Still not Pedro Mendes level of corruption but if you were a Sheffield Utd fan you’d be livid. Football is a bit shit really isn’t it?

The problem is we have all been happily carrying on for years trusting hawkeye for every decision around the goalline. Even when it comes down to a mm we believe it. But if its shown that it can sometimes not work that changes everything.

Doesn't use a chip. There are 7 cameras around the goal that detect if it has crossed

Either the system stopped working between it being tested pre-match and when it happened, or the location of the ball crossing the line so close to the post with the GK leaning against the net screwed up the computer. The ball probably was in line with the goal post due to the GK leaning on the net. Maybe they never tested that?

Now I remember how much I actually hate football when they can’t get the most basic of decisions correct.

Whilst I commend the blacklivesmatter on the backs of the players shirts, if ever there was a game where I actually need the players names on their shirts it’s this one. I’ve no idea who half these players are!

I fully expect a few games like this at the start.

Where on Earth was VAR for the Sheffield goal?

awaits inevitable petition from the bin dippers about the Stones“non goal” last season meaning that they actually won the league and not Man City.

Just watching that game made me realise I didn't miss it when it was gone.
