An in house joke.



Similar to your "analysis"
We'll wait for the PGMOL to issue the retraction.

Its no big deal. I hate VAR with a passion. People who love rules and regulations love it, even if half the decisions it makes are wrong, and the other half are not right.

Just the way different people see things.

VAR is bilge, it was supposed to be for clear and obvious errors, yet here we are discussing whether a toe or armpit is offside. Much preferred football pre VAR.

Nothing wrong with hating it at all.
But the outrage with the Stockley Park folks is a bit silly.
Mistakes will happen but todays wasn't one of them

Imagine if you were a Sheff Utd. fan today and spent a fortune to see your team at Spurs. You are denied a goal in the most ridiculous of circumstances after a 3 minute wait until they got the "imaginary line" in just the right place to show half a toe was ahead of the defenders knee cap in the build up to a goal . Of course, it is almost impossible to know the precise moment when the ball was kicked or what frame the picture was stopped at but hey ho lets ruin the game anyway and take away the most enjoyable aspect of it  - celebrating a goal.

The still photograph in your earlier post - you think that shows the Sheffield player offside in any meaningful sense? I just cannot see it - that is just a snapshot at a particular moment. You could stop the frame fractionally before that, you draw the line a millimeter different and then you have the small matter of when the ball was actually passed forward which is very controversial in itself. And this is in the build up play well before the goal.

Two refs reffing one game is fraught with disaster. Finding one decent ref is hard enough.

Whether the photograph is 100% accurate in relation to the decision I haven't the foggiest.
However in the VAR world its the official one that's been published & its offside as per the laws.

We will have to agree to disagree.

Could be worse.... with lots of younger lads nowadays succumbing to what used to be a predominantly female act of shaving their pits, had there been VAR back in the day it literally could have been a hair's breadth from being a goal
