Just seen Norwoods shot from.behind the goal no way was any player in their keepers view as the shot flew in

Saw one in the prem given.last week and they were closer to obscuring the view of the keeper

Was an awful interpretation of an awfully flawed law

Still no idea what was wrong with Berges either

Good point with an injury ravaged squad should have been 3

Berge was definitely offside.
 
""Heckingbottom says replays confirm both goals should have stood and he was far from pleased at full-time. He said: "Sander scores in the first half and he's onside and the goal in the second half, just watch it back and you will see there is not one of our players between the ball and the goalkeeper. "We earned three points, we deserved three points and got it taken away from us. We should have been coming away with a 2-0 win. I am not going to say a bad word about the players when they are giving that and they are let down by officials. It's poor and tough to take.


"I haven't spoken to the officials yet, you can't, but I am going to try and see them now. They are going to say the same as me when they watch it back. They can't wriggle their way out of those, no chance.

"I am not making it up, I've seen them back
 
Berge was deffo off side

Norwood - had VAR been on the case I think that would have stood, billy was offside and maybe in the sight line of the GK, but how the fuck the Lino could judge that from any angle other than behind the shot I don’t see

100% upon review that would have been allowed, but guess we have to accept that when we say football is better without VAR, we also fall foul of not having it.

That said, with a bare bones squad, against a form team away a point and a clean sheet isn’t a bad result

For those who don’t want VAR, this is the consequence -some you win some you lose…..

Terrible decision on Norwoods, Berge however was definitely off.
 
Thought both were legit, would have to watch Berges again though

The replays from behind the goal clearly show no Blades player was in his line of sight.

Although Neil Critchley also claimed so, as he would…blind two hat

“I just couldn’t tell who it hit at the time but it hits one of their players and he’s stood in an offside position.”
 
I'd have to see them both again, but thought both were fine, first time around, the Norwood volley especially.

That's blatantly a lie. Robinson was easily onside.
The question mark is only how much Billy is interfering.
 
It's swings and hedgehogs.
Sometime it's a comfy swing.. Sometimes sat on hedgehog spines in the balls.
Fucking hell lady said we weren't booked in our accommodation. I knew we're were and ended up skanking her.
Don't offer rooms if you can't keep up with bookings fat Mandy. And the sea was cold.
4/7 rating, considering.
FFS.
 
The linesman didn't have the benefit of camera angles and slow-mo replays. He was looking down the line and he would have seen 2 or 3 Blades in apparent offside positions.

I know you’re not trying to defend them but apparent offside isn’t good enough mate. Surely he should only flag if he is certain and if he isn’t then we get the benefit of the doubt.

These are the same numpties that can’t decide on throw ins when the play is about a foot away from them

They were stood in offside positions by a few yards. A common occurance.
But the ball whipped straight through, nothing to do with them.
Not one player protested, or even looked over.

I fully agree in some situations, arguing the lino should do better, when we have TV, but I don't think this is one of them.

Commentary said it was Robinson, who was on side anyway

I think Billy wasn’t in line of sight of the trajectory of the ball, but would have been in the keepers vision - so that then becomes down to interpretation, we will say it’s not in eyeline, goal stands. They will say in eyesight, no goal.

The thing that’s wrong altogether is the lino couldn’t see that, so how can he give it?!

He saw 2 black shirts in offside position and flagged, overruled and goal stands with VAR.
 
I can understand why the lino flagged but the ref was central and hence in a good position to overrule him.

What I can’t understand is why forwards of all teams don’t follow the defenders out when the ball is cleared from corners, they can’t benefit but can cause goals to be disallowed, as demonstrated last night.
 
Definitely??

Hard to tell from this angle. Would like a side on view

What I will say though - it didn't even go in

There was something similar in the PL a few months ago. Can't remember the teams involved, but I believe this to be the rule (please let me know if this is incorrect):

As the goalkeeper is so far off his line, in order for Sander to be onside, at least 2 Blackpool defenders need to be behind the keeper. This isn't the greatest of angles, but for me, it looks like he's well onside.

Also looked like the ball crossed the line from the replay on SUTV.

Fucking robbed IMO.

Yeah the furthest man back doesn't count in the offside. He's acting as the GK if you like.

To be offside you need to be behind 10 opposition players. Berge is definitely behind 9, but appears to be inline with the 10th.

Here's the incident on YouTube. Slow it down to 0.25 speed and I don't think the whole ball crosses.

Both offside, both very tight calls. We move on.
 
anyone remember Huddersfield’s last minute winner against us at home. That was miles offside. This season really is against us.

No doubt the footballing gods will want to send us on a failed trip to Wembley again just to stick the boot in.

Huddersfield also scored a perfectly good goal against us at their place that was disallowed
 
If VAR was available in the Championship surely Norwood's super shot (offside goal) would of been overturned and the goal given. Not sure whether VAR would of overturned Berge disallowed goal.

I’m pretty sure SUTV showed a replay where it’s conclusively over the line. I think he is offside though.
