If you only want to see games where we’re likely to win you’re picking the wrong club
Of course we did, it's a fucking FA Cup final! To have been the Championship club that genuinely battled their way to the final would have been phenomenal, regardless of the result.
And when they realise they are wrong, the most they will do is issue an half-arsed apology. United will still be in the final. It stinks.
Liverpool bang on about the ‘miracle’ of Istanbul where they, Champions League level, came back from 0-3 against another Champions League level team, to draw and win the shoot out. Yesterday would have eclipsed that ‘miracle’ when a team 8th in the Championship cane back from 0-3 to Man Utd with 20 minutes to go and won 4-3. History, and snatched away. The united players were all on the floor, half their ‘fans’ had gone and some absolute bell end of a VAR bends over backwards to rule the goal out.
Ha! I was banging on about Istanbul at three down... more gallows humour... but then brought it back up at 3-3 with 'told ya' like I was some sage!
Get rid of digital thinking, it's a shit decision stop defending it or at least appeasing it it's not real!!
given that the camera is not dead in line how do they account for the parallax angle when deciding if a shoulder makes someone onside of offside?
The offside system is the one aspect of VAR that I believe can work well in the future. But I think it needs a major overhaul to stop decisions such as this one from happening
They need to start accounting for the margin of error. This is exactly why they have umpire’s call in cricket
This is exactly how I got it drawing the lines myself.
It's my coping mechanism at the moment
The margin of error is around 15cm when you factor in frame rates, speed of players and speed on the ball. But you also can't reliably draw lines based on something in the air like a shoulder so that adds something else in.
Which brings us back to clear and obvious. Nobody would have an issue with VAR if it was only being used to stop the massive errors.
Not sure that's enough. In other sports the rule for video replay is that there has to be conclusive evidence to overrule the decision on the pitch, wouldn't that be better than having someone doing their best to get lines in the right place?
Sometime in the not too distant future there will be a VAR hall of fame where we can see Hadji’s toenail along with various eyelashes and pubic hairs of famous prem players.
If that's correct, I would imagine it's when Cal initially made contact with the ball to play the pass, rather than when it left his boot.
Is no different from "we'll give it a go".
He first made contact with it 20 yards further back as he ran forwards with it, so where does he make the pass? Surely it has to be when the ball has left his foot
Doesn’t say that in the offside part but yep it’s got to be
Hence I’m not sure the only still we have is taken at the right time and should have been slightly delayed or the law needs clarifying
An appeal won't get us anywhere, we just have to let it go.
VAR should have no place whatsoever in the game though.

We will have gained an enormous worldwide presence yesterday. It will make us even more attractive to incoming players and media etc. we have to hold our heads high and move on to an exciting summer .
I would love to hear the audio - it ought to be mandatory
It’ll be
We’re checking the offside on the ball through
Yep got the pictures and the line
Just offside I repeat the on field decision needs to be overturned idfk offside
Thanks
If that's their best, they need to give up their day jobs.
Exactly my argument. Just use it for the clear and obvious, so stuff the officials have very clearly missed and everyone will be happy and VAR would work just fine.
I say we all turn up at Wembley on final day and protest 
if this is not overturned.
See you all there !
