the luck that they get cannot be explained in a rational way, deffo higher powers at work where these are concerned.

Why was West Brom goal disallowed ?

Linesman called offside on the West Brom player standing in front of Allison.

It's not a clear and obvious error, so the call stands.

I’ve ran out of words for that football club I really have.

Encapsulates my thoughts entirely.
I took the dog out around the block with fifteen minutes left and spent most of those minutes wondering what sensational headline there would be to describe their 98th minute winning goal.
Not even my warped imagination could come up with that.

Your guess is as good as mine

The scum to finish top 4 and Chelsea to miss out only to win the champions league and deny them

That can’t happen sadly. They’d both still qualify

We're never going to here the end of this. It will be on every end of season round up.

It was clear and obvious that he did not interfere and that the player who scored was onside.

Why was West Brom goal disallowed ?

Because it might have caused the crimson crud to possibly miss out on UCL qualification . And the PL and UEFA can't have that , now

Genuine question.

If he’d not flagged it, could it have been disallowed by VAR ?

The level of upset in here when they win is weird.

Well if they’d drawn or lost we still could have caught them and potentially got Europa League

If by higher powers you mean non sequential banks notes left in an unmarked brown envelope in the away dressing room then I agree

Read back in this forum matey. If they finish 4th, they in cl regardless if Chelsea win

...nope, totally puts me off. Not even looking forward to our game now.

I’m not vaulting, but ever since a few posters on here were saying it was all over for the Reds when Leicester beat United, it’s gone as downhill as Everton Brow.

We need to get over it. Let's concentrate on our own team. They'll finish miles behind both City and their own points total from last year. Other than Salah, pretty much every player has performed worse than last season, and they won't spend much over the summer. I never wrote them off for the Champions League either, I remember when Paul Gerrard kick stared their fading season and they won 3 cups and didn't lose for the last however many games of the season. They are like Dracula, you can never presume they're dead until you see the stake go through the heart.

No, because it's not a clear and obvious error.

If the West Brom player is deemed to be interfering or not is a judgement call that isn't up for review.
