The law is it should be judged when the touch/pass 'starts'.
(Which could be open to interpretation and exploitation tbf)
I'd like to see the lines put on when the ball leaves O'Hares foot, as it's a scooped pass and his foot is still in contact with the ball until it's about a foot off the ground
That really is a stupid rule .The law is it should be judged when the touch/pass 'starts'.

The mindset has changed, I sat in tier two for the last two Wembley visits and you get a good view but are a long way back so I was thinking “next time I will get block one at the front” then realised we are Coventry and never know when we will go again
It’s only touch not passThe law is it should be judged when the touch/pass 'starts'.

It’s not the law but it is how var works as it is mostly advantageous to the attackerThat really is a stupid rule .
Many haveNo but they have trained as referees. They aren’t just three random accountants we found at Euston on a Friday.
It’s only touch not pass
You can read it that way and it’s certainly how var see itPass is covered under 'touch' though.
After seeing that I’m even more convinced that it should be got rid of.What a mess. Surely it wasn't the intention to use VAR in this manner.
That's like someone trying to teach linear algebra.
Painful. And absolutely nuts.
On their PlayStations they have.They have never played football
The ice breaker back in the day to a non-Cov fan was always 'Yeah I remember you lot in the Premier League' or 'What's going on with your ground?'Another Cov top related story;
Wearing my Cov top round the pool and a Liverpool fan clocked it. He mentioned this game and said we were robbed. Never offside etc.
I know we all know that, but a) I think it’s universally recognised we were and b) made me realise I’m still disappointed we missed out on another Wembley trip!!
Also goes to show it helped the profile of the club.
I get that often when I bring up I'm a Cov fan, it doesn't make it any easier! I don't want to be reminded of it.Another Cov top related story;

You;ll always have Teignmouth, though. Every cloudI don't think i will ever get over this
We won that game fair and square and watching Man City in the final we'd have given them a good game too
I had same in summer from a Plymouth and a Chelsea fan.Another Cov top related story;

What a strange feeling this thread and match gives you, joy and despair.
He was onDo people really still think it was onside?
It was off, the argument you should be having is was it off be enough to justify VAR involvement but in the current system where the question is a binary onside or offside the call was right.

Had 5 of my grandsons with me. Hope they all remember it when I have pegged itGot to spend it with my son and my mates, worth more than anything. As he grows up (24 now) City games are mostly what tie us together now
Yes, you can argue that the rules should be changed to give more leeway to the attacking team, but that's a different matter. I confirmed in a series of photos I posted at the time that it was offside under the rules as they stand. I don't get why people are carrying this lifelong burden that we were robbed. Frustrating and incredibly unlucky, but no robbery involved.Do people really still think it was onside?

Don't do this to yourselfDo people really still think it was off?
The naivety in thinking that the lines are drawn in the right place at the right time
Not saying it was corrupt but if it had been given the other way no one would have known the difference
