Who cares? The intention of the offside law is to force a midfield game with passing rather than goal hanging. It was never intended to be adjudicated to the millimetre. We should stop demanding it to be. Things were fine before VAR.
While derby is something of a misnomer the bitterness among the two sets of fans involved is surprisingly strong. It dates back to when Alan Mullery and Terry Venables were the managers of the two clubs: the former Spurs teammates had a very public falling out which was latched onto by the fans and so the "M23 Derby" was born.
Exactly that, it's the offside law that needs to be amended.
Yes that's what started it although I think there is an element of "nobody else hates us so let's hate each other".
Not likely to be resumed next season as Wythenshawe AFC and Wythenshawe Town.look to be going in opposite directions.
No, I hate VAR and will not repeat my tirade against it again, but be assured I find it repulsive regardless of the outcome. I hate it all.
Absolutely shambolic defending in the late stages of the game. Deserved everything we got for failing to take advantage of a defence that made ours look competent.
You can remove the "Celtic and" from that sentence. Despite the idiots that ran onto the pitch to celebrate in front of the Broomloan stand, I don't remember any Celtic fans running the length of the pitch to throw lit flares into the opposition seating. I watched Rangers "fans" do exactly that. I know it suits the pearl-clutchers in the media (and on here) to paint a false equivalence between the two sets of supporters ("two cheeks" and all that) but there really is no comparison.

I rather suspect the blue balaclava lot had come looking for trouble and equipped to avoid facial recognition
Indeed. Both sides looking for trouble, pathetic all round. Hold me back!
Not a good couple of days for goalkeepers in orange playing for English teams.Yet again a clueless Chelsea defence concede idiotic goals compounded by the fact the club don’t have a goalkeeper that’s up to it or decent centre halves, back line changes game to game & that doesn’t help at all.
PSG were not outstanding but did their job more than adequately, annoyingly Chelsea didn’t play badly with a few excellent counter attacks but look at the scoreline
Well that’s £70+ for the second leg ticket down the drain but your team is your team at the end of the day.
Still Villa, Forest and Palace to play, but not a great week nonetheless.
Or he bought a ticket to St James Park Exeter, in which case his journey wouldn't have been queried at all.
Assuming the story can be stood up, did the individual in question actually have any match ticket before setting off from London?
