Well to me it looked like Andone was trying to swivel on the ball but missed it and caught his man. Seemed like a complete accident, although still a red card no question.
I think in general our passing and possession play and movement has been first class at times. Some beautiful football. Add that to how we played Vs WestHam and Watford, and I'm pretty delighted, regardless of the odd mistake/bad luck etc.
Just hope we can keep on top of this game in the second half and get the 3 points I would say we very much deserve.

If it was possible to be offside direct from a corner, every team would defend by wandering up towards the half way line; any forward then attacking the corner would be offside. There would be no point having a corner, because the only outcomes would be 1). the 'keeper collecting the ball or 2) a free kick for offside to the defending team.
By definition, the ball is passed back from a corner kick. Ifs the corner goes straight to Dunk, he is not offside; if he heads it on to Duffy, Duffy potentially can be.

That all may be true (I assume you’re watching on a stream?) but it’s part of football and a bit of fun. If JWP makes another foul the crowd have a part to play - and must give Friend as much stock as possible in the hope he’ll favour us - that’s football. It’s a bit of fun not embarrassing.

This.
VAR disallowed goal, gives Andone a grateful distraction from his dickhead selfish assault.

No that is what was reported but it was clearly Burn. Look at the game on iPlayer (1:19:21 to be exact). Burn is two yards deeper than Dunk, probably to compensate for his lack of mobility.
I’ve been a big Andone fan and pushed him to start since he’s joined but that was just pathetic. What an opportunity for him today and he’s just thrown it away, long time before he gets another chance now.

Forget the drama of the first half. ..let's settle this with positive attacking second half

A point now has to be a good result. A shame, if we get more then superb.

Rubbish - 3) they take the corner trying to pick out an ‘attacker in their own half’ but the ‘defending team’ (all in their offensive half) latch onto it and score!

I'll be honest I was just angry about it being disallowed. I'm sure it was an offside, but in my defence, the VAR doesn't translate quite as well in the audio commentary.

Watch it again, please. He took a bit touch, has a rush of blood in frustration, went over the top with studs up with an angry “I’m gonna do him here” expression on his face, and planted his studs hard and over the ball into Valery’s shin. The most blatant red since Knockaert launched himself two footed at the Cardiff player. (Some on here tried to claim with a straight face that he slipped)

I don't know where to start with that first half.
I guess I should start with Andone. WTF was he doing?! Awful tackle.
I'm done with VAR. It's shit. Or maybe it's not shit, maybe it's just highlighting how shit the rules are. We get a goal disallowed because the saints keeper is a fanny and can't stand up?!
I enjoyed the first 30 minutes of the half, we played some good, positive, high paced football. The last 15 minutes I was getting more and more pissed off thanks to Andone and VAR. The second half will teach us a lot about Potter. How will we set up, what will we change to get through another 45 minutes with a man down. Will we go defensive or will we still go out attacking?
I really, really hope we don't lose to a spawny southampton team who were second best 11v 11 and needed a dodgy decision to keep them level at half time.

Winning this would be amazing, but I'm no longer very optimistic. We've had one of the most forgiving starts, and even after City our next two look ok, so we could do with getting some points on the board
They now have the option to abdicate this
That's what they're doing, and that's why it's so crap. If the lino had flagged, no-one would have celebrated - and then it would have passed by in a flash. Instead of all this nonsense we have now.

That's one of the main problems with VAR IMO, you should have confidence the original decision is correct.
