Kanes dribble was offside

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
I disagree that we have had more questionable decisions go our way. We had two good goals chalked off against Forest and Chelsea. We benefited from Scamacca’s goal v Fulham and Zouma’s goal v Bournemouth.

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
VAR and the way we use it doesn’t help and the referees don’t do themselves stay favours.

If the spurs goal was given there would have been no arguments.

VAR should only be used for the clear and obvious 2 yard offsides etc.

The trouble is and as I have said loads of times the camera is never in line. We should use an althletics style camera that tracks last defender and runs along a rail (like 100 m camera)

The marginal foul decisions haven’t been helped as it has become opinion of the ref and also now the person in the studio

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Duke… we’ve deffo had more go for us this season than not… yup swings and roundabouts and all that and maybe in previous seasons we’ve been on the other side of the decision but so far it’s deffo been our season for the 50/50 calls… been a lot of head scratching for sure and for me VAR is not getting better… been how many years now?? Any other sport not a problem … Rugby… Cricket.. American Football etc …technology helps… and yet with football the biggest game in the world… it’s a laughable shitshow..

Iron Duke 11:20 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
As funny as it was, that was a ridiculous decision. Drawing lines and pausing and rewinding for 5 minutes is not what the game needs.

We’ve had a couple of decisions go our way recently. I wouldn’t call that loads.

Northern Sold 11:14 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
All I know is if that went against us we’d be on absolute meltdown on here… something is not right about football at the moment and just because a. we’ve had a load go for us recently and b. It stuffed the bagels out does not plaster over the cracks that football I think is completely fucked…

I've never enjoyed watching Champions League highlights as much as I did this morning, VAR rules!

Sven Roeder 9:25 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Disappointed I didnt watch this last night as love it when Jenas has a cry when things go against them.

Had a look at an analysis ...
Kane ahead of the ball ... CHECK
Deflection wasnt a deliberate play of the ball so didnt reset Kane's offside status .... CHECK
Correct call, end of story

Cunte's reaction is way over the top and this abuse of referees is unacceptable.
Should be a major fine and a season long stadium ban which requires him to report to a police station in Sunderland an hour before every Tottenham game before being released two hours after the game finishes.

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
It doesn’t matter which direction the ball is played. He isn’t behind the ball, albeit marginal. You’d be annoyed if it went against you but we’ve all had close calls go against us.

IIf used correctly, its one of the few VAR calls that is black or white. So their wiggy manager made a bit of an idiot of himself just because his pride was hurt after his wild over-celebration.

As for Jenas, hilarious. Thought he was going to cry. If thats up the other end, he’s demanding it gets disallowed. Worst co-commentator in this business alongside Hinchcliffe.

Stubbo 8:13 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Isn't the rule that if the ball is played from beyond the last man (essentially meaning the offside trap has already been beaten) then the player receiving it can't be offside.

If the ball is played and there is still a defender nearer the goal than the place from where the ball is played then the standard offside stipulations apply.

Nothing to do with it being played backwards or not.

Manuel 5:42 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Well that was funny since it was that lot, but fuck me what a load of shit VAR is. Was it offside? Wouldn't have a clue, and I highly doubt anyone does, same as the handball rule. Load of old shit.

Brucies_Star_Prize 2:12 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
I also thought a player couldn't be offside if the ball was played backwards, however nowhere in the laws of the game is this stipulated: https://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-11---offside

99% of the time a ball played backwards will be to someone who is behind the ball, but not in this case. As far as I can see the decision was correct, albeit an extremely tight call.

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Gilmore is correct...
No goal...

Pedro 1:28 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Gilmore

Kane is behind the ball and player aswell. Shocker of a decision. Funny though.

Incorrect, if the player receiving the ball is in front when the pass is made, he is offside, regardless of deflection.

Pedro 12:58 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
In Portugal so watching watching with the Lisbon fans. Very funny but that is a shocking decision. Can’t be offside if ball goes backwards. Offside rule since 1257!

Hermit Road 12:11 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
I had a few quid on them when they went behind. There’s not many better ways to lose a bet.

Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Cunte is a horrible character

Loved seeing him racing down the line celebrating only for a VAR and a red card for him. even if the goal being cancelled costs me a decision win on over 2.5 goals

Charoo 12:06 Thu Oct 27
Re: VAR - What is it good for?
Just nearly woke the kids up shouting with joy at that VAR decision. You love to see it. I don’t like to take pleasure from other peoples sorrow but when it’s Spurs that sentiment goes out the window.

Tremendous scenes in N17, fantastic to watch.
