After many hours....no days of self torture

[Guest Snorky]

Garcia's goal WAS over the line.

There's an almost ultra satisfying pleasure in wishing it wasn't...

[Guest PaulMcC]

Was there not video evidence to prove it was over.

[JohnnyH]

Garcia's goal WAS over the line.

 

No no no. Next you'll be saying it wasn't a penalty on Saturday.

 

Where's the fun in that?

Andy Gray proved it wasn't over the line, by conclusively showing where the ball probably was

[Gunga Din]

it wasnt over the line, what was over the line was the players white boot (was it Gallas) when he was clearing it. i'm convinced it was the white boots that the linesman took as the ball.

[Guest PaulMcC]

Just found this.

Don't tell Mourinho that.

Nah, you can see Gallas's standing foot on the line, the other leg is extended into the goal to clear it. Even allowing for him leaning back it's obviously over.

Further proof ponces frmo the opposition team should always wear white boots.

The scoreboard said Liverpool 1-0 Chelsea

 

So it was over

That's hilarious Kev, I just watched the first 20 minutes of that game again last night as I was eating some Indian food before bed. And for the first time I too genuinely thought it was over the line.

 

And by the way, for those who haven't seen it 381 times, it's just as satisfying each time.

Today Kev is mostly being Jose Mourinho and I claim my £5.

[Spion kop]

fine send the keeper off and give us a penalty happy days.

That's just wishful thinking on your part.

[Flasher]

What convinces me it was over are the following two things.

 

1. The momentum of the ball (clearly moving towards the goal, not sideways)

2. Watch where the ball bounces after Garcia's touch. (Practically on the goal line before continuing some distance forward).

 

GOAL. End of.

Maybe you could announce it over the tannoy on sunday just before half time?

They proved it based on the stance of the player who was trying to clear it off the line - Gallas, was it?

What he said

[Knox_Harrington]

It looked well over the line from where I was, lower Kemlyn (Row six), Kop end, in line with the penalty spot. Probably similar to the linesman.

Don't bring Rugby logic into this- Matty will just upset.

[surf]

we didn't get the away goal

[Tosh]

after that performance tonight, that "goal" really seems like a lifetime ago
