| Apr 24, 2018 at 2:01 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | I didn't add an answer as I thought both of these sources were somewhat outdated. They were added as comments in case Nij wanted to add them to the answer to provide background on what football governing bodies thought about deciding the goalscorer 10 - 20 years ago. | |
| Apr 20, 2018 at 12:53 | comment | added | gdrt | This way or another, we need more answers on questions. If studro summarized his comments within a separate answer, we would have had 2 useful answers with the same conclusion but with different approaches: yours (based on personal experience) and studro's (based on references). | |
| Apr 20, 2018 at 12:36 | comment | added | Nij♦ | The issue for us is that sports questions often have a single reasonable and correct answer - who did this, what is the rule, when or where did this happen, what is the number - unlike the science or technology or personal sites where multiple perspectives and explanations can be provided in the same space largely without repetition. I think on balance, if a question has more than two different answers here, the correct ones are all the same, or the question is OT/TB/UC/POB. | |
| Apr 20, 2018 at 12:11 | comment | added | gdrt | @Nij, I believe, the extremely low visitor number is just a bug (we usually have a decent 6000-8000 here), it suddenly went down in other communities as well. Question rate is an eternal problem of Beta sites, there's nothing much we can do. But the answer ratio is something that we the answerers can improve and I think it's something that frequent users should keep in mind. | |
| Apr 20, 2018 at 11:33 | comment | added | Nij♦ | If our answer ratio is a problem, our visitor numbers and question rate is a disaster. Having more answers for what is already here won't help a huge amount. @gdrt | |
| Apr 20, 2018 at 11:20 | comment | added | gdrt | @studro, these comments qualify to be a decent answer. Please keep in mind that we need to improve our answer ratio. It would be awesome if you could post a new answer with all these links. | |
| Apr 19, 2018 at 23:32 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | FIFA Magazine also included an article about the topic in 1997 that may or may not be relevant anymore for their competitions. | |
| Apr 19, 2018 at 23:30 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | Here is some information - potentially outdated now [2006] - on the committee that decides in the Premier League. | |
| Apr 19, 2018 at 23:30 | comment | added | Reinstate Monica 2331977 | This is generally correct. You won't be likely to find a source, because there are none. In most competitions, either the competition administrator, a committee or the referee makes the final decision, and how they do that is usually a matter for them. | |
