What is this shit with everyone saying Nolan was onside?!?
His shoulder is closer to the goal than džekos body. Can he score a valid goal with his shoulder - yes he can, so its fucking offside!

The problem we have is that the rags have picked up points v teams against whom we have dropped points. It is only to be expected that both City & the rags will slip up at certain stages of the season but both being amongst the top sides, it will only happen infrequently.
The rags won at Anfield & Stamford Bridge but lost at Everton. They are two points ahead though & that game is gone. If we lose at Chelsea, 5 points behind, if we lose at Goodison, 8 points behind. Bob will ensure we lose at Arsenal, 11 points behind. It is always possible to lose a derby, especially with refs.
If we are to win the title, we have already put ourselves in the position where either the rags have to fuck up, or we will have to produce some big away performances.
As it stands, they have a decent advantage already, much more than the points suggest, & we have to get it back.

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

The rags lost at home to spuds. We win at the weekend and that should redress the balance a little.

True but we will still need some big away victories unless they fuck up a couple more times v average teams.

We need to start with a massive statement at home to Spurs, As the rags may on the start of a 15 point haul.

It sounds like you've given up already.

Doesnt the rule state any part of the body you can (legally) score with?

You mean like the shoulder that Mario scored with?
