Steed had a chance to make it right at the start of the second half today - but hit the side netting.

it always matters on the day - that's why we all watched every game since the cup final, right?

Eh? Why did he need to make it right when he it was the linesman who was at fault? In other words he did nothing wrong in the first place!
I think you missed the point of the thread.

I have to lean on the Flatters side of things here - yeah, dissapointing, yeah the ref's gone and cocked up again, but it's not a conspiracy, it does happen to the big teams sometimes and now the only objective left for our squad this season is to play well enough to warrant a place in next years lineup.
Just because a beautiful move is ruined by some poor officiating doesn't mean that the effort and skills the build up required will be struck from the record - that was as valuable as a goal to those involved right now, who cares if we won by 1 goal or 10 goals, at least it wasn't another f*cking 1 - 1 :up:

Wonder if anyone would notice if we made the goal just ever so slightly larger for next season...

I think you've rather missed the point. He's not saying that Ronaldo's goal was illegitimate, but that Steed's goal, which was far less ambiguous in terms of offside, was deemed illegitimate.
And saying that the Top Four get a greater proportion of the 50-50 decisions isn't far-fetched at all. I'm sure there are stats somewhere...

Oh no you've only gone and done it! How dare you actually speak sense about what is quite obviously an anti-spurs decision!! Dear dear!
What is it about people do they honestly think that the officials go 'hmmm that was a great goal.. but it's Spurs, the big boys in the upstairs of the FA and PL don't like spurs, I remember them pulling out that Manilla file stamped 'TOP SECRET' containing that agenda titled 'lets screw over Spurs just to annoy their fans' better disallow the goal.

no, I get the point of the thread. my point is dont shed a tear for Steed or the team, they had plenty of chances to get a second goal, and we won anyway.
it was a diabolical decision - even in real time it was obvious he was onside - it wasn't even a difficult call to make - the lino was on that side - (I think) the pass didn't travel very far - grrrrrrrrrrrr - terrible decision -
at least it didn't cost us - had it done so it might have relegated another team - but I guess that's life etc bla blah but grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr anyway

If we made it about 20ft higher, and 10ft wider each way, Zokora might even get on the scoresheet.
Okay, maybe he wouldn't. :-|

But it wasn't a 50-50 for Ronaldo, what has he got to do with anything?
We were playing Reading, a team we are a great deal bigger than.
And go back to Carling cup final, lino gave us a penalty that often wouldn't have been given; ref blew his whistle just as Kalou was through on goal.
Stop spouting bullshit, and stop crying about Ronaldo when we got a wrong desicision against us against bloody Reading.

Such a shame this goal was not given, if had been it would've been up for goal of the month, truely brilliant, loved what the commentator said "well that's what you call walking the ball into the back of the net...." "....Tottenham have been denied an excellent goal"

Twas our best move of the game and Steed was miles onside. Shocking decision by the gooner linesman who should be hunted down and made to listen to a Chaz n Dave cd on repeat for 3 days.

Brilliantly set up and brilliantly scored. No question.
Raises the argument yet again of pitchside video replays.
