Hopefully it will be on Sky's highlights. I really want to see a video of it.

EDIT: I just read the post above.

Surely Barnes was offside for our opener. Watched it again earlier. The ball was played forward and he looks at least a yard off.

Pretty sure he was in line with Lopez, so onside regardless of the defenders' positions.

The thing I found funniest was that Barnes rushed out too when he was nowhere near the action.

I can't find a world record anywhere on offsides so....i have emailed Guinness World Records as a bit of fun to see if we can claim it. Lets see what they say.

It was Wolves

See other thread. Definitely on

As much as I love the flair, looked at it a few times tonight and the player it goes to (ward?) is actually one of the deepest derby players, reckon it could have been very very close.

 

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

Some imagination is required in-between frames, as its all a bit juddery...

It's also on the Seagulls Player highlights.

I agree, I think the lino just flagged for the sake of it, one of them must have been interfering with play at some point and he's not going to take stick for making a very brave decision that can't be backed up.

If the Assistant hadn't of flagged there would have been a riot.

 

[Stat Brother]

Even the ref went early.

On average, our opponents are caught offside once every two games.

Is it just me that you follow around hitting with stat facts, or are there others?

I don't mind, it's nice having WikiAcker, just wondering who else has the privilege.

Sorry, don't mean to make you paranoid. I like to post stats that are relevant to discussions all over the place, it was just coincidence that it was a couple of your comments within such a short time.

We've done that late on in a match before, but didn't have 9 of the opposition so high up. Would have been quite funny seeing Kuszczak having to take on 9 Derby players though...

 

[coagulantwolf]

Had it not been offside though, we could have seen one of the 'sweatiest' goals ever (fifa terminology)
