Albert's Ghost Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Brian didn't need to touch that. Could have been given offside. Great stuff anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarciaBlaine Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 I’m still baffled why it wasn’t given offside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG1970 Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) Possibly- although I’m maybe stretching it a bit - if you freeze the video it might just be Graham is in line with Harry when he heads it? Certainly Brian isn’t standing on the goal line as Bullen claims. Think it was going in without the need for Brian to knock it in … risky! Anyway, we deserved to win! On another day we might have scored 4 or 5 Edited December 17, 2022 by JAG1970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggy Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 At the game from the far end of the JH I thought maybe Lawless was offside and it looks possible. Graham was maybe silly touching it, but not sure if it was more a case of it hitting him. It's possible it was over the line before it hits him and that's why the goal stood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the ref discussed the goal with the lino suggests this to me also- I assume he asked whether the ball had already crossed when Graham touched it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eljaggo Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 The video shows Milne scoring - I'm really confused about why Graham was credited and why he seems to claim it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanieD Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 If a goal like that was given against us we'd be raging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham was maybe silly touching it, but not sure if it was more a case of it hitting him. It's possible it was over the line before it hits him and that's why the goal stood I am inclined to agree with this. Looking at the goal (courtesy of Camallain) my first impression was that Lawless could be offside. The keeper also thought this as he had his arm up claiming for offside before Lawless crossed to the far post. It also looks to me that when Milne heads the ball Graham is just about level with him and is moving forward toward the goal line perhaps anticipating a rebound. I don't think he is offside at that point. Also, although the angle is not great, not a criticism of the recording, it looks like it's Milne's goal as the ball could be over the line before it hit Graham or he makes contact. At no point is Graham 'standing on the goal line'. I think from the match stats we deserved to win the game and Bullen is just a bad loser. I suggests he tells his game analyst that he should go to specsavers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscat Jag Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Graham definitely touches it before it crosses the line but he doesn't look to be ahead of Milne when he heads it. Think the linesman called that right. Can I be Thistle's Video Analyst? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
