Mark Chapman quoted some of Law 11 that did not apply regarding line of site, just to try and strengthen the case against the officials. However he did not mention the section that says "making a gesture or movement which, in the opinion of the referee, distracts an opponent" is classed as interfering with play. Hart was distracted by Gouffran. You can clearly see Hart start to move as though he is going to dive but stops as Gouffran ducks. Gouffran's movement distracts Hart.

It annoys me when laws are not correctly quoted to strengthen a case. It happened when Vinny was sent off against United and everyone kept saying a two footed challenge was a straight red when the Laws make no mention of two footed challenges.

but that's the current media for you mate

they no longer report the news or analyse the facts, they present opinion as fact and back it up with half truths

no, because maybe he believes he's a free loading lying waster who knows little about being a pundit

Dont we all,squirty,don`t we all.And better Managers on here also. ;)

I notice that there wasn't a City goal in the goal of the month... Hasn't Yaya scored a few half decent free kicks? And what about Kolarov's against Liecester City ? Or Fernandinho's or Aguero's opener both against Arsenal?
Is it just me? Or having been banging them in for fun, surely 1 in contention instead of Saurez having 2....

You do realise Leicester aren't in the Premier League this season don't you?

but he tries to talk with a northern accent

Agree with others on here, the lad side stepped the ball to allow it into the goal, so he interfered with play.

On top of that, who judges who interferes with play, its as subjective as it gets, if Joes says the lad distracted him, its offside cos it interfered with Joe.

It wasn't a goal. simples.
