theyve drawn it to the top part of his arm, which is not now being treated as handball, hence its part of the body that can be offside

its utter guessing garbage but thats why theyve changed where they are drawing the line to
I thought they said armpit now? FFS, so this incident is both the rules that they've totally bastardised rolled into one then. Offside and handball. :poop:
 
Clinical in the end by Chelsea. Glad Sheffield and Burnley are down there, it gives Fulham hope that we may be fighting against a single relegation place as I can't see either doing too much. Not expecting much at West Ham though

It's beyond a joke. I already disagree with the concept of drawing the lines on it - just let the ref view it on screen and make a decision - but to make matters worse they've drawn it in the wrong place coming out of his forearm! No ref on earth would look at this and say he was offside. It just beggars belief. They're killing the game bit by bit.
That just proves they don’t know what they are doing.

They changed it to "the sleeve" now.... It's ludicrous.

I'm looking forward to the first goal scored with the top of the arm.... I wonder if they will disallow it.

Changing the rules to suit VAR is baffling.
 
Well it took 92 minutes before the inevitable

Lookman what a moron

I thought pen was defo but should have blown up before that corner was past the added time (I know it's minimum but still)

But what a terrible pen
 
Was thinking that watching west ham should have a special place in the random irritations thread until Lookman had his 'hold my beer' moment...
 
Thought I had wasted 15 quid until the 90th min!
2nd week running being on the wrong end of the softest of soft penalties but justice done this week.... That Pananka! What a plum!???
 
lol at trying the panenka at 1-0 down in the 96th minute
Outrageously bad. Deep in injury time for a point you just leather it don't you? If he saves it he saves it, but just hit the target with a bit of conviction at least. He deserves to miss a few games for that.
