Doesn't seem to be the case anymore. A few of the Ref's who ref my games at the weekend have actually told us they will be going a yard further back in order to get a better view of the defensive line, so the teams are allowed to stand a yard in front of the ref. Can't say I agree with it personally because it's pretty hard to judge whether you're onside or not.
