I've noticed in a lot of the games from this past world cup there were people behind the linesman, outside of the field who just stood there with their backs to the game.
I mean, seriously, who are those people?
And don't they ever get tempted to turn around to see the live game?!
I mean they have the best seats in the entire stadium

They are like Securtiy Guards for if a crazed fan were to jump off the stadiums, they'd be there to stop the fans. I've seen them actually a few times turn around to take a peak at the game, especially if a player scores! LOL it must suck to be there but not be able to watch the match!

Those guys are the stewards. They can't watch the game or they would get sacked. They are there to try to keep fans off the field.

More than likely they are police and they have to watch the stands constantly because of how the fans are always rowdy and fights break out all the time.

they secure the field from hooligans such as yourself storming the field.
