I'd prefer something like in Ice Hockey, the "pitch" in thirds with the 2 dividing lines being an offside line and you're only offside if you're in your teams offensive third when the puck/ball enters it. Linesmen will then have a definitive line to look along and won't have to be looking in 2 places at once making the decisions easier.
