FA Cup to use semi-automated offsides for first time

good for them, Serie A had it since January 2024, I think, and it seems to have worked fine.

I am not a fan of the way the offside rules have changed over the years (being ahead by a finger counts as offside now, it didn't once) but at least this gives a bit less reasons to fight about what was and was not offside, since things _look_ more objective (they are not, since there's people in the loop, but it's better).

As a non soccer fan, why does the offsides rule even exist at the pro level? It would be far more fun with fast breaks.
