get rid. decisions arent any less contentious.
There’s an old boy in front of me, shows up in sandals regardless of weather as I think he has some kind of foot problem, constantly running up and down (think to the loo) and back so I suspect he might be diabetic.I think what will make it even worse is that when I get back in the stadium the twats who moan for 90 minutes every game haven’t moved seats. If they haven’t I might cry.

Anyway, all he does is mouth off all match. Gets on every players back. Insults the opposition and the refs. And worse, he’ll constantly try to get involved with other fans around him if he hears something he disagrees with.
One time I had the temerity to, quietly, criticise Sissoko to my dad, next to me. Private conversation. Next thing I know he’s turned around, eye balled me, and when I ignore him he actually starts verbally abusing me, almost squaring up to me, and as I continue to ignore him he just turns around and loudly mutters about me for about ten minutes afterwards.
I really hope he’s not there.
Even in his old age I’m pretty sure he would make mincemeat out of me. I’m about as tough as sugar free jelly.Chin him Gin
Mate, that’s a violation of your own personal space and comfort as a fan who’s paid for a ticket, especially if you’re there with your dad. Classic bullying. My advice…don’t put up with it!There’s an old boy in front of me, shows up in sandals regardless of weather as I think he has some kind of foot problem, constantly running up and down (think to the loo) and back so I suspect he might be diabetic.

Yes, but it would have been overturned using any brain other than that of a PL ref in any approach described in this threadon field call was offside for Harry.
It surprised me that the linesman put the flag up. I really thought they were told not to because goals would be reviewed anyway. So they'd let it go, let the video decide and then we see what happens.He was level. End of story!

Instead they put the flag up really early and got the goal disallowed. It was dead level, which always meant onside.
If the flag didn't go up would it be a goal? and VAR isn't there to overrule the on-field decision. What a shambles.

So how is level now offside when forever it was onside?It would've been ruled out either way as the var showed it as offside. There is no clear and obvious error rule for this. He was level and the linesman was definitely guessing but it didn't alter the final outcome.

Without VAR both calls would still have been the same. Linesman flagged Kane off and Rafinha on.
So we can ditch VAR, but it wouldn’t have changed either call. VAR didn’t change what was called on the field.
Quite. As you, and MotD @coopsieyid , say he was level to any normal rational human being. Unfortunately the software and people running it think he was about 1mm the wrong side of the defender and that is enough to rule the goal out.
What would be kind of interesting to see/know is if the refs do any review or training sessions of these close incidents and whether different, or even the same, refs come up with different outcomes.
