Man City v Liverpool

Recommended Posts

I hasten to add, I’m not against tech being used, especially to clarify glaring errors, but I just found that very harsh.

We’d be raging if that went against us in a top of the table clash.

It would be without a doubt

You found it harsh that the referee adhered to the rule?

Great game this - Liverpool gotta open up, now

They’ll have to stop chasing shadows in the second half.

Could be a great second half.

It's not harsh as the ball didn't go in. I'm with you on this Phil, tech helps the rules be applied correctly and people think it's harsh. The mind boggles.

But it’s not a goal though? Yeah you’d be disappointed from a fans perspective but ultimately it’s the correct decision.

If I could see the ball hadn't crossed the line as we can see it hasn't why would I be raging

No...I find it harsh that so much of the ball can be in the goal and it’s not a goal.

Unfortunately, I’ll have to repeat myself...if that had gone against us, we’d be raging.

I always find the "What if it went against us" argument to be baffling.

 

If someone showed me conclusive evidence (i.e. the goal line technology) that we didn't score a goal, I don't think I'd be able to feel hard done by.

You might be but I and many others wouldn't. It wasn't a goal, that's the rules of the game ??

I’m not saying it’s a wrong decision, I’m not saying the tech is wrong.

Doesn’t mean I have to like it. As said previously....on the touch line, that gets a throw in, every time.

If Hearts conceded a goal to a ball that wasn't over the line, I'd be a **** ton more pissed off than I would be if we weren't awarded a goal because the whole ball didn't cross the line.

 

"Aye well, it was nearly in" doesn't cut it.

Then maybe football isn't for you. A goal is scored when the whole ball crosses the line, it's a fundamental of the game.

 

Just because the linesmen often get it wrong is somewhat inconsequential.

Why are you arguing against a fact. It's not an opinion, of which there are many to argue for and against. It's a stone cold fact! Exactly what technology should be used for. No goal!

I must like a different type of football from most on here, I've found this game, along with most EPL games I've watched to be boring, tactical pish interspersed with the odd moment of brilliance that often produces a goal. 66% of the passes in this game have been between the defenders and the goalkeepers.

Honestly it bores me rigid.

Give me the blood, tears and snotters of our game any time

Maybe the Derby should've finished 1-1 on Saturday, since Whittakers shot nearly crossed the line.

That’s hardly inconsequential...it’s a fundamental of the game.

Brighton Jambo

Vincent Kompany should have seen red.  Ref bottled it as he didn’t want to be the guy who gets all the headlines tomorrow.  Any other game in EPL that is a red card all day long.

How accurate is the goal line technology!? In the replays it looked to be over but the tech says differently! 

 

Does it ever get it wrong!? Just wondering.

This is typical of ‘technology’, as applied by the IT crowd

 

Prior to the system coming in, everyone believed that ‘ over the line’  meant that the centre of the ball was over the far edge of the line.

 

now some dipshit programmer comes in and says otherwise .......

It's inconsequential as to whether the rule should be "nearly in is enough". Just because the rule is applied wrongly in some instances doesn't mean it's therefore a travesty when applied correctly.

So it’s ok sometimes but not others...fair enough

No they didn't. I've never met anyone who thought that. This thread is the only place I've ever encountered people arguing a "more in than out" perspective.

Is it?

 

I didn't say that so you tell me. What I said is that just because linesmen get it wrong at throw ins and corners that is not a reason to award goals incorrectly. One error is inconsequential to the other. You are effectively arguing that it's better to get all the decisions wrong.

VAR next please 

Please no!!! You voice an opinion on here, and you either need a lawyer, or a set of ear plugs.

Only folk who didn't know the rules would think this. 

 

Have you just started watching football recently? It's always been the whole ball, long before technology and long before folk talked shit on the internet!

It's one of the first things you learn, isn't it? The whole ball must cross the line. Was probably the first rule I learned after "You can't handle the ball". Christ, we had an umpteen page thread ripping the piss out of Griffiths' "goal" about it.

That's just not true, the rule's been clear as day for as long as I can remember

 

I'm with the poster above who thinks English football is shit boring by the way
