Why do they keep saying it should have been an indirect free kick? It's only an indirect free kick if the goalkeeper picks up the ball. 

An indirect free kick is awarded if a goalkeeper, inside their penalty area, commits any of the following offences:

  • controls the ball with the hands for more than six seconds before releasing it
  • touches the ball with the hands after:
    •  releasing it and before it has touched another player
    • it has been deliberately kicked to the goalkeeper by a team-mate
    • receiving it directly from a throw-in taken by a team-mate

A goalkeeper is considered to be in control of the ball when:

  • the ball is between the hands or between the hand and any surface (e.g. ground, own body) or by touching it with any part of the hands or arms except if the ball rebounds accidentally from the goalkeeper or the goalkeeper has made a save
  • holding the ball in the outstretched open hand
  • bouncing it on the ground or throwing it in the air

A goalkeeper cannot be challenged by an opponent when in control of the ball with the hands.

 

So yeah, I'd say you're correct and they're just trying to spark controversy.

Eh? How can you quote the rules and then ignore them? haha

 

Hope we start trying to play football soon, looking pretty poor under the pressure Fleetwood are putting on us.

Handling the ball is a back pass, not just picking it up so they are correct

They aren't as he didn't deliberately try and kick the ball into the back of his own net! It's never given in those circumstances.

He didn't, he tried to pass it back to the keeper and didn't realise that he was running out for the ball.

Using this then it should clearly have been an in-direct free kick so we got away with one!  Probably a case of it not happening to the ref very often so he was not sure about above rules.

The intention was to kick the ball to the goalkeeper, but the reality was that he kicked it away from the goalkeeper and towards the goal.

That's a fair point, probably down to interpretation. For me if you attempt a pass, it's an attempt to pass to your team mate, no matter how terrible it is
