No change of rule. Looks like they are trying to get out of the corner they had painted themselves into by backing Jon Moss. Back to the previous interpretation most of us already used. Common sense prevails. A bit late though and we suffer for it in that Man City’s goal is now offside whereas apparently not last week. Stupid! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 And they're still banging on about the Sheffield United situation, about why we shouldn't moan about it... How many bad decisions weigh that one out? Unlimited apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Scumbags thats all they are, changing the rules mid season. Mike Riley should be sacked. I look forward to the apology to Smith and his refund 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And claiming we benefited from the new rule on Wednesday... NO WE DIDNT!!! Christ it’s so infuriating. Agreed. It will never change the City result or remove the feeling of being hard done by. (or that it would have been different if it was a Villa player coming from offside.) I did have to laugh how they are still trying to show we have been on both sides of the interpretation. Rubbish. They are just trying to extract themselves from a position they did not need to get themselves into. They could have just have left it with the judgment of the matchday officials but clarified how we have operated for many, many years. I will be interested to see what Dean has to say 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it have just been easier to say they made mistake, give a quick statement about being better in the future and move on. Thats it, admits he makes a mistake we get on with it. Not happy but we move on. Protecting this idiot has just made people angry about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepal_villan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 They also said that Watkins goal was fine because Shar was not impeded by Watkins when touching the ball. So does that mean that if Shar left the cross alone, it would have been an offside? That makes no sense to me, as it would basically encourage a defender to back-off if he thinks there is an offside. Anyway - I thought Watkins was onside because he was behind the ball when it was crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 To be fair to Moss, it isn't his mistake. His lino has made a mistake, but understandable in the circumstances. The VAR mistake is poor, but still somewhat understandable. What is unforgivable is the doubling down, and getting Peter Walton to backtrack on live TV, and then briefing Sky that the same rule had been applied in the Newcastle game, and then this bullshit face saving exercise. **** pathetic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turvontour Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 All these morons saying but what about the second goal. They do realise that the handball and penalty doesnt happen if the first goal is disallowed. We could have lost, drawn or won. We'll never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently posting “shhh” memes and linking that tweet to all the city and Leeds fans who said I was wrong. Absolutely livid, we would have got a point from that game. Hopefully it makes no odds to our final table position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flow of the game would have been completely different. Same with the GLT in the Sheffield United game that supposedly saved us from relegation.

Does Sky think people are that dumb? It's clear why the Watkins goal stood and it wasn't because of desperate deflection from a Newcastle defender. Just admit you got it wrong. Dean is a class manager. He will accept the apology and move on. Enough said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
