Eh?

You'd think with the scoreline at 4-0 with 10 minutes left the home side players would tell the ref it wasn't a goal

I think the Ghost goal awarded by Stuart Twatwell in the Reading v Watford match is on par with that if not worse. I dread to think what he'll magic up on Saturday.

One of the worst ones I can remember (and really really aggravated me at the time) was Lampard's goal in the World Cup against Germany. South Africa I believe?

The ball was so far over the line it could have been the size of a beach ball and still been a goal.

The pub I was in went bonkers.

Not that we would have won that game. We were shite..

[Beliall]

imagine if you had a bet on 4-0. (the ref had 5-0 obviously)

Mike Reed Leicester 5th round FA cup replay vs Chelsea 1997 give a penalty for a blatant dive in the dying minutes,

 

All the top teams had been knocked out of the FA cup by this point and i honestly believe if we won this game we would have at least made the final, it was disgusting!

The commentator doesn't think it's the worst decision *ever*, he says it's the worst decision of the decade.

I think it's up there with booking the wrong Arsenal player, allowing Roy Carroll to scoop the ball back from in the goal and the Watford ghost goal.

Pedro Mendes ghost goal. Cost Spurs 3 points at Old Trafford. Worst Ever.

I've never been as gutted as I was that night. And until you mentioned it (and I checked) I didn't realise how many crap teams made the Quarter Finals that year. For the record, the line up was:

Chesterfield beat Wrexham

Portsmouth lost to Chelsea

Sheffield Weds lost to Wimbledon

Derby lost to Middlesbrough

Semis:

Chelsea beat Wimbledon

Middlesbrough beat Chesterfield (replay)

As you say, if we'd gone through that night, we'd never have a better chance...

The beckford red card against brighton still annoys me to this day. As bad a player as he was, it was really harsh to send him off for stepping over a defender while the defender was on the ground
