But hey... We got away with Okonkwo not getting sent off vs. Bristol City so makes all other decisions against us this season okay

Not to mention cov getting away with one in this very game in the area.

Great run from TC and good pass. Tough to finish from Kelman

Don't know if Kelman needed the touch there. We can score here though, playing quite well in bursts

Kelman is so far ahead of any other striker in our squad, why the fuck has he been sat on the bench?

There’s no way the linesman can clearly see that Kelman is interfering with play after an offside position from where he is standing. Joke decision and pathetic from ref to agree with linesman

This is the line just as TC crosses

From this photo he looks a fraction offside to me

No way the lino can see it though

Whether he could or not, it is ultimately the right decision isn't it.  As frustrating as that might be.

You can see the Norwich players' reactions, they have absolutely no idea why it's disallowed and they're mystified how they've got away with one there

Sky showing that is was VERY tight. Kelman fractionally offside. No way that a'linesnan can judge that from 30 yards away. 

Angle on sky makes it look offside. Look at the 6 yard line and he's stood in line.

Yet if he cant see it... he's guessed... You should surely only be making decisions if you're absolutely sure?

Those be the rules.

It's offside, whether it's by 1mm or 1 mile it doesn't matter.

Officials make some strange calls in this league but when they get it right you've just gotta hold your hands up.

If we were any f**king good, we could go and score another so it makes the disallowed one irrelevant 

Var would of probably given it as offside but wish that linos in the EFL gives the attacking team the benefit of the doubt and not call an offside for something that was a few millimetres 

TC has been fantastic this half

Knibbs gets a very delayed booking for dragging down a player behind play in that last City attack.

We are a top league 1 team, over performing in the championship, and that's a total reflection on these owners. 

Disagree, not their fault we wasted £15 million on shit players.
