I don’t think it is conclusive the orient player got a touch. Certainly not from the positions of the officials so they have to give benefit of the doubt
That’s very generous. I think it’s a shocking miss from the linesman.
Commentary team mentioning that the playoff final will have VAR.
Which is stupid, we haven't had VAR at this level all season, so why not use it in the semi if you're using it in the final? Or better yet just don't use it at all

To be fair to the ref and lino, that must’ve been very difficult to spot in real time. And looking at the angle the lino had, I don’t think he could have seen the change of the path of the ball. Unfortunate for Stockport.

Maybe for the ref, but It's clear from the side view so linesman had to have seen the path of ball changed before it reached Kelman.

Isn’t that the whole point of their headsets? Worked well in Sheffield united game. Ref should see the flick and the Lino should then confirm he’s offside

Well yeah, but I think it was just one of those cases where in real time neither of them could be sure of the flick on. It’s an error, but you can see how it happened. It’s obviously the sort of thing VAR would address, but as we’ve seen, VAR comes with loads of bullshit too.
Would Bauer’s goal have stood if we’d had VAR in 2019?
IMO yeah.
If you mean the slight pull back then i see it as no different when that tall forward for millwall scored a late goal against us and was all over our full back. Still would of given it as a goal.

You can only assume the lino hasn't seen it.
Unfortunate for Stockport.
Don't know where the lino was, but he weren't in east london!
Will be painfully tight vs Stockport.
Would Maradona's Hand of God goal?
Would Geoff Hurst's 1966 goal?
All academic questions.
It's literally night and day.
