Unlucky Dunk!

Now into the 9th of the 7 additional minutes

Appalling 'football' from SU, just a bunch of cheating ****s, no other word for it.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Well I think Sheffield U have something to feel a bit hard done by there.

The bloke who put the ball in the net must have been a good yard offside, apart from anything else!

Well Buonanotte’s touch has to be intentional for the offside not to stand. That and the handball and I think otherwise a good goal

 

[Hendrax]

The way mitoma just controlled that ball in our area and got it out of danger. Sublime touch.

 

[BevBHA]

Thought their goal should've stood.

The final ball ricocheted off buanonotte so not offside surely? No foul either. Just shite defending.

The rule says it has to be a ‘deliberate action’ which it wasn’t. So the ref got it right, it’s the rule that’s the problem I’m not sure why they ever changed it to that

 

[BBassic]

Their player faking injury there, tit

It wasn't a deliberate action from buannonotte so not offside. Been like that for decades.

 

[Bodian]

So - what is Wilder going to say about that play-acting by McAtee??!

 

[B-right-on]

One for the team by T

It's been like that for decades

 

[Zeberdi]

Not illegally-

Thought it came off a sheff arm didnt it?

VAR were looking at the possible offside in the build up - a very marginal call that went in our favour.

Sometimes playing 10 men can be harder than playing 11 - tight and very low blocks by very frustrated players. The team with 11 players get lulled into a false sense of security and lose concentration very easily making them vulnerable to smash and grab breaks

Its all going to end up with handbags.

 

[London Irish]

Hmmm not great we wanted the half time whistle

 

[WhingForPresident]

So how is this Souza prick not in the book?

 

[macbeth]

just need to calm down here. need to maintain control

 

[brighton_tom]

Sheff player trying to get one of ours sent off their. Punching the pitch in pain one second, jumps up absolutely fine when the ball then comes near him.

 

[Reddleman]

That’s a really poor performance. I hope RDZ rips into them. This game should be out of site and somehow they are still in with half a chance.

 

[Bridcutt]

They really are just a dirty team, grim fans and a shite manager

 

[BevBHA]

Really? I thought previously if it came off an opposing player and changed the general direction of the ball it wasn’t offside
