You’re in a shoe shop, second in the queue for the till. Behind the shop assistant on the till is a pair of shoes which you have seen and which you must have.

The female shopper in front of you has seen them also and is eyeing them with desire.

Both of you have forgotten your purses.

It would be totally rude to push in front of the first woman if you had no money to pay for the shoes.

The shop assistant remains at the till waiting.

Your friend is trying on another pair of shoes at the back of the shop and sees your dilemma.

She prepares to throw her purse to you.

If she does so, you can catch the purse, then walk round the other shopper and buy the shoes.

At a pinch she could throw the purse ahead of the other shopper and, *whilst it is in flight* you could nip around the other shopper, catch the purse and buy the shoes.

Always remembering that until the purse has *actually been thrown* it would be plain wrong to be forward of the other shopper.

There you have it!

But is that only if the first girl is not disturbing with play? ie; in a non active role. Or does she have to pro-active.
Don’t know about explaning it to girls doc. It’s a bloody mystery to me now and to all the referee’s.:groucho: raaa :bounce_fl

:laugh_at: :laugh_at: :laugh_at: v v good. My mum understands the offside rule, is that a record? she likes Beckham tho, so its not all good.

The active/ inactive thing depends on which side of the bed the ref got out of that morning, subby. Hope that clears it up for you.:wink:

There is no ‘fair’, ‘rude’ and ‘wrong’ when shopping for shoes, there’s only the owner of them at the end. It may work in sports but not in the real world of shopping.

There.

That made loads of sense, how crazy. :weee:

I’ve never asked anyone to explain the rule, the frustration i see on other blokes faces explaining to girlfriends is enough to keep my mouth shut.

The offside rule is the most ambiguous rule in any sport. No matter how it’s explained each referee interprets it a different way each time. So after 34 years of watching footie I am no nearer an explanation:hopeless:
