Match Thread | Young Boys vs Man City (25/10/23)

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I said handball when it happened

What was the difference between that and the one in our box a bit earlier on that wasn’t a penalty?

 

[Josh_D]

Would have been a goal in your day. ;-)

Haha, my day? I’ve not had one of those.

 

[I'm Blue]

Thought handball didn’t matter unless it was the goal scorer?
Or is that premier league?

 

[uwerosler28]

If that's enough to not allow the goal then they should have had a penalty earlier for the same thing

 

[heslops barnet]

i thought we had a new rule that it didnt get pulled back for handball unless it was the scorer?

They make it up as they go along

 

[Mancity1980]

wtf is grealish doing

That’s twice the ball has hit his hand, he was lucky to get away with the first one.

 

[deano ou812]

Hmmm we seem to get goals disallowed a lot in champions league when really they haven’t used their hand to control it or gain an advantage..

 

[Bluesince1979]

Was thinking the same, not so much Darke, to be fair I think he's trying to talk Hoddle down, but Hoddle's commentary drives me nuts. I'd rather have Neville and that's saying something.

Hoddles creepy as fuck . Lowers his voice as though only he is the holder of all football knowledge

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

We seem so close to absolutely blowing a team away but it's not quite clicking.

Let's hope it's Sunday.

i think so you are right

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I thought the rule changed that if it a handball wasn't the final pass it couldn't be given retrospectively?

There are a lot of rules that get changed mid-game when they affect us.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Pretty sure that goal would stand in the PL.

If you pass the shirt colour check.

 

[wattle]

How far back does a var check go? That’s ridiculous.

 

[TheBlueCat]

Does anyone know the handball rule? Pls let me know because I’m struggling

I thought I knew but now I’m completely confused. The game has been ruined

It will be on Saturday.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Jack's hands, fingers, nails are a fuckin' millstone. Is there any chance he can play with 'em stuffed down the inside of his shirt?

 

[imrebanana]

Lovely strike by Alvarez despite that. Ffs

 

[Irishblue93]

Did they not change that rule

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

There are a lot of rules that get changed mid-game when they affect us.

Or rule changes after we've been fucked over.
