    Mepham was 100% offside for their first

    Posted by Town planner on 13/3/2024, 23:14:51


    Not even marginal - what did they actually check, there were no lines shown. If u do a Solanke goal search on twitter the Scandi tv footage comes up and shows a clear offside.

    Also the second goal, the Muff no. 11 does a does a head-height kung fu kick on Alfie - of course that will make him flinch.

    Yes I know we ballsed it up but these decisions are a joke. Had the offside been checked correctly then we likely still win the game.

    Game management - make the players watch Spurs holding the 1-0 against us with 10 men - on repeat.

      The ball was already over the line whether he flinched or not. Stop looking for something that isn't there

        He was a good distance offside but when the checked it they were checking the 2nd phase???

          It was all the same phase, a matter of seconds, the assist of the assist.

          I think they checked for any infringements in the box, didn't even look at the offside.

          We need to get more aggressive in these situations, the coaching team should be in the 4th officials face calling for the offside check.

          We're just too nice, letting too much go.

            Didn't the forward pass come off Chongs foot.

              Deflection doesn't count, has to be a deliberate play. When their player hit the ball Mepham was offside.

                  As Chong was trying to block the pass it becomes a deliberate touch by Chong therefore he has been deemed to have played him onside.

                  If it accidently deflects off him it's offside.

            I thought he was offside, but when Peacock showed the VAR replay it was just highlights of the (admittedly good) finish

              I'll admit I don't understand the offside rule anymore but our goal that was disallowed for offside, can someone clarify please. Chong wasn't offside from the initial attempt on goal, and the ball subsequently came to him off the goalkeeper. My question is this, was he classed as offside because he was in an offside position when the ball came off the goalkeeper?

                He was offside for the initial shot but not interfering with play. But it's still classed as offside when the ball comes back to him, even though onside by that point.

                But again, tiny margins making a difference at this level. Did his job well distracting the keeper but should instinctively know to take a step back and get onside sooner.

                  He was offside when Barkley struck the ball.

                I agree about the kung fu kick and the guy man handling Carlton for the first goal.... but we just don't have the players (certainly available) to manage games ....we have one way of playing and tonight it got found out.

                  Certainly looks like offside from Town planner's post. That wasn't picked up at all on the feed I was watching. I also felt it was 50/50 possibly dangerous play for their 2nd. But ultimately I agree with you that we ought to have done better. We've conceded 4 goals in a single game, again. Regardless of how many we might have scored that is not good enough. The defence is where we need to focus on improving. And we have to work with what we have got. I felt we gave far too much space down our left for their 3rd and 4th. We should be positioned much better so they can't run at us so freely. We need to be closing them down much more quickly and not be so exposed. Also agree we need to be managing the game more from a winning position with a bit more steet-smart tactics.

                    When they showed the var for the offside they showed the wrong player,but I thought he was on anyway
                    That said we really could do with a Foster or Horton type of captain out there who knows how to manage the game
