Match of the Day - 2018/19

[Pigeonho]

I thought he did very well under the circumstances.

What circumstances?

What circumstances?

I just thought I'd take an opposing view to feel what it's like to be Pigeonho.

But what circumstances are you on about?

In my opinion, a referee's job is very difficult in the heat of a Premier League game and they deserve a lot more credit than they receive.

He’s shit. That was a nailed on penalty.

Briliant, if I could do that gif of the man clapping I would.

Oooh you are awful...

Mane was onside when he scored. Should have stood.

Mane quite clearly and purposely runs towards the ball when it's played.

Offside.

Simple.

@pudge is spot on. How anyone can say Mane wasn't interfering with play is beyond me.
Incidently the Arsenal goal offside goal was identical in that the scorer wasn't offside but the player jumping in the middle of the pitch who tried to head it but missed was offside and was clearly interfering with play

I've gone with the commentator and saying he's onside as it's the second phase of play, yes the first passage of play he's off but the it goes into the second phase after it's hit the bar so he's back on again.

The commentator was surprisingly wrong, fancy them not knowing the rules

 

[FantasyIreland]

Bring back the old rule,none of this second phase/interfering with play bollocks.

 

[oakiecokie]

Perhaps he also posted his CV off to Woody last night!

In fairness to him he`d do a better job than Maureen.

Too much opportunity for individual interpretation and fudge as its applied now

Interfering like fuck.

Offside as fuck.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

The different phases are simply there to screw over various teams and advantage others. Marriner got it all fucked up yesterday. Had that been at Anfield and Dippers in red shirts, the goal would have stood. For The Arse, in red shirts at the Emirates, the goal is disallowed. To come first and second phase in that move is just manipulating bullshine. Kung Fu Mané was offside. Any decent ref would have given offside, no argument. Yer fucked up, André! Klippity has removed you from his Weihnachten card list!

Succinct

 

[BlueHammer85]

Not like you to pull some random shit out of your arse, you ok?

Out of interest, Why was my post ‘random shit’ ? Pretty clear in the rules that players can not remove shirt and show messages however intended. You obviously had no counter argument.

AKA...cheating.often dressed up as incompetence .

As a manager i do rate Eddie Howe but for fucks sake man you got that completely wrong :
"Manchester United are a world class team".
What the fuck have you been smoking son ?

Wow! Did he really say that?!! Silly man.a team struggling to hold off Bournemouth everton and watford for the higher mid table posistions ,dumped out the league cup by a championship side,beaten by brighton ..and whose greatest moment this season was coming from 2nil down to beat a very poor newcastle side,and who have failed to win a trophy for a year and a half cannot ,under any stretch of the imagination be described as 'world class'

Bournemouth prob pay their 4 main strikers a total of no more than 200k a week; utd prob shell out just under a million every week for theirs....,yet have a goal difference inferior by 5 compared to the south coast club.they may pay world class wages,but utd and their 658 million fans are currently a world class joke.
