[Silva&Silva]

Akes goal shouldn't have stood, let's call it 4-1.

Fuck that, let's call it even for the VAR call at the swamp back in January.

 

[hammocity]

Silva is an arsehole but I'd have been livid had we conceded that goal.

Silva is an arsehole? Fuck off, what a ridiculous comment, he’s a legend.

Edit: I realise you’re posting about their manager! Sorry.

 

[I'm Blue]

A game of two halves.

 

[cleavers]

Stopping giving a fuck how good decisions are kinda negates how valid your opinion is.

Why ?

Nobody (media) gives a shit when we get debatable ones, they rarely even get mentioned on motd for instance, and we regularly do get debatable ones.

 

[Chi-town blues]

I agree also they were had done by on that decision. If that was against us we would have been pissed off rotten. Blatant interference.

“Subjective.”

Yeah, I apologise for getting involved. I don’t want to get into a shite debate about corruption.

It is noteworthy that the usual bunch are silent on it tonight though.

Thanks for the reply.

Anybody moaning and feeling sorry for the Fulham fans about it being a poor goal for the 2nd goal needs to know it was the officials who fucked up and played by the rule book, you can be offside if you don't touch the ball and when Ake headed the ball the keeper could fully see the ball, so it's not interfering because the clear line of sight,

100% correct, and had they been marking Ake.....

No worries, it just winds me up when our fans give sympathy to the opponent on a debatable decision, when we never get any sympathy from anywhere.

You‘re welcome.

I try to be as objective as I can be about every decision.

It’s easy to suggest that Pep should have concentrated on stopping the through ball to Rashford Fernandes and how the defence could have done better, rather than moaning about a poor decision.

 

[JewelZee]

I thought Doku looked far from a quality signing, very early and nerves would’ve played a part but I don’t know how after watching today you’ve come up with that one tbf

Yawn...

Therein lies the issue, if one is a goal, why is the other not, or the other way round, if one should be disallowed, should the other have been ?

I don't recall Pep being like Silva (or our players being like theirs), I think he was justsarcastic, as Pep usually is.

 

[Impeccable One]

So how was Doku?

So So

If one is a poor mistake, why should it be made again?

We don’t recall what Pep said because we were angry with the decision as we are partisan football fans only wanting fairness for our own football teams and those playing against our rivals.

How did it impact the Keeper? Akanji wasn't in his line of sight of the Ake header. Did Akanji's action prevent the keeper from making a save?

Akanji’s position and actions meant the keeper delayed his dive in case Akanji re-directed the ball.

 

[Summerbuzz]

Palmer?

Fourth person to correct me. Should I correct the other three and tell them the error was pointed out to me within about thirty seconds? I mean, the guy did it with style, and got over 25 likes. I mean, that means, over 25 people corrected me before you. Still, I was grateful to be able to acknowledge my error and offer my correction before the likes came rolling in, in almost the very next post (4 likes, typical).

All I can really do is marvel at Bluemooners ability to say the same thing again, and again, and again.

 

[cleavers]

I think it just shows how arbitory the decisions are, the world (of media) today wants ours disallowed, but a year ago it was all fine and dandy.

My biggest issue with the moaning about today's goal, is that before var it would never have been discussed at all, it's a corner taken, clean header into the corner. In fact in all the EFL games today it would have been a goal, yeah there might have been complaints in hindsight, but without var, it's just a goal, in fact today with var it's still a goal :-)

That was EXACTLY what I said at the time.

No.

Yeah, I disagree, but we’ve discussed it as far as we can.

I just hope it’ll be used for balance when the other threads go mad because a referee should have given a yellow card 12 minutes before he actually did.

I won’t hold my breath though.

Exactly, keeper saw it coming from far away and moved towards the ball .Akanji was not in front of him to block his view .
