No I'm saying he mostly seems to have played very much from the left side even before he joined us. What some people seem to be assuming though is that he was bought as an out-and-out centre forward, which I doubt was the intention even though I expect he could do it. Clearly from the player's...

The notion that Wright playing wide on the left was new to him is wrong. That's where you'll find him on most of the highlights reels from before he joined us.

We are in the realms of fantasy here. Surely you've seen the way they take vertical lines to shoulders where appropriate?

You said young players

If the Glaziers had bought us, they'd have had that window fixed at Ryton on Day 1.

Nope, you were very much on your own mate.

And/or overspill for ST holders in the South Stand if they have to move for an FA Cup game?

You're citing Man Utd getting a decision against Liverpool as an example of bias towards the big teams?

Hadn't thought of it like that! There should be some kind of long term loyalty bonus.

Could be as much as a fiver I reckon.

I agree that's strange, and that's actually why I bothered to do my own lines using the mobile pictures from the opposite angle. People can dispute them if they want, but it seems crystal clear to me. There's a website called 'football offsides' which looks at decisions, again drawing...

As I've said a few times, I agree about 'clear and obvious', and they should give more leeway to the attacker. But we are talking about whether they applied the existing rules correctly, and they did. The timing of Haji sticking his left foot out was desperately unlucky. You're absolutely...

This.

OK

Yes it looks it, perhaps twice that amount. In truth I can't tell to that degree of accuracy, but unless you subscribe to the idea that a whole bunch of officials conspired to break the rules, I think it the simplest explanation is that they got it right.

I posted the pics a few weeks ago and it made no difference to people who believe we were robbed. I am sure in 50 years' time there will still be those who say we won the match. If you think Haji is onside in pics 3 and 4, fair enough.

OK, the pics are numbered in order. Each set of parallel lines go to a common point, which is the effect of perspective. Unfortunately under the current (over-fussy) rules it's pretty clear to me, so I don't feel aggrieved. It was bad timing and very bad luck. Draw some different lines (=...

Quavers I heard.

You are aware that the line you're talking about was just the indicative one sent for presentation on the TV? The VAR guys got it absolutely right, and Haji was offside regardless of whether you take the moment COH touches the ball, or the moments just before and after. On another thread a few...

If you watch the footage carefully, there was a small but definite lowering of the woodwork in the split second before Haaland's shot hit the bar this afternoon. One of the pitchside officials could be seen operating a suspicious app on his phone, and immediately afterwards the bar was back in...
