"We shouldn't allow" - The ball is not a naughty child that we can put on the step.

Shouldn't allow a child in the box late on either.
"On 1 January 2015 Jones awarded Liverpool two disputed penalties in a 2–2 draw with Leicester City. Liverpool's first penalty was given for a handball against Wes Morgan, though replays showed the ball clearly struck Morgan in the face.[10]"
REFEREE DECISION: After initially awarding the goal, Keith Stroud consulted with his assistant referee and reversed his decision.
DERMOT SAYS: Between them, they've got it absolutely right. The assistant, Peter Kirkup, doesn't know the ball has touched McArthur. When you see it go in, the referee knows it's a goal because he's looked across and not seen any flag, so he gives the goal. The assistant may then alert him and say we need to talk here to discuss McArthur being stood in an offside position. That is not an offence, but if that ball has touched him it's offside.
When the ball hits him, Kirkup doesn't know. But he knows he's in an offside position. But what I thought was really good - once he alerted the referee - is that they went and spoke. They didn't just speak over communication; the referee has gone across and spoken about it. It's the perfect package - if you were teaching anyone to referee, that's how to communicate".
"This time it was the turn of another of the country’s supposed ‘cream of the crop’ Assistant Referees, Peter Kirkup.
He is the man who made history by being the first English assistant referee to be sent home from a major tournament whilst his referee and fellow assistant were kept on (EURO 2012)".

so it's now Tim's fault that a blatantly off-side goal was allowed to stand?
WOW, that's a new low for the plotters and haters.
He got strong contact on a weak back heel from a defender and it still ended up in the net...
Tim did get a weak hand to it, but I feel he thought it was well offside which it was, but the assistant referee somehow missed it also the chelsea players celebrated in the crowd no time added on for that??????

perhaps he though the Ref was going to ignore the 'ball going into the net is a goal' rule as well as the offside one?

was more the lino, mullarkey I think he's called, not calling offside. iirc the ref aint allowed to blow for offside unless the assistant calls it unless I'm wrong.
yes its the assistant referee who can be overruled by the main Referee!

I don't buy that concept of adding time on for celebration. If that was the case there'd be 5 minutes plus added on every week.
And in a fair world we would have won that 3-2 (and been beaten by city midweek, so it is swings and roundabouts over the course of a season). Players have to play to the whistle though it is all about the concentration which is just another part of Howard's game that costs us points now. I literally cannot think of another team that would have bottled a 2-0 lead quite so spectacularly though and that should not be ignored in the midst of a shocking referee performance...
