Olympic coins - Offside Rule Explained

[Scotty]

This gave me a chuckle when I saw it earlier .... wonder what else we could put on coins to educate the masses ......

[Ten4]

what about -

how to get a penalty ?

explanation of last man getting sent off?

how to play with ten men ?

how to play 12 different defensive formations?

[The Mantis]

Pornographic coins, whatever next :lol:

[+Gringo]

Wonder if there'll be one for diving!!!!

[CaleyD]

I thought it was a p*** take the first time I saw that.

[Yngwie]

How about an explanation of how Olympic boxing judges decide the winner of each bout - depicted of course on bank notes, piles and piles of them....

[Yngwie]

Pornographic coins, whatever next :lol:

Actually, whenever I see the London 2012 logo, I can't help thinking about Lisa Simpson, erm, performing an act. Although I think that says more about me than the logo.

I think they should be issued to all our referees and referee assistants.

[Sorted]

Best description I've seen in years.....

[Heilandee]

Colin Bailey now has the option of "your granny or the rules"

For what it costing us, I agree however I will not be watching a single event. It's a scandal that so much taxpayers money is being spunked in one small area on facilities which will be underutilised after the event yet again (millenium dome, etc).

Full marks to the designer for correcting the referees on their interpretation of the design

[bauhaus]

ofcourse there is also the old firm offside coins, where it depends on who is attacking.

That's what I meant. What did you think I meant

[Yngwie]

I had no idea what you meant

I always believed I was the only person to scan everday images in the hope of finding graphical innuendo involving pre-pubescent cartoon characters!
