And what if there's more people want to disembark at a station than can be accommodated by the "shuttle"? Doh!

The "goal" should have been disallowed, the Torquay player cautioned with a yellow card for unsporting behaviour (see Law 12 of Rules of the Game), and an indirect free-kick awarded from where he first touched the ball as it is quite obvious he was trying to gain an advantage by sneaking up on the goalkeeper. Justice was served when the home side Torquay went on to lose the game 1-2 to Stockport. As a referee myself I'm at a loss as to why the referee here didn't class this as "unsporting", but it's just that sort of behaviour it was introduced to combat. If you can embarrass an opponent using skill then fair enough. The Laws of the Game have been expanded & adapted over the years to combat the various forms of cheating etc. and at the time of this match (2 Jan 2005) "unsporting behaviour" was a valid sanction.

Just my sanctimonious twopennethworth...

Uh... WHY was the towed car being videoed in the first place...?!!!

Hmmmm... wonder how effective those "rays" would be through foil or sheet metal? And for that matter how the emitter "gun" would react to those same rays being sent back to it using a reflective parabolic dish?! Just a thought...
