Did you think VAR would rob us of the first goal and thus not celebrate "properly"?

No VAR review = spontaneous continued celebration?

Am I being whooshed? šŸ˜ƒ
But he didnā€™t know about VAR until a bit after, he looked over to the linesman as he thought he was off I think

We were in line with it and it looked off, so much so that everyone around me said the same. We were convinced it would be chalked off.
Seeing it on motd, it wasn't even close to being offside so I'm not sure why the incompetent thickos took so long.

Thought it was offside from my viewing angle so didnā€™t even get out of my seat.

Yes. It was obviously going to be close - Undav's reaction told us that much - so I held myself back.

The VAR review took so long that by the time they'd decided it was a valid goal, I was kinda over the whole thing.

Thankfully, and not many may have picked up on this, we scored FIVE MORE GOALS, and I was able to go batshit crazy over each of those.

No, I just muted Johnny and Warren and briefly nipped over to SSN, where we'd already kicked off again!

I didnā€™t celebrate at all - I was convinced he was off and VAR would rule it out. I havenā€™t seen a replay of the goal - was it the right decision or did they they take pity on us and give this one the benefit of the doubt ?

But we all did though, thatā€™s my point, itā€™s sucking the enjoyment out of football for the fans.

It was clearly going to be reviewedā€¦

Yes - I also muted my celebrations when @Bold Seagull tracked me down during halftime.

But he got to see my phenomenal hair so at least one customer left the AMEX happy yesterday.
Haircuts like that win matches.

Stat Jnr just didnā€™t seem to get the idea of not getting carried away 2nd half though - few more years will learn him.

The poor child hasn't got a clue!


Of course they win matches, despite being a couple of mm's too long, my pelt is just hanging onto it effortlessly phenomenal aura.



(Imagine what those who think this is some kind of double bluff are missing out on)

Yes. It was right in line with me and we were all convinced he was actually offside. As did Deniz. Yet on the tele, he was clearly on. What do we know, hey.

Wasnā€™t even that tight really, no idea why it took so long.
The cynic in me suggested VAR would chalk off GroƟ second because it was unfair to Wolves.

Nope. Shouted and punched the air etc as always.

Don't care if I look like a bellend when it then gets disallowed. Most nearby probably assume the guy in front was blocking my view.

And at least I get a buzz before the eventual disappointment. I really do hate VAR.

Thankfully for a change I got to celebrate this one twice :clap: :clap:

Yes but to be honest, it was because I saw Undav looking across and not celebrating or looking sure, so I thought it must be offside as often the players know.
This.

I started celebrating but as the players seemed so muted I was convinced the Lino has raised his flag already.

I didn't celebrate. I heartily sang f*** VAR for the interminable wait that followed
