    Do we know for certain that one of the players on the line didn't get a touch or deflect the ball in?

    It goes past two players, who have no influence in whether the goal is scored or not.

    They are not interfering at all.

    By your logic, if they were "offside" having a picnic near the corner flag, they'd be offside.

    The ball goes nowhere near "through" them. It goes nowhere near them. The goalie is not impeded, they don't impede anyone else.

    That's a goal. Or should have been. I'm not complaining.

    Is the man on the video conversing with bats or dogs?

    What is funny is, the ref, after speaking to the Assistant, points to the centre spot as if to indicate a goal.

    I suggest you watch it again when sober.

    How can you be so sure from that angle that one of those two players didn't touch the ball?

    What will I then see?
    2 blokes who play no part in whether the ball ends up in the net?

    In that positioncan’t not be interfering with play
    Can’t see how they couldn’t be not interfering with play in that position, player on line must surely have been aware of them

    Offside for me, even if they don't get a touch they are in the way meaning they are interfering with the defenders ability to defend the incoming shot. After slowing it down I think one of them might even get a slight touch.

    Maybe 2 blokes who impeded the view of our last defender being able to have a clear sight in order to react and clear...

    It's the only thing I can see that will legitimately class it as offside

    We got the rub of the green .
    Why complain ?
    I used to sit near a guy who complained that Connor got streetwise when the opposition basically cheated against us .
    What do reds really want ?

    IMG_4478.jpg didn’t number 28 get a touch? It looks to go very near to him...?

    Defending is absolutely shocking though...

    Its time this interfering with play ***** was consigned to the bin where it belongs. Was it Shankly or Clough that said if youre not interfering with play what the hell are you doing on the pitch?

    The offside rule as originally written is incredibly simple and objective; by interfering and adding ifs buts and maybes the old farts have contrived to make it complicated, subjective and damn near impossible for match officials to call correctly in real time.

    Then thanks to the wonders of modern tech, with multiple angles and frame by frame slomo, a million pundits analyse these decisions - and STILL get them wrong.

    As I see it from that footage, It doesn’t look like either of those 2 players touched it. To answer your question though, I can’t be sure. I can only say what I see. It looked like the penalty decision at Sunderland was an incorrect one from my position at the other end of the pitch up in the gods. Watching footage later confirmed it was a wrong decision.

    Clearly offside , the rule says you have to have two defenders behind the ball & there is only one , offside all day long from that shot.

    Two players offside there depending on when the ball was played

    The problem was though, players were being called offside for simply being in an offside position, which was never in the rules, but it didn’t stop linesman from flagging. Incidentally, it wasn’t the old farts as such, it was about modernising the game and trying to make it more exciting.

    Just to clarify, from the BBC highlights neither Southend player on the line touched the ball.
