The Over the line debate .

Think that's the gist of it TT. We know we did so it's just a laugh we got away with it because we normally feel we end up with the shittiest end of the stick.

Maybe if their fella leathers it in then it's not left to chance. And maybe if they do more on goal in that second half in total then it's just a footnote for them in a game they managed to turn around.

Dan Grimshaw did the absolute best he could with it for his part. 9.99 times out of 10 the buzzer goes off now and you're just beaten but great reactions nonetheless.

so i was not in The White Rose room after the game whilst the host interviewed the ex player Nathan Clarke and the young lad who they signed from Wimbledon who played in the middle of the park? or to see the two young kids win a bottle of Prosecco...., ok.
 
Anyone remember a similar incident which went against us during Alardyce days.
Mel Cappleton saved on the line and the goal was awarded denying us victory.
Video replay proved it never crossed the line. It was against Huddersfield and they owe us one . Plus the Gabrielle sending off cost us last season

Deceptive from that angle as the goal line is not visible.
If you draw an imaginary line from the bottom of the ball to where you think the goal line is it's unlikely that the WHOLE of the ball would be over.
There was goal line technology involved and it did not bleep the refs watch.
That picture does not prove conclusively that the whole ball was over the line imo.
 
The ball was always in the air. As such, stills don't definitively prove the ball was over the line. Watching the extended highlights this morning, the view from behind the goal still makes me think a fraction of the ball wasn't over the line. Grimshaw juggles it and then holds it out.

The lad was shooting from a very tight angle, giving Grimshaw the opportunity to block as it comes back across.

Of course it does. The fact that it's not visible almost proves it. That photo was taken from behind the goal line. The goal line comes from the base of the post. You can just about see it to the bottom left of the picture. The fact you can't clearly see it proves the position it's taken from. The goalpost is vertical, so the picture isn't skewed.

Impossible to confirm anything from that photo I'm afraid.

The goalpost is leaning to the right, you can tell by the netting on the left that isn’t straight from top to bottom.

That would make the ball also appear further to the right. Skewed.
 
nowt conclusive there. second photo ball is in the air, photo is from in front of goal so it APPEARS to be over the line but it's not 100% conclusive. Third photo it's about the arc of the ball. It only needs 1 millimetre of that arc to be not over the line to say it's not a goal. So no conclusive evidence provided to say it was a goal. On the other hand, goal line technology was in in play which uses the correct angles to show the ball is over the line. The refs watch didn't bleep so it's a 100% fact that the ball did not fully cross the line.
 
The first and third pictures are blurred beyond recognition. You can't tell anything from them. The middle picture,(the clearest), shows the ball directly above the goal line. Unless you are level with the goal line, with a clear view of line and ball, it's impossible to say where the ball is in relation to the line.

Dodgy angle / photo...It's impossible to tell

I agree. You cannot tell whether it's over the line from that angle. On the extended highlights on TTV you get a replay from behind that shows it didn't cross the line.

The main thing is though that the goal-line technology says it wasn't a goal, so it wasn't a goal. You can't have it both ways, just like with VAR. The rule is that we accept the technology, and that's it.
 
You really are all completely deluded. You'd argue black is white for the sake of an argument. The pics are blurred because they're freeze frames from videos.
All this proves is that some people on this forum are so obstinate and stubborn that you can't have a reasonable conversation. Either that or thiock as pig-shit.

I'm done with all of it. Enjoy your in-fighting.
 
Surely if it was over the line (🤣) ..Huddersfield should get a retrospective fine for their goal line technology not working..? 😎
 
If they’ve tested it since( and why wouldn’t they) they’re keeping the result quiet.

It’s you who’s arguing Black is White TT… We are just agreeing with the decision and the excellent technology.

You’re trying to dispute the obvious, with some extremely dubious information.

What’s all the dispute about? We got the points didn’t we? 176 on this thread most trying to give Huddersfield a point. We won they lost, as another poster said, shit happens move on. I bet the Udders board has got this many complaining about this decision.

This from Lancs Live this morning. The most important thing is the last sentance!

The EFL have confirmed there was a goal line technology failure during Blackpool's win at Huddersfield.

The Seasiders picked up all three points at the John Smith's Stadium after Theo Corbeanu's first half goal but the controversy came in the second half. Huddersfield defender Yuta Nakayama looked to have placed the ball across the line at the second attempt after Dan Grimshaw's initial save, but Grimshaw collected the ball and played on.

Without a signal to the referee's watch during the incident, official John Busby resumed play amid strong claims from Huddersfield players that they had seen the ball cross the line. This is another instance of Hawk-Eye goal line technology failing after a memorable incident in 2020 where Sheffield United were denied a winner away at Aston Villa after a technology failure.

The EFL have released a statement confirming that, after discussions with Hawk-Eye, there was a failure: "The EFL is incredibly frustrated that a technology failure at Huddersfield Town and Blackpool has overshadowed a fantastic weekend of action on the pitch.

"We have now received an initial assessment from Hawk-Eye, the providers of the Goal Line Technology service in the Championship, that during a second-half incident with Huddersfield attacking, the match officials did not receive a signal to their watch or earpiece as, due to multiple factors, the ball was no longer being tracked following it entering the Blackpool goal area.

"Separately, PGMOL have confirmed officials were unsighted due to obstruction by players and therefore unable to award a goal. Whilst the system was tested and functional prior to the start of the game, further information is expected from both Hawk-Eye and PGMOL following a full review of the incident.

"Technology is there to support the decision-making processes of match officials in the Championship and it failing in such a manner on Sunday is a matter of great concern. For clarity, the referee’s decision is final and the match result stands."

It's probably polite for multiple fuck ups.

My mate went to Istanbul for the Champ league final with Liverpool fans. They were on the plane singing "it never crossed the line and we're going to Istanbul, ISTANbul, Istanbul! Dodgy semi final goal against Chelsea. These things enter folklore.

After last year
Must be karma!

As far as I'm concerned, the ball probably went over the line, but it's tough for Huddersfield. What about our goal, unbelievably given offside against QPR last season? The EFL made a song and dance about 'Little Blackpool' getting a dodgy decision in our favour but there was no enquiry last season. Over the years, we get next to nothing from them, or the refs.
Look at our season in the 'ELITE Premiership.' If VAR was in place then, I think we would have had at least ten extra points. I could stack up quite a few incidents that ballsed us up.
RANT OVER..... 🧡 UTMP 🧡
