An atrocious first 30-40 minutes but nowhere near as bad thereafter. CT has pointed out the outrageous incident regarding Walker.

Re: Offside - By an Arm!!!!
It's also impossible for players to manage the game if offsides are to be decided by the pixel. A cunning attacker can learn to watch the line, time his runs, bend his trajectory. These are all.skills. But when offside is judged "by the pixel" the element of skill is diminished and we're into the re...

Yes, however, you have to remember that those running the game say that offside is black and white, you are either on or you are off and VAR proves this.

Here's a picture of Lyle Foster which proves he was offside - by an arm.

Here's a picture of Bruno Fernandes which proves he was onside - his arm isn't interfering with play.
