I don't get why so many struggle with facts, its not opinions on this one. "If the experienced SFA official had deemed it to be a handball then no penalty would have been given as he would then have checked the attacking phase of play and seen that Sima had been offside when Lundstram supplied him" Wrong order... They would say if it was a penalty first then check from there... No point checking the build up if you don't think it's a penalty Bobby Hume 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also wouldn’t have been them that realised it was offside, that would have been sky’s doing. I think we're agreeing that the penalty and the offside are two separate points and that they're scrambling about trying to justify the non-penalty with the offside. Even if it was ultimately the correct decision the way they're going about it is corrupt. If what's posted above about Gollum not thinking it was a handball then that's incompetence at best.

Popular Post Badger 8,819 Posted December 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2023 They made the VAR decision very quickly, faster than offside checks usually happen. The decision was communicated as no penalty. Nobody showed the offside for over 30 minutes after the incident, even Sky were confused by what was happening saying it wasn't mentioned on the feed they have. When they eventually showed the still of the offside, the ball was already travelling from Lundstram (I do think Sima was probably offside regardless). They have made the right decision, but I feel the offside has gotten Collum off the hook for having a fucking howler here - I don't believe that offside was even checked until after the event. That is concerning. Rohan, Negri's lovechild, King Jela and 15 others 18 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointless statement that just makes us look petty. It was offside 30 mins later. At the time the decision was not given as offside, it was given as no penalty. I think the offside is a red herring, they never checked for that at the time. And as others have said, the video-still they used for the offside was after the ball had left Lundstram's foot, which is not the way VAR is supposed to look at these, they need to take it back to the when it was contact. He might have still have been offside but it just looks fucking inept. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geneva_ger 9,451 Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Can anyone please remind me of what the decision was from VAR at the time? I believe they watched the same video as we seen on TV. What did VAR say? Did it reference handball, offside or what? Before the 30 min recall decision for offside.

They referenced a handball check, and it was communicated as the decision given was no penalty. The VAR decision was given in about 20 seconds - that seems very quick to decide if it's a penalty, then check the preceding passages of play, and rule on a (far from clear) offside. On the replay of the incident - From angle 1 (zoomed TV camera angle) the commentators joked "are they checking for a header" as it looked like nothing much to see here. but...... angle 2 (behind goal) the handball was pretty clear. I don't think that any referee looks at angle 2 and doesn't give a penalty - he clearly clawed the ball out of play. My personal thoughts - Collum seen angle 1 and quickly made an incorrect call. They realised he fucked it, and went looking for a justification. I don't believe this decision, whilst ultimately correct, was reached completely honestly. I usually cringe with most of our statements, but I think it's fair that we are asking a question here. I think something stinks, and the offside has let them off the hook.

Even though he is a shocking striker, that 'tackle' by Johnston interfered with Desser's shot (he pulls his leg back to shoot and catches Johnston's leg). If the Desssers at Ibrox is a foul, then Johnston's should have been a foul, which would have been another penalty. cstamomusa, OrangeRab, geneva_ger and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Prso's headband 35,913 Posted December 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2023 It’s also a deliberate handball. Sutton was extremely quick to start the accidental narrative. He moves his hand towards the ball because Sima is in if he doesn’t. The fact Collum has tried to set the narrative himself regarding a phantom offside is the main issue here. It’s the reason why Rangers want the audio, because offside will not once come out of the cheating bastards mouth.

It’s totally deliberate, Johnston had got himself all over the place before he did it. There was a replay that showed you as soon as he punches it out he looks totally deflated for a split second before he turns to appeal for a goal kick because he knows he’s just made a total cunt of it and he’s on a booking Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
