[Albion] Premier League 12-13/2/22

[A mex eyecan]

Is anyone else watching Newcastle and getting mightily pissed off with some woman who the mikes keep picking up screeching frantically every time the Geordies go forward?

isn’t she one of the new owners? well, her friggin faces make me want to shriek

 

[Swansman]

Someone like that near where I sit at the amex. she doesn't go so high pitched but she does get very antsy and nervous if our opponents manage to string two passes together, or if an opposition player is less than 20 yards away as the two of our players pass to each other..

Solid at the back, maybe?

 

[Acker79]

Isn't it confusing for the ref that all the newcastle players are wearing number 4?

 

[Timbo]

It's a really weird position to be in for me. Usually want the top 6 to routinely win all their games against the teams at the bottom, hoping the bottom 3 pick up points to drag Leeds, Newcastle, Everton or Palace into trouble or to shorten the the 1000-1 odds that we could catch Spurs or United just seems odd!

Better a screamer than a squirter.
Especially for those sat in front..

Villa equaliser

 

[Weststander]

It was always a pipe dream that they would go down.

Imho near certs for the drop with that defence.

The Saudi takeover changed everything in a moment.

VAR deseprately trying to find a reason to chalk off the Villa goal

Oh, and they've found it

F*cks sake
Millimetres either way. Never 'clear and obvious'
They REALLY want Newcastle to stay up don't they

 

[Acker79]

Watkins looked stunned that he had scored, like he knew it was offside and was surprised it wasn't immediately ruled out. It was eventually, still 1-0.

 

[sdmartin1]

That goal shouldn't be disallowed imho.

Offside is either offside or not, no clear and obvious about it. That said I'm not convinced with the lines that were shown...

Stockley Park are to Newcastle what the Met is to Boris Johnson.

Burn should be sent off.

Not quite right I'm afraid. It should be a clear and obvious mistake for it to be overruled. This was neither.

Offside is checked on an objective basis. There is no subjective clear and obvious consideration.

Not for offside. It is an objective decision (same with in or out side the box for penalties). Clear and obvious only comes into play with subjective decisions. It's why refs don't go to look at the screen to confirm offside decisions.

If you are 'not convinced' (either way) then it's not a clear and obvious error

So let it stand.

So let it stand.

But the lines do convince them.

Yeah you're right looking again at the premier league site. It's an absolute joke.
