I agree this is just using the rules to your advantage, but if it's done by a 
horse-faced arrogant git, then in my book it is cheating!

Not cheating. It is merely knowing and exploiting the loopholes. Fat Sam used 
to put players on the posts at free kicks who would push out as the kick was 
taken so they weren't called offside. Son the refs took this as movement 
intended to distract, started to penalise and his team stopped it
