Yes.
Seriously that looks in to me. I might be wrong but if it's not in it's by like 0.01mm or something.

Yes.
If the ball is inline with the sole of BAE's boot, then it looks over the line (just).

He just posts shit in general.
Edit: as for the goal that was/wasn't. Who cares? at the end of the day, at 5-1 it hardly matters. Of course their should be goal line technology, but the second goal being scrubbed clearly wouldn't of mattered in the long run.
2nd edit: and Scott Parker nearly having a cry was great.

100% of the ball has to be completely over the line, and a bit of it was in that shot, so still no goal. And no redemption for Martin Atkinson, as giving a goal means that you are 100% sure that 100% of the ball was over the line, which was not what happened.
They won 6-0 last week didn't they??
are you mad that I don't like your favourite team?
Hey their black kit looks nice!

Tried getting him to drop football and get into another sport earlier today, didn't take the bait.

No. Jealous no doubt.
Well it wasn't a phantom goal thats for sure.

Atkinson isn't really redeemed cos he told 'Arry after the game he was "more sorry than you are" to which 'Arry replied "No I don't think you are" so unless Atkinson meant "Bitch plz I feel sorry for you cos you're gonna look stupid in the morning when everyone else sees what I saw" he cannot possibly be redeemed.
He probably looked at the same replays everyone else saw before this image came out which was thought to confirm no goal.

Not at all. In fact, I'm glad you don't like them. I think just about everything you say is rubbish. I don't dislike you or anything, but I really do get the feeling you just type whatever crap comes in to your head.are you mad that I don't like your favourite team?
What a shame.
Look, on behalf of Chelsea and our fans, lets scrub the second goal. It's gone... 4-1. There we go, good 3 goal margin victory.

Despite loving Avengers and Marvel, that shirt is fucking awful.
Aaaaaaand today I wanted to park my car near Vallecas Stadium as I always do, but surprise, surprise. Four hours before the match, the main street where the Stadium is was closed. Had to drive for about half hour to find a spot.

People already know 'Arry is tactically inept.
I know the red line doesn't look straight but because of the angle of the pic mainly + the way it distorts to the bottom. It is parallel with the back of the left post so it's as close to straight as it can get. I even used the ruler tool in photoshop to make sure it was.
Be easier to make out if the pic wasn't distorted.

Judging the ref for not calling right that decission is ridiculous.
No one could have called it right in real time and with that melee.

I'll take your word for it but maybe try with one of the other pics posted? They look like better quality ones.
Correct, whch is why IMO he shouldn't have awarded the goal.
the latter is why you judge the former. an official shouldn't give a goal unless they're sure it's crossed the line.

Still debating that phantom goal? They finished the match with a 4 goal margin, what difference does IT make.
A goal can change a match.

A whole league or tournameant really, if it wasn't for that Lampard goal and blind ref during the world cup England would have won it easily.
It changed the match, but I always felt that Chelsea were going to win it anyway. I'm just sad/angry about the shoddy refereeing.
Same method. Can see how absolutely tiny the margin is - its the wrong decision but it's not as terrible as it first looked; doesn't really excuse the ref as there's no way he could be absolutely sure it crossed the line imo.
Now I need to go do something entertaining before the fact that I'm drawing lines on a picture (and being really rather anal about it) overwhelms me.

Where did his right arm go? :lol
I missed Chelsea V Spurs. Driving to 5 a side and it finishe whilst I was playing. Sounds like the whole debate could solved within 30 seconds if we had goal line tech.
Also, I'm going to leave this here. Sorry if it's already been posted.

Fair enough, thanks for that Hixx. Atkinson is shit.
SAF has said he took Rooney off because he was getting complacent and he's "worse than the others" when he's like that and he wants to keep Rooney "on the edge". Interesting, and very true. In fairness Rooney himself has said he has to do better in his interview with MUTV.
Still 31 for the season now and 3 behind RVP in the hunt for the golden boot! Expect RVP to score a couple tmrw though.

It did, it actually g'd Spurs up and they started playing better than us and got one back. Then we stuck 3 more past them.

You should have posted a picture of Wayne Rooney lashing out too. Go back and watch the incident in the match and you will see why that and what Balotelli did are very different.
Also, I'm going to leave this here. Sorry if it's already been posted.
The Sky commentators just said, "haha, good ol' Paul Scholes. Never good at tackling. haha"

Scholes can't tackle for shit. News at 11.
And that makes it all okay.
I didn't it, not watched MoTD.
Was it similar to this?
Or no where near as bad. How bad a challenge on the Paul Scholes tackling scale of 1 to 10?
So,im just going to leave this here:
But guys - when I asked for a photo that showed PROOF it was over the line I was laughed out the thread and called a shill - what was it, 700 angles showing it "wasn't anywhere near the line"?

On a normal scale? About a 8. On the Scholes scale, probably a 5.

He didn't, Atkinson instantly raised his arm towards the center-circle to indicate a goal.
