Man city 1-0 up at newcastle already

 

cant see anyone else winning the league than them. Just so powerful all over the park

newcastle, despite being on a very very good run are well within our sights

This season refereeing has plumbed new depths.

 

been saying for ages. every week there is an absolute howler

still not seen another penalty given like we had against us v arsenal

 

but that just now in newcastle was disgusting

Posted
Yeah, I fully expect it'll be between City and Chelsea, said that at the start of the season. They seem to have sorted out their away form.

 

Great insight mate ;)

 

Newcastle goal ruled out, not sure why!?

100% correct decision. Gouffran is involved in the play. If he doesn´t move ball hits him and dont end up in goal, therefore he IS involved in the situation.

That is not the Offside rule as it stands... its a clear goal.

Otherwise we can claim that Aguerro goal against us should have been ruled out... Negredo had to move quickly to avoid it..

Maybe the ref was wrong then rather than now.

Mark Halsey says right call. 'Moving towards the ball or interfering with an opponent - off side'

If a player has to move out of the way of a ball once it's kicked - surely that's interfering with play????

 

Not at all, not impeding an opponent nor gaining an advantage. According to the modern version of the law the goal should have stood.

Gouffran did neither, quite the opposite. To whom was Halsey referring?

So you dont think its an advantage that the ball ends up in net because of his movement?

 

I think so honestly.

Gouffran got out of the way of the ball. If it had struck him then I would agree with you. In what way did his movement help the ball end up in the net? Hart wasn't distracted and had no chance of getting to the ball.

IMO he gaines an advantage by moving out of the balls way. And thats why players in offside position cant let the ball go through their legs to an onside teammate and claim they didn´t play it.

 

But it is a matter of opinions, agree about that. And the big problem is the rules that allows individual interpretations of it...

Wow did he try to make up for his howler. How Cabaye stayed on the pitch I don't know...a booking followed by and other two bookable offenses in quick succession and got away with a stern finger wagging. The late challenge on Nasri was worth a sending off...all in all a stunningly inept refereeing performance.

Hart could well have assumed Gouffran was going to touch it and therefore Hart didn't dive for it. Who knows in less than a split second?

We are due a few bad decisions from refs imho

 

Im a believer that things even out over a season and as it stands we are 4-5 decisions up

 

You got a breakdown of those stats me ol' mucker? Much obliged

We shall never know, of course. Hart doesn't make anything of it at the time. The guidance from FIFA is:

 

“interfering with an opponent” means preventing an opponent from

playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or movements or making a gesture or movement which, in the opinion of the referee, deceives or distracts an opponent.

 

It must have been the referee's decision although why we needed to go to his assistant I don't know.

Foul on the Burnley keeper before our 3rd

Foul on WBA player in build up to our goal yesterday

 

Think we have largely been lucky with decisions this season and seem to win majority of the 50/50's..... Good job too. Look at the stink after the Everton 'handball'

More tragically than that, it's just a hobby. What an idiot!

Yes those 2 evens out everything...

 

All the wrestling John O´Shea was allowed to do.

The blatant handball against Norwich. (And dont say anything about Norwichs penalty in the last seconds cause if the first one is given that never happens cause it only happened because we were desperately chasing in the final minutes)

The offside for Man Uniteds goal.

The handball (not 'handball', just simply handball) at Everton.

 

And that´s just a few of those we can discuss....

 

Btw, which player fouled which yesterday in the run up for our goal?

Something 5 minutes before the actual goal?
