I think Sean Thornton has cornered the market for baby unicorns, but I’ve got some magic beans for a reasonable rate. PM if interested.

So if the original decisions that went for us were wrong, and were corrected by VAR, why is that a minus? Surely if the correct decision has been made by VAR it is status quo?

You quote it If you want. The ball doesn’t only have to go forward for you to be offside. I’ll leave it there. The rest of you can continue the debate if you want.

We could go on all day like this, but no it doesn’t. The failure to understand the basic rules of football on this forum beggars belief. Some of the utter drivel I’ve read on this thread (other than it beimg WUMs) makes me despair.

No it doesn’t. It really doesn’t.

I wish I had a pound for every time the offside rule has been explained on this forum. I think some of our supporters have got the attention span of a goldfish. Souza was running back from an offside position (and interfering with play) when he touched it to McB. Correct decision, unfortunately.

No. I’m saying that playing the under 23s is no reason for not buying a season ticket. I don’t watch the under 23s so I don’t know who will make it or not, but I would still watch them as, by definition, they would be in the first team squad. If they’re good enough, they’re old enough.

I expect Manchester United fans had the same thought when they had to watch that early 90s team containing their Under 23s, Beckham, Butt, Giggs, Scholes and Gary and Phil Neville.

I suspect we could still manage to lose the game 2-0.

Seeing as we kick off at 8, then I suppose you’re right.

Much like your avatar, you need your bumps felt.

Anybody who can read all the threads and forums every day needs a sainthood, or a certification of sanity.

Thanks for the info. Like a lot of others I don’t read every thread on every forum every day.

Yes. But I am always wrong (so Mrs ECL says) so no.

It think Redknapp only needs to look at the history of Liverpool to see what a ‘scandalous’ tackle is. For reference I give him Graham Souness and Tommy Smoth.

I hope this now settles the argument. Osborn was offside throughout and was correctly called offside by the end of the VAR review. I just wish we could all hear these dicussions as they are happening so that the fans are included and not left speculating as to what happened on the pitch.

If you look at it again I would say it deflected back towards goal off the back of the defender‘s head. It wasn’t a deliberate action so Osborn is offside. Notwithstanding that element, Osborn was offside from the first head down so irrespective of whether the ball came back to him off a...

You cannot be played onside by a deflection. That’s always been the case. It’s not new. If the defender had passed the ball towards the goal that would be a different matter. In this case Osborn was offside from the initial head down, and remained offside. The only matter to cloud the issue was...

Maybe nothing more than catching a reasonably close Premier League match with a relegation rival while injured and not involved with first team duties.

Yes. That sounds familiar. The bottled beer I was thinking of was Double Maxim.

Used to drink loads of that when I lived in Sunderland more than 50 years ago. It was sold in Vaux brewery pubs to rival Newcastle Brown, but on tap, rather than bottle. Vaux also did a bottled beer, but can’t remember its name. Too many pints under the bridge 😀

Looking at your avatar, would you be giving them bulldog clips?

Firstly, commiserations for having to work in Leeds. Secondly 100% Wednesday.

At Liverpool, the sun shines out of Klopp’s arse, so the consideration of the ‘right to light’ for properties surrounding the ground does not come into the equation.

I don’t want this to get over complicated, but strangers coming to the city may not know that cars are exempt from the Clean Air Charge. I am just saying that on the Council website you can check whether your vehicle (car, van, lorry) is liable to, or exempt from the charge. From driving down...

Having read the comments I had to look at the fixtures again, and it’s definitely Brighton we are playing and not Prime Man City. Jeez, ’Parking the bus’ and ‘ Brighton’ are not words I would expect to see in the same sentence.

Yes, but the OP says he’s coming with six others meaning he might be in a van, or a light goods vehicle which do come under the regulations.

Bladeloyal talks about your vehicle being ‘uzel ‘ approved. This is not a weird South Yorkshire sexual practice but a Clean Air Zone. Search Sheffield Clean Air Zone and you can input your car registration and it will tell you whether there is a charge for taking your vehicle into the centre of...

Clearly the card was printed by a future Wednesdayite 😀
