linesman

Frank Lampard should have had a second for the Three Lions, but it was wrongfully disallowed by the linesman.

This fact he had pointed out to Mr. Sefton, acting linesman for Lakeville, and the mistake had been corrected.

The fullback falls across the line, the ball gripped in his convulsive hold, just as the linesman's whistle blows.

Thus gradually cavalry became more numerous, and light infantry of all sorts more useful, than the old-fashioned linesman.

His command consisted of five riflemen, a telephonist, a linesman, and two stretcher-bearers.

Neale followed their eyes and saw a squat, swarthy, two-hundred-and-fifty-pound linesman rolling past them towards the Gym.
