  1. Words fail me.
  2. Having read all the points of view I have decided that AV is for people who can't make up their minds about what they want.
  3. And for your second choice?
  4. Indeed, 'tis a concern. All the more reason for us to beat Brentford, then.
  5. Well done Mike. I'll be pleased to donate as soon as you are ready.
  6. At least we shan't have to play each other in the playoffs.
  7. Then you should be quiet in future and perhaps the lino won't hear you?
  8. Along with all the others in the previous 43 games? You are right, though, it's always the events in the last few games that you remember, not the ones last October.
  9. He was also upfield of Guly at the time of the pass.
  10. Then I humbly apologise for my explanation but there are plenty of others who don't know the exact law. It didn't seem to go out to me and I stick by the official who was also on the line. It's only his opinion that counts, after all.
  11. At the time it certainly didn't look like offside but having seen the replay I have to admit that Guly was offside, if only for the split-second when the ball was crossed.
  12. This is a common misunderstanding. The whole of the ball has to be over the whole of the line and from some angles there can be a gap between the line and the ball but when looked at from above there is still a part of the ball that is over the line. The official is in the best position to judge and is a neutral opinion. You couldn't ask for any more.
  13. For them, maybe not, but for us???
  14. Well he held the flag horizontally which just means someone in the middle was offside but he was standing quite a way back from the goal-line, almost level with the penalty spot, if my memory serves me correctly.
  15. I can't understand it either - I didn't even look at the lino. Any chance that Lallana was offside in the build up?
  16. I counted 97 of them just before kick-off, but one of those was a bloke sitting in the front row with a shirt and tie so I presume he was a coach driver, except that I didn't see any away coaches??? Some more wandered in later until there were about 130 -140 of them.
  17. From now on we can effectively be up on any of the next three match days. If only Huddersfield could lose for a change. Their disappointment is only going to be that much greater when they end up in the playoffs. Hopefully.
  18. Ah, but we're not promoted yet.
  19. Or the championship, heaven forbid.
  20. Thanks Baj, much appreciated.
  21. That's the most that we shall need. Just think of the effect that this result will have on Huddersfield. If they drop any points at all then our task becomes easier.
  22. It comes from Star Trek: "to baldly go where no man has gone before" - ask Patrick Stewart.
  23. Had they all got dressed up like a dog's dinner? I'l get my coat....
  24. We now have two games in hand over Huddersfield.
