TheUltimateWinner Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 A major talking point if we'd have lost the game... Did our first attempt on goal actually cross the line? It's not featured in any of the highlights and I didn't see from the family stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry - LCFC Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 I don't think it did, looked on the line when their defender got his foot to it. I viewed it from the top of SK1 by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walshy5 Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Looked just over imo. From SK4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Perfect view, virtually on top of it it wasn't in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 I thought it was in, but so tight and you have to be 100% sure (unless you are Stuart Attwell). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentFox Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 I sat just behind the linesman, in perfect line with the goal line. He couldn't give it. Haven't seen a replay, but I think it needed another inch, maybe two, (don't we all), to be given as "all" the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelcfc Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 It was very tight, I didn't think it was from sk1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_LCFC Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 From high up in SK4, I would say it was just in. The whole kop jumped up in celebration. Thousands of people cant be wrong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Year Of The Fox Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 my boss reckoned it was two foot over the line, said he sat dead in line with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 No, I'm inline with the goal line, mind you the guy in front of me reckoned it was 10 inches over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastNeukFox Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 No, I'm just behind the goal in sk3 near front imo it wasn't in. I'd agree with that, with my view from SK3. Didn't look like the whole of the ball had crossed the line, before it was cleared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a decision that had an inch in it and those thousands are a long way behind it, they wouldn't be able to tell. Had Huddersfield done exactly the same thing those thousands would be sat down, wouldn't say they were right not to give it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayfox Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 For me in sk1 have to say my gut reaction was. It wasnt over the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thracian Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 It doesn't matter in the great scheme of things but how and why do officials give anything they don't actually see between them? Are they not tutored in this? If they don't see something they shouldn't give it. Simple. And in cases of the whole of the ball crossing the line that's a suprisingly long way and the chance of making a mistake considerable. If a referee or linesman doesn't see it has crossed the line completely then the benefit of the doubt should go to the defence. And this sounds so marginal that neither official could have been absolutely certain and certainly not the linesman. My life they find it hard enough to decide when the ball's gone right over the line for a throw-in. It's really yet another example of the need for the goalline technology the authorities seem so reluctant to employ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 It's not an example of the need for goal line technology at all. I sit dead level with it and it was never in. It was a simple decision for the officials and they made it. I'm pro technology but let's not drag that debate in to every irrelevant incident.
