I thought Ronaldo was offside too, it depends on how the law is followed. No ref actually goes by the 'daylight' idea - they still seem to use the old rule anyway. This is something that FIFA need to clear up, the daylight rule is bollocks because the refs don't actually follow it.
I would personally like to see the offside rule go back to black & white, at the moment it's too open to personal interpretation which then leads to inconsistency. I'm talking more about the rule of whether a player is interfering or not, too many bad decisions have been made where that is concerned if you ask me. I digress, but changing rules like this would make it easier for the refs and hopefully lead to more correct decisions.
