I do wish we'd gone for the throat of some of these sides. We scored one goal in two games against this Middlesbrough side and they're just so vulnerable.

You’re forgetting that Luke Ayling turns into prime Cafu when he plays against us 

[TheUltimateWinner]

Boro have got away with one there  not even a foul given

He's an unpolished shit.

[KFS]

Couple things:

 

1. it’s embarrassing we lost to this pile of shit defence twice

2. Boro’s number 15 is probably one of the worst players I’ve seen at this level for some time 

3. Leeds will concede another, but whether or not Boro can sort their shit out will define things 

[Foxmeister]

Will Bamford ever stop bloody moaning to the ref?

If it's that clear, then there's no excuse for the Assistant Ref not to see it...

 

Sure and yet. History has seen some absolutely unbelievably bad offside calls in both directions. It is impossible for a human linesman to be looking at both the ball being struck and the defensive line at the same time, our vision just doesn't work like that. Reviews of offsides should be as much of a given as goal line technology, it's just obvious. 

 

Leeds will never get three easier goals than this, just bonkers.

As did Jimmy Dunne, no surprise given who they are up against

Or they are just shit? Probably shit to be getting it this wrong on a gamely basis. Officials in this league are awful.

It’s a mega error. Not looking to excuse the lino, but it’s gotta be because Bamford is blocking his view? 

[Dan LCFC]

As a general rule though. That's Leeds and Southampton who've both scored 3 times in the first half in the last week. We've done it once all season. I think we've got the attacking firepower to have done that numerous times.

 

Anyway come on Boro. Think it's very unlikely we're promoted tomorrow night now, but a draw isn't out the picture and a draw is absolutely great.

That Leeds fella will be on later telling us it wasn't offside

if the linesman is keeping up with play he'd see Gnonto as hes just ahead of Bamford, its honestly shocking

I am so ****ing fed up of the lack of VAR in this league.

 

I don't give a shit how many trogladytes want to cry about armpits, there's no excuse for not having it for offsides. It's cost us multiple times this season. Shit like that could cost us promotion.

 

It's not even close, there's borderline daylight ffs.

Shouldn't need var when it's that obvious. I keep saying though about the var debate, that even if you completely remove it (from the prem) it won't make a shite of difference as refereeing standard in this country is at an all-time low. Whilst I don't agree with the way Forest have gone about things, I think they are right with questioning the integrity of officials. When such obvious decisions aren't given like that 3rd Leeds goal there, there's just no excuse for that

But games (such as this) have been ruined by atrocious officiating for decades. So what's the difference? 

and this is unfortunately the best argument in favour of VAR and one that I can't really refute
