This thread is more boring than 115 thread…..

[hello]

Shouting at a bus FFS. Do they still throw rocks at the moon in Wolverhampton?

They do and they don't move out of the way when the rocks start falling back to earth.

My City-supporting mate is a qualified referee and has been officiating in the Isthmian League (Level 7) this season.

"It wasn't offside, but I feared the worst when I saw the linesman pressing the buzzer on his flag and then keep it lowered in his right hand as a sign that there might be a potential infringment. This is common practice at Level 6 and above
That would make sense because the linesman might see that Silva was in an offside position but wouldn't be sure if he was interfering with playing.
In that situation the referee should run over for a quick chat, but this definitely didn't happen"

TBF to the linesman Bernardo from the side angle could appear to be infront of the keeper so yuo can understand why he raises his flag....the view from infront of the goal tells you that Benardo isnt in line with the keeper and the keeper can see perfectly fine....not sure the ref would have been able to spot that in real time so VAR checking it was definitely useful on this occasion.

He flagged him as offside when stones headed it, as he's in an offside position.

What he didn't account for/couldn't see is that he wasn't interfering with play.

No he didnt, the flag went up miles later

Exactly, Eddie should have been stronger & more determined just like the wolves keeper today, the difference is the reaction by the media who didnt mention it when we conceded but by tommorow will probably calling for a replay of todays game :-)

Are you really blaming eddie ? And not the gooners on him

I was away for the weekend and only just seen the goal. Who are the 6 people who think that should be disallowed? On what basis? Would have been an absolute joke to disallow that

Think we’ve proven that 0.8% of football fans are registered blind.

Have Arsenal fans always been this insufferable but no one cared because they haven't been that good or is this new?

The answer is yes, it’s just that they’ve not been relevant since the invention of social media, so it seems new.

Should be a shoo- in for next month’s “Mic’d Up” programme I’d imagine.

Well we all know it wont be why Chelsea were denied a penalty and Dippers got one for almost the same foul

 

[Eccles Blue]

John Boy scored the goal. That is indisputable.
End of thread surely? ;-)

Obviously a foul on him but Eddie needed to force his way out of the situation even flatten one of the tarquins if needed, make more of the foul so it couldnt be ignored like it was, he is a big lad he should put himself about a bit more than he does :-)

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Arsenal score a set piece goal, the set piece coach is the next big thing, as he knee slides along the turf in celebration, with Arteta sucking his knob. City score a goal from a set piece, cheating bastards. Fucking hilarious

Not siding with the Tarquinius in any way but whenever I see the Arse get a corner I’m shitting myself as they are so good at them. By contrast when we get a corner I tend to take myself to the toilet to deal with aforementioned shit as we are generally crap (oh Lord another poo reference) at them and I won’t miss anything.
Then along came the man, rock on Stonesy!!!!

 

[I'm Blue]

He didn’t take it well. Lol!

With kids about he deserves to be knocked out for that behaviour.

Noddy Holder's sounding rougher than ever.
Bless!

Always. Never forget them booing Emmanuel Eboue to tears. Absolute cuntish fanbase.

Just watching the MOTD2 highlights. Wolves really didn’t defend those corners well. None of them were any good other than the last one.
