I think several of us are gonna need to be talked down from the roof over the next few hours.
Kane's header? Maybe he could have done better with that? Son pretty much clean through and didn't shoot, other than that I can't remember anything too bad, but that doesn't mean there weren't any..........That's just off the top of my head.My minds abit hazey due to the anger of this ridiculous law.
But what examples of poor finishes did we have today?
Diers obviously. Lo Celso central to goal with weak shot. What others?
IFAB is basically the body that sets the rules of the game. All national football associations set the governance of their national frameworks in accordance with IFAB's work. The PL implemented the handball rule this year, but it was actually drawn up in 2017 (I think) but individual confederations and associations have implemented it over the last three years. UEFA implemented it in the CL two years ago, for instance. It's the same rule that awarded Liverpool their penalty against us in the CL Final.Cheers. So who's likely to have come up with this law. Is there a head of refereeing within?
Well done, Brucey ??????Newcastle boss Steve Bruce talking to Sky Sports: "I can understand why Spurs will go beserk and Roy Hodgson reacted like he did. It is a total nonsense, we should be jumping through hoops but I would be devastated if that was us. Maybe Roy is right, maybe we all need to get together. The decisions are ruining the spectacle. We have to get together as managers and say this must stop.
Dier did not "lean into the path of the ball" and the ball did not "travel some distance".Just seen this on the BBC
Just in case, you were here and wondering what all this handball fuss is about, this precis of the laws of the game was initially posted in yesterday's Premier League live:
(Ok, I might have added the last point)
- Hand/arm is clearly away from the body and outside the "body line" .
- Player clearly leans into the path of the ball.
- Ball travels some distance.
- Ball touches hand/arm that is clearly raised above the shoulder.
- Player falls and the hand/arm is extended laterally or vertically away from the body.
- Deflection clearly makes no difference to the ball touching a hand/arm that is clearly extended away from the body and/or above the shoulder
- You were born with two arms
so you are saying every team who win 1-0 does not deserve a win? ffsMy minds abit hazey due to the anger of this ridiculous law.

Something drastic needs to happen to put an end to this. It's gone beyond a jokeI honestly hope the managers get together next week and refuse to put out a team to play before something is done about this.
I know its just that in turn the rules have created the worst decision.It’s not the decision it’s the rules
Harsh rule but correctly applied.
The game should've been killed off long before then. We were walking a tightrope as long as it remained 1-0. We can fu@king bitch and moan all we want but it doesn't change anything. Couldn't convert our chances. Couldn't deal with Carroll when he came on.
And Dier is still a complete and utter waste of fu@king space. Offers absolutely zero. Missed an open header. Can't pass, can't tackle, has the mobility of a London bus. A liability. Every opponent will clearly target him. Useless.
He was pushed by Lascelles(?) who was behind Dier. Carroll will win 9/10 ariel duels. It's about picking up the second ball around him, which we did.He literally had nothing much to do until Carroll came on. It's not his fault it was a daft handball, but his defending at both set pieces was poor. Carroll's looking at his shirt number, which as a defender you shouldn't allow the attacker to do. Dier hasn't learned how to defend set pieces properly and makes cock ups time and again.
Come on now, it isn't blaming the broadcaster its voting with your wallet. Stop paying and they will look into the reasons why, sadly no where near enough people are going to be switching off, but I certainly am.
I just cannot believe this was the intention for f the rule makers. This must be down to the moronic interpretation of the referees. How have we gone from the stupid rules when handball in the build up of a goal to the other extreme when defending?
The refs need to come out and defend their decisions, talk us through what Dier could have done different for it not to be a penalty. There has to be some form of intent for it to be a penalty, making himself bigger etc, otherwise what are they penalising?
I already hated VAR because it stops you being able to celebrate a goal but this is now just stupid.
