  Stick a player jumping up and down right in front of Geohaghan when he is taking a throwing, not rocket science is it.

  The throw-in law says an opponent has to be at least two yards from the point the throw is taken and must not do anything that unfairly distracts the thrower or prevents the throw being taken. If they do so, then the referee awards an indirect free-kick and can issue a caution for un-sporting behaviour. So, I agree, place someone at the two yard mark, with hands by their side and stretching their lower limbs upwards and making certain not to pull a face, stick out their tongues or shout things at the thrower!!!( Act in the manner that some defenders in a wall move about, prior to a free-kick), and then, at the point where the ball is about to be released, jump up simultaneously and try and defend the ball. The big Mansfield defender threw the ball into our box to set-up their opener and there was nobody near him and he was allowed to put it in at great pace and at headable height and they scored - something I'm sure they will practice all the time. BUT, had we placed one, or maybe two of our players in the manner described, he wouldn't have been able to put it in at such a low trajectory and would have had to go high and then we could have defended it better and as it drops down in the 6/12 yard area at it's highest point, then the keeper should be there to catch!! Well, that's my theory but I would not let him throw in again like he did with the optimum angle/body shape and speed, to cause a real problem and give the attackers the advantage. An opponent(s) in front of him could distract him (within the laws) and give us the advantage!! COYR!!"
