Don't agree with the decision especially as its 100 years since the Somme & like many on here I lost relatives in this slaughter house. But why are Northern Ireland not getting the same level of criticism? The IFAB a body which all four home nations are part of with FIFA make the laws for the game. So why have they not all argued about this issue & changed the rules before? [Link] And here are the rules explained in detail.
