Spot the Ball

If the laws of the game dictate a dropped ball then we should lobby the fa and get the game replayed just before bent scored.why should we accept this

The beachball deflection impacted directly on the result. It doesn't matter who played well and who didn't, there was only one goal in the game, that goal decided the result, when actually it shouldn't have been allowed.

[Darkon]

Oh and you remember that game a few years ago when Arsenal played Sheffield Utd, and instead of throwing the ball back to a Sheff Utd player as fair play and etiquette would dictate, Overmars and Kanu decided to score a goal instead? Well that game ended up being replayed. Guess who the Sheff Utd manager was that day

But that was Wenger insisting on a rematch wasn't it? IIRC the FA had nothing to do with the second game being played...

We do seem to be taking this lightly , Ok we was **** but I can guarentee you one thing ,If that happened to any other side they would be screaming for the replay and IMO so should we , maybe the lad who threw it will feel a bit better too

[RoadEnd]

Have you ever tried popping a beach ball ? he would have smashed his jaw bone out of shape with his knee if he tried to stamp on it.Or do you think he carry's a stanley knife in his socks?

He should have used the valve.

Pinch either side of the valve and squash the ball to slowly deflate. To get the last bit out, roll up on floor and this pushes the last bit of air out. He should then have folded it up neatly, climbed into the stand and given it back to it's rightful owner.

Nice to see the lack of passion extends throughout the club and not just the team.

[Joe King]

I'm not usually one for the conspiracy/woe be us type posts, but I can only imagine the uproar in the media if this had happened to the Mancs, rather than all the jokes and just laughing it off which I have been hearing on the radio etc since it happened.

Maybe

[Fierce]

Surely we're not just gonna bend over and take this though? The club I mean, not us fans

If a blatant and obvious rule has been broken then I don't know why we wouldn't kick off?

A replay is just not going to happen. Accepting that, what else could be achieved?

Unfortunately that's the case look at games were a goal is given and the ball didn't cross the line the result stood. Look at the Crystal Palace game earlier this season, the result stood. A replay is not going to happen!

I do think we should have made more of it though

That's very different though, it's quite clear that Sunderland's goal should have been disallowed. There's no argument, it's in the rules.

[Shaggy]

Sunderland should've let us walk up the other end to equalise. Bent in particular is guilty IMO. That sly ****er knew his lame shot was being gathered by Reina, yet he ran off like he'd scored an amazing solo goal in the last minute of the World Cup final.

There was no argument at Palace either, in fairness - the ball didn't even go in! It wasn't even close to being in, it clearly went wide! Yet a goal was given.
