Making it up as they go

They didnt say that surely!?

Yeah that's the "green line" rule of 5cm...... basically defeats the whole semi automated offside technology....

Wirtz and Schade both looked offside to me , even Comms said it looked offside......

It's still all shite.....

Images of the players that don't even match the camera shots when they show the automated image is just as bad ...

Showing and drawing the line from a player's head ( attacker) and a shoulder of the defender , indicating he's onside, when we can all see the attackers foot is ahead of the line,...it's all bollocks...

Apparently it’s been a thing since 2022? And benefit of the doubt always goes with the attacker? That seems a blatant lie when there’s goals disallowed because some tiny part of the arm has been called offside, where was the “tolerance” in those decisions?

I thought they used automatic offside tech now ? Which means they don't draw lines etc??

Been here since 21-22 season, my arse...




Just been on talksport with Foy and the threshold rule ....and the difference to Europe with a chip in the ball that's works to a millimetre So the premier league didn't get this to work with our balls. So invent a bollocks rule.

Loads of goals have been ruled out by toe nails and arm pits . Bollocks ...

Where have they said this ? Just want to show a stupid kopite who is saying it's onside

I dont understand this 5cm thing. Even attacker doesn't get 5cm so are they just saying the system might be 5cm off?

This is exactly why I said VAR-ing offside was a stupid idea. Increasing accuracy will only bring less fair results.

All this also means VAR are re-reffing the game , Lino flagged offside , it wasn't a case of he scored let's see if its legit. Wasn't a clear n obvious error so should have stayed with the on field decision....

West Ham to be relegated tonight then? Can't keep a clean sheet, won't be many in the stadium, Nuno seemingly one foot out the door and Dyche will probably do a job on them.

Win and they're 1 point off. Lose and it's 7. That feels massive.

Maybe one of West Hams new strikers will score a hat trick?

Wait, what’s that? They’re both players represented by Mendes? Just like Nuno? Surely West Ham haven’t been duped into buying shite…

I suppose it worked out in the end for Wolves…

Yeah, massive game for them. The Football Weekly podcast called it another "if we can't win this derby" much like the Wolves/West Ham game, which I thought was a funny term for it.

But yeah, if West Ham can't win this one, it feels like they're really hanging by a thread barring some large well thought out spending in January which seems a taller order for them than this game given their recent recruitment issues.

You would probably fancy Forest here, they really should be clear favourites especially with how West Ham were the other day. However, I'm going to go on a limb and say West Ham get the win here.

Given the amount of money in that Dyche squad then it would be pretty criminal if he can't win here and pull them away.

West Ham look just a mess. Although they've finally dropped £40m (no, honestly, how did that happen?) Max Kilman which should give them a chance.

There have been really poor West Ham displays this season, when Nuno was playing around with the lineups they looked comically bad some games. But I have seen some decent performances at times too, at least going forward, and I kinda always thought Bowen would drag them through. It doesn't help mind you that the atmosphere at the London stadium looks pretty toxic especially compared to Leeds for example. When you're in situations like this you need your home ground to be up for it.

So yeah, they're certainly the favourites of the bunch (Forest, Leeds) to go down but maybe if they can somehow get a result tonight and maybe sign a CB/DM to sure them up a bit more they could yet have a chance if the gap isn't too big. Lots of maybes there.

This should be a relatively easy job for Dyche as you say, but I was surprised how poor they were against us.

Loser gets sacked imo
