Who cares. We won.
We get some decisions that go against us and we get some that go for us (unless you're totally paranoid)

Marvin I agree with you 100%. Grass being visible between the 'base' of the ball and the line doesn't prove it was out - only an aerial view would settle this. Think of the images produced by Hawk Eye in tennis.
For the record, I think it was just out but it was marginal, and the decision made was not unreasonable at all.

Sorry pal but you are just plain wrong about this. Get yourself a ball and try it if you don't believe me. There is no parallax so long as you look down the line, from above, below, high up, low down - it doesn't matter. So long as you look along the line. As I say, try it.

This is basic geometry, not rocket science.

(To be completely accurate, if you were only 2 feet from the ball (literally), then being directly overhead could make the ball appear on the line when in fact it was out. But we aren't discuss that are we.)

It's was out.
Transfer ban for us for next 3 years slur taggart was at the game

He looked to have a City 'minder' just in case he kicked off after we got the third.

 

[Sigh]

Haha I can't believe there's a debate on this. Yes it was out, a couple of inches just and hard to tell in real time but there's been a million replays where it's bloody obviously out.

You cannot be serious. The ball was on the line.

It's now got to the stage of a Frenzy with Evertonians. Personally I think they should just DRAW A LINE UNDER IT and get on with it!!!!!!!!

Chalk it up to bad luck.
