<P> 6 . When a player has kicked the ball any one of the same side who is nearer to the opponent's goal line is out of play and may not touch the ball himself, nor in any way whatever prevent any other player from doing so until the ball has been played, but no player is out of play when the ball is kicked from behind the goal line </P> <P> As football developed in the 1860s and 1870s, the offside law proved the biggest argument between the clubs . Sheffield got rid of the "kick - throughs" by amending their laws so that one member of the defending side was required between a forward player and the opponents' goal . </P> <P> The compromise rule that was written into the Laws of the Game in 1866, and eventually adopted universally, was to adopt a form of the Cambridge rule, but with "at least three" rather than "more than three" opponents . </P> <P> The rule changed to "two opponents" in 1925 and led to an immediate increase in goal - scoring . 4,700 goals were scored in 1,848 Football League games in 1924--25 . This number rose to 6,373 goals (from the same number of games) in 1925--26 . </P>
