The FA and Premier League should be onto Dipperpool straight away to get their VAR system upgraded so this excuse can't be used again. It's just another form of cheating. If it happens again they should be heavily fined. United should be made to have VAR screens at the Swamp - again fined if they don't. Why should all other clubs have to have working screens covering the whole pitch in place and these two teams not be ?
You know the answer……….
 
There are a lot of Leeds 'fans' of a certain vintage in South Wales, jumped on the bandwagon in the 70s.
I was working in Leeds when they had a play off against Derby.
With my mate went to pub to watch the game. They picked up on the accents and kept banging the fuck on about us being Cardiff.
There was 4/5 of them - I wasn’t worried as they were scrawny fuckers but the pub was full and who knows what was in the hidden recesses.
 
So unless VAR is saying that they have conclusive proof the ball came off a Wolves player (first frame), that is an onside goal (second frame).

I put a like on this, but having thought about it, you are wrong. But this is the narrative we are being fed, so I don't blame anyone for supporting this thought process.

The Wolves player who crosses the ball is in an offside position when the first header is made. HE IS NOT OFFSIDE THOUGH, because he is not in the active zone. It therefore does not matter who headed the first ball.

The second header is by a Wolves player. It goes back to the corner take, and another attack is mounted, and this attack ends in a goal. It is this second header that is the point where the Wolves corner taker should be judged for offside, and he is clearly onside when the ball is headed to him.

The linesman might be congratulating himself for spotting an offside that even VAR was unable to confirm or deny, but he should know that a player near the corner flag is not active when the ball is headed upwards from the six yard line, only to come down again very close to the six yard line.

I've yet to hear a convincing argument that absolves Salah from being offside for his goal either.
