Seirously doubt we’ve got the money to do that. Well down the list of priorities.

That’s fine except when a definitive statement like “X always gives the ball away” is made and it’s clearly not true. Of course the old “not everything that counts can be counted” stuff applies, but clear nonsense like that can still be disproven.

Halfway between the two edges? I mean if we have sub mm level accuracy tech anyway… I voted no goal before these pics BTW, I’m just saying it’s never felt right to me. Same as high feet or shepherding the ball, just something that doesn’t sit right despite being the rules.

Whole ball, middle of the white line.

Middle of the line for me. It’s not logical, just feels wrong to me. Genuine question is that the rule for all lines? Is a foul a mm into the pen area like a pen?

I counted 12 seconds for one today, it’s not even a close call.

Then the paint would be wrong technically. I think the whole ball whole line thing is a stupid rule but it is the rule.

Yep, fromhttps://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-12---fouls-and-misconduct

Bevause it’s reconstructed. It likely works off a virtual line based on the base of the goal posts calibrated on set up not on the actual painted lines.

Isnt it the fourth official that does timing? I might be imagining it but didn’t Waghorn start counting to six when the keeper has the ball once? We should do more of that.

He gets nothing and is constantly pulled around.

Seems very arbitrary to me.

How was the Tavares one not? I thought the Hyam one was as well.

This is why I love stats. Cuts right through the football fan confirmation bias.

Not arguing about the yellow, more the thing Hamer does a lot where he barges a player off the ball, it was my understanding that was allowed. If the rule isimpeding an opponent then shepherding the ball is against the rules surely? Basically I don’t think he’s being reckless and according to...

Quite literally one of the highest pass completion rates in the squad but go off.

The one where Allen got the lowest WhoScored rating out of everyone on the pitch.

I think i speak for everyone when I say

Fully expect Saturdays game to be called off cos half our team have covid. Only excuse for that performance.

Wish there was a technology that buzzed when a penalty is conceded. Oggy today saying Hyam was too far from the ball for it to be a pen? Wut?
