The first Offside rule in England was in 1863. The rules changed in 1925. So you are correct, Dixie played with the offside rule.
Fair play. I got that one wrong. I also never realised that the original iteration of offside was MORE strict than the 1925 revision??

Why does it feel like literally every pre-1960 goal clip I ever see is a mile offside?
 

They couldn't do anything else could they?

If they hadn't have accepted it do you think UEFA would have let us into the EC anyway?
I genuinely don't know.. I'm too young to remember anything about it and there is not much about it on line (that i can find) I would have taught that the club should have certainly requested being let in given our fans were complemented as the best travelling fans not long before.

Thatcher wouldn't have countenanced it.

She wanted all potential for more embarrassment for her out of the way and she wanted to make football attendance ID card only.

It was an impossible position for EFC to be in after Liverpool's fans killed so many people.
 


Kopites walking round with scarfs on today.

They've come out from behind the couch now they can see there's no opposition to them.

Congratulations to Liverpool for winning the title City were instructed not to win this season.
