Fulham 1-2 Aston Villa post match pint

[Risso]

Got to be honest I can’t find myself getting too worked up about VAR when we’ve won. If we hadn’t won yes it would be annoying, but it’s a footnote to me.

Both the disallowed goal and the penalty would have made the game a lot more comfortable for us, so I'm still furious as that finl ten minutes aged me 10 years, and I now look old enough to be RCF's son.

Can you see the dotted line right next to the 1 on Moreno?

I have now. If the dotted line is accurate, it looks like by the letter of the law, it is offside. I don't know why they don't just go by where player's feet are though, the game is called football.

Just pleased to get the 3 points with such a "botched" line-up.

How can we be sure of the millisecond of the pass .We don't see dotted lines or such nonsense for that.

Felt more stressful then it needed to - but a good performance and great result particularly with the Spurs result.

Watkins was class - great finishes for both goals.  Tielemans had a good game - but does lack a bit of the engine compared to the rest of the team.  Bailey was great again and I think defence did pretty well.  Great to see Pau back - thought Ramsay is looking more his old self again, but still lacking some of the composer he has when he is at his best.

But overall well done everyone!

Such a big win in the context of our momentum for the rest of the season and the ability to overcome adversity.

Fulham are a wank stain of a football club. 

Are they really?  They're one of those clubs who I always forget are there.  If you asked me to name 50 league clubs I'd probably mention Oldham and Wimbledon before even thinking of Fulham.

Yeah, it's a bizarre statement to make. Maybe he didn't like Wolfie Smith.

FTFY, you cheeky barsteward. I can only think you're confusing me with Percy, god knows how, I'm young, good looking, dress with style without looking like I'm trying too hard and have impeccable taste in music, as everybody will tell you, Percy is the exact opposite.

Good win for Villa I thought the biggest difference was Ollie Watkins, plus your a team going for possible Champions League and a European trophy, were we are trying to get a top half finish for the second season running, I agree what you’ve saving about the referee, if you’re criticising when you’ve won he must been bad!!  I don’t think we played that bad, with a bit more luck we might have sneaked a draw but we came up against a good Villa side, now go on and get in the champions league , we’ll try and help you at Man Utd next week and get some revenge for our last season’s quarter final

Watkins was excellent today. Thank goodness he wasn't injured when he went off for treatment. Would of had his hatrick if it wasn't for that fouling git.

[Somniloquism]

That line seems to be on Morenos arse so what’s the issue?

the red line is on Baileys foot

The red line on the pitch is coincidently on Baileys foot, but is drawn down from Moreno's shoulder, hence the dotted red lines down right next to him.

blow it up and look at the red line and the 6 yard box line , they don't run parallel

So, as with multiple times in the past, you start with one argument until told multiple times you are wrong, then just pivot to a totally different one whilst trying to make it out that was your argument all the time.

As for the angles you think are wrong, you do realise the picture you are complaining about is a photo of a TV screen / Monitor taken by a camera phone from another angle, and of an original picture used by VAR from a camera not directly level with the action anyway. So no way am I using that picture to judge any parallel lines. Unless of course you think the VAR "Checking...." signage is always slanted that way

Very magnanimous. All the best for the rest of the season.

[maidstonevillain]

are they saying Bailey was active so was off ?

The line is off their No. 13. Just so happens it is about level with Bailey.
The little dashed line is then a vertical upto Moreno's elbow, which they are saying is offside.

Still somewhat subjective whether the vertical is in the correct place.

Nice one Franky, enjoy the rest of the season mate.
