Fulham 0-2 Newcastle United (FA Cup) - 27/01/24

[Stifler]

Commentators don’t have a fucking clue.

We have been through this pretty much every week so far this season. A an accidental handball by a player who assists a goal is a goal.

[UncleBuzzcocks]

You’d think it was the hand of god the way these boring twats are going on

Comms still moaning and bitching about the supposed handball ffs. 

[Colos Short and Curlies]

He’s a yard away, looking away from the ball and his arm is by his side.

 

dunno what the comms are smoking trying to make a case for handball

[Checko]

All that matters for accidental handball [unless the player whose arm it hits scores] is was his arm making his body unnaturally bigger? It wasn't so goal is correct.

 

Would be really useful if commentators and pundits knew the rules.

Happy that it’s given in our favour but would like an explanation of the VAR thinking.

Imagine being paid to commentate on football without knowing the rules. 

[David Edgar]

Fulham are pony. Been quietly confident all game. They've ran super hard, we've been sloppy and yet they've had barely anything. We will grow into this further.

[Decky]

Was slating the fuck out of Longstaff to a mate literally as he scored.

I'm really surprised. The fact the goal came immediately from that hitting Brunos arm I was sure it would be disallowed.

Why. We have seen those season time and time again why those goals are given, including a goal for us.

Previous law would have disallowed it but only if it touches the scorer

Yep we had a similar goal via Longstaff against Sheff Utd

[Lush Vlad]

Some finish from Longy on his weaker peg. 
 

Not been back on the right that long. Wins the corner and then scores. Maybe he just has a huff playing on the left. Because he is horrendous there.

Never a handball you Aussie cunt

To be fair, he was told by VAR they were checking it. Has to wait for check complete.

[wormy]

Dixon still incredulous the fucking dunce. Although I guess it must be quite the thing to get your head around them actually applying the rules correctly for once.

Comms on ESPN immediately said the goal would stand.

[Chris_R]

Regarding the handball, that's never a foul anywhere else on the pitch. Hand by his side, ball hit at him from 3 yards away. Always a goal for me.

[bigfella]

Fuck me, how long are they going to whine on about this?

[nufcnick]

Bruno needs to give his fucking head a shake 

[MagSA]

fuck Bruno...

[Aiston]

Did so well to get the ball past the Fulham player....hoofs it aimlessly afterwards

ITV haven't got a clue!

[duo]

they ain't half harping on about the handball - give it a rest

[soyt]

Bruno did something well and then that pass

[Mazzy]

Hard to argue with Howe that Bruno is better as 6 than an 8. He can barely fucking move let alone sprint, there's no way he could the job Joelinton, Miley, Longstaff and Willock do in those areas.

[Rich]

Bruno
