Like a lot have said, Gail to understand why anyone would take the piss out of a club because they reduce ticket prices. It should be applauded given the outrageous cost of going to football these days.
It behaviour and loyalty of a clubs fans that counts not the price they pay to watch.
 
Crap fans.
To be fair, I hear you say "why should we?",they have a hard core of good fans. Like us they have good crowds regardless of the football served up They are relatively on the up compared to us now, but I always wonder how the media would react if it was us and them fighting for the Premier League title. Mostly localised fans who have both coped with shit ownership but have remained loyal and vocal. They remain skunks, but other than their relegation to League Two, the other scenario I would like would be us fighting out for honours because the rest of the country's big crowds have had much, much more recent sucess.
 
It was offside and VAR is allowing for a bit margin of error now. This is a shit quality image unlike the better quality what VAR will see, plus the computer will say if the lines overlap. You can see there was a gap between the blue line (Young) and the thicker red line (Wilson).

It looks close due to the camera angle but swing this around to the linesman perspective and the gap will be inches. This is another camera angle and now look at positions of the leading feet against the grass line and also how far Wilson is leaning forward given it's the top half of him that's offside. Ings looks close simply because he's tall because if you took a line directly down from all 3 players shoulders, you'll see that Wilson is clearly further forward. The question is "where do you draw the line?" and the answer is no matter where you draw it there will always be close calls. I think the lines should be even thicker so it allows for stuff like this.

It's all meaningless anyway. If we got (and scored that penalty) we would likely have still lost still lost deserved to anyway.
