Was it ? Looked like he was behind the defender

Hemed's disallowed goal
- Thread starter The Wookiee

Looked well on side to me. Dreadful mistake .
My initial thought was that he was behind the ball, so can't have been. But did see a mention somewhere that Calderwood acknowledged he was probably just off...look forward to seeing it again, though whether it'll show anything who knows. The elbow for their red card doesn't really show on the main camera angle but clear as day from where we were that he deliberately swung his left arm into Hemed's face (which MK players conveniently ignored when they whinged about it after).

Goons on Channel 5 couldn't be arsed to show it. I thought it had to be onside but maybe I'm wrong.
There's usually not much point showing 'offside' goals from single camera as you don't usually get a conclusive view. They'd only ever bother if it affected the overall outcome.

there was a defender between him and the goal - absurd decision

I thought the ball went backwards
Where was the keeper? We concluded that perhaps the keeper was infront meaning only one defender was between Hemed and the goal line.
We thought that, but didn't the keeper go for the cross?

I was in a box on the side, where you could walk freely along the whole side line (dugouts side). Whilst we were attacking in the second half I was right down that end. I was dead in line at the point of this incident, and he was dead level, there was no part of his body offside.
Wrongly disallowed. The ball did go very slightly forwards and TH was marginally ahead of the ball.

I was right in line with it too. I felt that he was in front of the defender when the ball was passed to him but level when he knocked the ball into the net. However, I don't know about being behind the ball. It was close but my instinct was slightly offside.
I couldn't see it as offside at the time, but....
Colin Calderwood says he's seen the replay, and although marginal, he thinks the linesman got it right. So it seems it wasn't the wrong decision at all.

Think there's some misunderstanding here. The flag went up for the original ball - think it was from Kayal to whoever crossed it in. They were marginally offside, and then pulled it back for Hemed to score.
So, Hemed was fine, but the crosser wasn't.

Hemed was only 1 yard out so there's a good chance it was off and gingers flag went up immediately but I doubt 7000 badly placed will ever know definitively.
