    [Albion] Neal Maupay's post-match red card

    See that bit I've bolded? That. Onside or offside is factual. You are either ahead of the "last man" when the ball is played or not. It isn't a matter of opinion, it is an objective truth. Our ability to accurately measure offside with the current VAR technology is where the problem lies...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay's post-match red card

    That's because onside or offside is a factual decision and the authorities believe the technology is accurate and reliable enough to know down to such tiny margins (I know us fans don't agree but that is a different argument). When it comes to whether a challenge is a foul, it is defined as...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay's post-match red card

    It's a weak argument that it was like Dunk's - Maupay didn't have possession of the ball, or likely to get it, it was further out, there was a second defender covering, and it was more Maupay running into the well placed defender rather than the defender grabbing the shirt and pulling him back...

    [Albion] Neal Maupay's post-match red card

    I think there was one in particular in injury time where the wolves player blocked him off and the ref gave wolves the free kick.
