Ditto……from South Stand it looked fully over the line…..don’t think any Blackburn players appealed for it though.

The two around McBurnie appealed when the ball went in - you can see in the stills up thread.

You couldn’t relax against Blackburn when we were 3-0 up and they hadn’t even had a shot on target?

If you didn’t talk such bollocks I wouldn’t have to come on and correct you all the time. Your negativity about everything to do with United is fucking pathetic

You can't win against people like that. If his prediction had come true, he'd have been saying "told you so". When his prediction doesn't come true it's "I was being funny/ironic etc and you're thick for not understanding this".

finally got the stills from Saturday. shows it was cock from Blackburn defender. this 1 below after he's been hit in the back & its gone in. Blackburn defender is clearly in play as he's just in front of the line.

then hilariously he protests. realises where he is & steps further back to pretend he was never on the pitch. all futile attempts because regardless he was still being play onside by the Blackburn player beside him

Also their 'keeper is fully a yard on the pitch and as such is clearly playing N'Diaye onside.
This is a rule readily recognised amongst we Blades supporters when we are playing at home!!!

Huge euphoria after yesterday's game and rightly so, but just to bring a little bit of Blades pessimism to the fore let's all remember this.

...and remember class, when we extrapolate the curve outside the current season, we can see it all started to go horribly wrong in the early 1930s. It just took us almost a century to realise
