whether on a park pitch on a Sunday or the World Cup Final.

My view, be it correct or not, was that both players tried to stop Sterling by getting in his way as per Piltdown Mans explanation of the old obstruction lawn BUT when they both do it together this means that he was sandwiched between the two so a foul was committed.
Obstruction no longer exists. Not sure why you are all arguing over this. Its a Pen.
Ha ha. Side to side
Don't bring the lawn in to it.

It really is a great pleasure to watch England playing with Southgate as manager, we are far more adventurous and a real attacking style
