The Stones Goal

Was it right to give a goal?

How this vote is only on 99.3% after I cast my vote is a disgrace but them again 99.9 wouldn't be enough, honestly I can only assume the others pressed no accidentally or weaklings who've let their rag or dipper mates poison their mind.

It's easily a goal every single time no question about it and yes Bernardo was bugging the keeper, who then very clearly pushed him away at which point his eyes were solely on the trajectory of the ball in play, he was watching before it went near Stones he was fully focused and ready to try and stop the header.

Anybody saying this goal shouldn't stand are completely clueless on the rules of the game, many social media pages love this kind of thing as it's rage bait it gets them all their clicks, it whips clueless idiots into a frenzy they couldn't care less about whether or not the goal should stand they want morons to moan.

This was initially flagged offside and is actually an amazingly great case of VAR doing a job it was put in place for, instead you've got Muppets who don't have a clue about the rules of the game up in arms about it.

The FA or referee chief whoever it is nowadays if he hasn't already, they should be saying this incident was 100% the right call under the laws of the game.

It rightly would barely get a mention had any of the red shirt brigade scored it, except to say how legitimate the goal is so a statement needs to be made but we'll see.

I can’t remember a goal where a player has moved out of the way of the goalkeeper at the point of contact with the ball that has been ruled out.

The Wolves one from last season, the Wolves lad is directly in front of the keeper.

If it was any other team those that voted Against would have voted For

that's because if that was any other team there wouldn't have been the outcry and anger.

Indeed, this is what O'Neil was complaining about as he drew parallels with our last minute Kilman goal last season as Chirewa was stood in front of Fabianski. On Sunday, once we took our heads out of our hands we saw that the lino in front of the City fans had his flag up and we thought Kavanagh was going to the screen to rule out the goal. I do think that we could have had a free kick for the Nunes push on Guedes prior to play switching to the other end and the series of corners.

We are in the shit big time and will take anything we can get right now, was expecting a right hiding prior to this game. Sa coming back in goal saved us a bit I think, better keeper than Johnstone as shown on Sunday

Sa? He is capable of being a top keeper. Sadly Wolves in their infinite wisdom decided to sign Sam Johnstone for £10m and immediately put him in the team ahead of Sa and he has been pretty poor/mediocre at best in every game. O'Neil only put Sa in on Sunday as SJ is injured. O'Neil then gave a cryptic interview after the game leaving us all guessing as to whether SJ will be back in when fit

The expectation is that Sa will be sold to Saudi in January and we will be stuck with SJ as first choice and Dan Bentley (Championship reserve keeper) as no.2 as Sa's face doesn't fit with the coaching staff. We have become a bizarre club. Apparently SJ was signed as his agent plays Golf with our so called DOF Matt Hobbs, the man responsible for delivering us O'Neil (don't start me on him)

I know, no other PL club operates how we do and that's why we are rock bottom. Our squad is much better than where we are in table but poor coaching and organisation, terrible in game management and defensive blunders have us in that position.

We sold Max Kilman in the summer for £40m but didn't replace him, relying instead on Yerson Mosquera who was untried but had done well on loan in Spain. Admittedly he started the season well but then got crocked and is out for months. We have finally sorted out the striker situation bringing in Jorgen Strand Larsen, Haaland's mate who scored on Sunday, our first worthy target man since Raul Jimenez got crocked by David Luiz in 2020. O'Neil spent his first ever pre-season coaching the team for a back 4 then after the season began said he didn't have the players for that system.

Its my opinion that the longer O'Neil stays the more likely we are to go down (as will please quite a few on here having read the post match thread!)

O’Neil’s complaint is daft though because the two incidents he’s talking about are different.

At the point of contact with the man heading the ball, the Wolves player is right in front of the West Ham keeper, but BSilva is out of the way:

And the Wolves lad doesn’t get out of the way at any point, he actually backs the keeper back to his own goal line, whereas BSilva is miles away:

Think that's to do with Wolves siding against us in the APT case. I have no issue with the Wolves fans though, they aren't the board.
