Never changed my mind once and if you read all my posts and quote them (which you won't as it doesn't suit your negative argument) you will find I have quoted on complete different scenarios, something you obviously missed :D:

The clue dear boy is highlighted.

 

The tie was decided.

 

We lost the tie. Derby won.

 

Can you seriously say we drew the play-off semi-final... no.

 

Did England lose to Argentina and Portugal, yes, yes a million times yes.

 

Did we beat Norwich, yes, yes, yes.

 

We are through. We won. I can't concieve that people are even debating this... the rules say the WINNER will be decided by penalties.

 

Only bookies dispute these things, I wonder why.....

With so few wins in the past 5 years, I'll take a penalty shoot out as a win.

 

Who are the current world football champions, because Italy only drew in normal time? Does that make Italy the world penalty champions?

 

Technically with your arguments you could win the FA cup without winning a single game?

The match is over when the final whistle blows. All the rest is for statisticians to argue over.

 

Considering the ref only gave two peeps on his whistle after 93 minutes and a full three blasts after Thomas slotted his penalty home, I assume you mean we won then ;)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

-ok, better now.

I just happened to be reading through the 'Laws of the Game' and I came across this definition.

 

'The team scoring the greater number of goals during a match is the winner. If both teams score an equal number of goals, or if no goals are scored, the match is drawn.'

... immediately followed by this:

When competition rules require there to be a winning team after a match or home-and-away tie, the only permitted procedures for determining the winning team are those approved by the International F.A. Board, namely:

• away goals rule

• extra time

• kicks from the penalty mark

Exactly, for determining the WINNING team.

Realistically last night was a draw. However we won the tie, as the tie includes penalties.

 

You COULD say tha Papa scored a hattrick last night...

There can't be a poll on this anyway,

 

A poll is a guide of opinions, in this case , the answer is not an opinion but a fact.

 

Draw is the answer.

Draw is the answer.

 

The result of 90 minutes was a tie.

 

To determine the WINNER of the tie, penalties ensued.

 

Therefore, when asked: "who won last night?" - the correct answer is Southampton won the tie.

 

The tie was not drawn or there would be a replay.

 

Whereas, I have it on good authority from my mate who sells Johnstone's Paint (and to be fair also Dulux and Crown, and that expensive stuff for stately homes) that we are in the Area Final.

 

Did anyone genuinely get home at midnight and when asked by their missus: "Who won?" actually reply: "No-one, it was a draw".

 

And if they say yes, they are liars because noone that stupid could get married unless to Jordan and she was married to Peter Andre until very recently.

We drew the game, we won the tie. The tie was basically two legs, with one match, and one penalty shoot-out.

 

Taking Einstein's Theory of Relativity into account, and introducing it with Professor Stephen Hawking's work on black holes, I can categorically state that I am bored with this debate. :-)

LOL. Talk about take the bait*.

 

No-one apart from the windup merchants on this forum think it was a draw and no-one apart from the windup merchants are making out they are sat in the pub saying we didn't win. So lawd knows why you and others feel the need to spout this obviousness.

 

But the technical answer is the match last night finished in a draw and the tie was decided on penalties. That's why the final score wasn't 9-7 and the goals Lambert and all the other penalty scorers won't count in their tally for the season. Because the match finished 2-2. It's on the official site, and the BBC and, well, everysoddingwhere. 2-2.

 

But for the obvious brigade, we won last night. Thanks for telling us. Over and over again, in different shades of the blinkin obvious.

 

Please, can people get over it.
