Said for ages why do they not mark lines down the sidelines to mark and align them to. Which would then negate all the angles. It's a half cooked system that is destroying the joy in the game. Designed by business or legal cunts who have been paid far too much money and have no clue.The other patently stupid thing about Var is that they draw those silly lines as if it’s geometrically precise but pay zero attention to the point the ball actually leaves the passing player.
It’s drivel.
Kane wasn’t offside, surely it wasroyal?I have seen it a few times now, Kane is behind the fucking ball, so how can he be offside? As far as I know, you can't be offside if the ball goes backwards.

Well, we played with heart the last 25 minutes..........We played with heart in the second half, wasn’t that bad. Basic football but good intensity
You can be offside if the ball is played backwards, just checked.It doesn't matter Emerson played the ball backwards you can not be offside when a ball is played backwards
It deflects off the Sporting player and lands at Kane's feet
He legit under the rules can not be offside a
His arms are down running and it came off him from like 20cm, never a penalty.Did it touch the arm/hand of the defender? If so, looking at the pen Atletico got, it should have been a pen because its obviously not PL rules for handball.
We aren't better than Sporting on evidence. Beyond that Marseille were giving us a tough old time until they went down a man. Plus, their ground is gonna be something. good luck to those that go.
My thoughts exactly.
Thought the same leaving after the defeat to the camel botherers on Sunday. Not a tackle in the game, yet the ball was hardly in play and I think the blonde tranny duo both went down with injuries at least five or six times each. Awful. That said, liverpool city week befor was a great gameHonestly, as much as I love Spurs and the Club, the reality is that what I have a passion for no longer exists. The game has gone. Now a prime time pantomime that functions to entertain the fat international armchair bound wankers and day trippers with selfie sticks and a bag full of merch. STH to my right sold their ticket to a lovely Korean ‘fan’, but one who was chatting/streaming to her BF all game, looking at her close up videos of Son from the warm up pre match, not even watching the game.
VAR and all the gamesmanship are turning what was a decent, physical game into a British version of WWE/F. It’s not sport any more. It’s a filthy reflection of modern life: to cheat and weasel is to do.
Our stadium is also an altar to materialistic greed. £75 for a basic match day ticket. Fuck off. Kits for the kids? Cheap replicas £100 please. Fuck off.
Players and staff more disconnected from fans than the Royal Family.
Fuck this shit.
Have a great evening all.
