Really is a joke. Seems like we're not just against the opposition but the officials as well. Refs are shocking judges of what's onside and what's not.

It was called offside on the pitch, so even without VAR, the goal wouldn't have been given.

The linesman must have the eyes or a shithouse rat.

I'm waiting for automated offside to be adopted in the Premier League though, which seems like a much better system.

Pretty sure you could teach AI to do it better.

They'd still program it to be biased towards to Man Utd.

I expect as Moreno was offside from the corner being taken until the second before Watkins headed it, it was probably always going to be called offside on the field with VAR to show if it wasn't.

Our weekly we got fucked again by VAR conversation.

Ollie foul that wasn’t given

https://x.com/buendiazboyz/status/1758900489125585279?s=46

Offside that wasn’t



From peoples comments on the "penalty" I have to say I was expecting something clearer cut than that.  I think that sort of challenge will always come down to the on field refs decision

Im sorry but if you are allowing manures 1st goal last week then this goal stands. What frustrates the most of us is the inconsistent calls. You think that goal would have been disallowed id manure scored it?

Honestly we need to be more vocal about these errors and when i say we as in the players and unai. Ok it didnt cost us today but it could have.  Last week it cost us bad

Can you tell me at which point Hojlund was offside or even as close as it was this week last week then? Watkins was still inside the 6 yard box when 50p got his head to it whilst Holjund was not even in it. There was not even any need to draw lines it was so obvious.

Players protesting against bad decisions could result in bookings, potentially further damaging our already-depleted squad.

I don't see why we can't make a formal complaint as a club. Who knows, we might start getting some apologies from PGMOL, like Brighton did.

Spot on 👍🏻 If somebody is going to make an argument then pick an example that’s at least questionable. Watkins didn’t get out quick enough and played Højlund onside.

Its funny because you are exactly using a example you yourself have said not the one i am mentioning.

Im talking about the player who was offside was not deemed interfering with play for manure NOT hojland like this goal bailey who is off but not interfering with play.

I do hope that clears it up for you why its "questionable"

Well I'm not sure which of the two Manure goals allowed you are talking about as the other one was a pass to McTominay from the wing. (And Watkins is playing everyone on for the first). But it is irrelevant anyway as only you and VillaTim don't get that (and I think he knows, just trolling about it,) the very faint dotted lines coming down from Moreno's shoulder is the line they have used to make the decision, which they have adjudged is offside. Massive arguments could be made on timings etc, but the decision is against Moreno and nothing to do with Bailey.

Think that is right about the penalty.  It was borderline as I don't think it was quite 'clear and obvious' enough that a mistake had been made.  On the flip side, had it been given, I don't think it would have been overturned either.

No real issues with that approach, if it is applied consistently.  The problem's that it is wildly inconsistent, especially when it comes to.certain clubs.
