In response to those who have expressed concern about the quality of soccer posts on the girls' side of the boards, I will attempt to bring this forum up to the quality of soccer analysis found on the boys' side.
We r awsome cuz I have ring and u r suck.
And my mama cn beat up ur mama.
Blythwood.
Feel better?
We now return you to our regularly scheduled program: Trapdoor spiders: Threat or security measure?
I've got good news and bad news...

coach, In response to yo latter comment, you may want to know that our crack Homeland Security Agency has raised the threat level color to spider black. Also.......I posted the following in another thread to supasta who did has da ring and was go fo' shizzle on Blythwould. Dis post may hep improve the post quality up to dat of da boys side of tings: Firstly, 4-1 over hapless Clover? Any other team would have made it 14-1. Secondly, RNE a well-known 4-A powerhouse? Did you really type that, cause it ain't well-known (except in Dentsville), and the Gamecocks will win an NCAA football title before RNE will ever be considered a powerhouse. Thirdly, 3A championship title? You meant in HS football, right? (Unless they get banned again). Lastly, you refer your arguments that you can't handle to a woman? Do you mistake this soccer forum for a Ben Lippen classroom? I know a few of us in the forum did gradjeeated from Lugoff-Elgin, but we didn't just gadjeeight last night. With these kind of comments, my dear friend (as the late John McCain once said), you will be in bench status until Lower Richland again wins a conference game.

Ok, so back to a soccer issue...
A player is not considered offsides unless she is in the field of play...
So if a trapdoor spider waits UNDER the field by the goal, then pops up behind the defense after the through pass...would it be considered offsides?
I figure if we're going to be infested, I might as well recruit.

Just curious...
If one of these infamous trapdoor spiders just so happens to find itself in close proximity to, let's say, a goalkeeper--does said goalkeeper reserve the right to step on (or otherwise squish) it? ...I'd like to see what SC refs have to say about that!

Coach Chass, Of course the trapdoor spider would be in an offside position, attempting to gain an advantage. And assuming that the linesman has decent eyesight, he would raise his flag for offside.
BHS, As a ref, I would caution the keeper and show him a Yellow Card for unsporting behavior, since the spiders were already there living in their own holes. However, given what the spider did (way back in page 5) to Posh Spice, it is doubtful that the keeper would survive the attack and would be dragged down the hole. There would then be an injury timeout, and a keeper change made.

I understand there is a rule in the SCHSL manual against this type of abuse by a player... Apparently the offending player is not only banned for the remainder of the game but for a month as well, unless of course he disappears into the spider hole at which point is play on!!!

futbol, You are right, the ref could allow 'play on', even if the 1st Keeper is dragged down the hole. But at the sight of this spider dragging a player down a hole, I do not think anyone would want to 'play on' at that moment. So its gonna be a goal kick for the opposing team.

Next question is, would the coach be allowed to send in a substitute if the original keeper never actually came off the field?
