[Albion] What an arse

[El Presidente]

I thought this was going to be a thread about Kylie

 

[Eeyore]

A hole in their defence ?

They also scored at the arse end of the game.

To quote Python- His name is 'Inthenetia Buttocks'

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Yes, it took ages to get to the bottom of this.

Whilst I prefer to stay humble and respectful I couldn’t help but glut when the decision went our way.

Have always said like Tennis and cricket off sides should be based on foot position and this photo shows how easier it would be if this was so

 

[Madafwo]

I guess that's what Bournemouth get for having Arabella Weir in their side.

I'm inclined to agree. Mitomas incline could easily have put his armpit offside on another day. Stick to feet I say.

It took an eternity for VAR to cheek if it was offside or not.

yes, they were trying to see if there was a crack in their defence

 

[peterward]

I honestly thought it was offside first. Seemed like a bit of a bum rap for Bournemouth.

You've got a cheek

From the real-time footage on the TV, Mitoma was out of frame. So when JP first played that pass, my first thought was "who the f**k was that to?". Followed by "whoa, who's that? Where the f**k did he come from?". Then "is that Mitoma?" And then " holy crap! We scored!"

It literally seemed like he'd come out of nowhere.

I sphinc you’re right.

The second half had only just started as well, early back doors.

 

[Albion my Albion]

Good thing Mitoma doesn't have hair like Cucurella.

 

[Fungus]

The vision and perfect weight on that pass by JP to completely dissect their defence was just pure FILTH. That pic captures it perfectly.

Yes, I watched the replay on TV many times, but couldn’t work out the path of the ball through the defenders. It looked diagonal, but that pic makes sense of it.

 

[Javeaseagull]

What a ridiculous situation we have got ourselves into. Minutely examining whether someones pubes are offside when the player is not even in the Penalty box. The time wasted to examine something that could in no way be decrilbed as goal haninging. The VAR system is bollox but it makes money so we are stuck with it. It’s still bollox because it has not stopped discussion it has generated more. No problem with that but it holds up the game unnecessarily.

So if Mitoma had been leaning forward a little more a brilliant goal could have been chalked off - his feet are miles onside. The offside law is an ass .

 

[Weststander]

Wouldn't want Igor as the last defender in that scenario.

 

[smillie's garden]

VAR made a booty call.

Yes, if they changed the offside law so it was only the position of player's feet which determined offside, then it would be much more straightforward to judge and also much more in keeping with the intent of the offside law.......
