Obviously it was onside and the lineswoman got it wrong. But that's not what he was saying, was it?

OK - you are here for the full 30 minute argument so I'll bow out. But it really isn't a difficult concept - calling an offside that takes a freeze frame to prove is not a worse decision than missing obvious fouls in the box when you are 5 yards away. If you want to argue context then knock yourself out.

Sian Massey is generally a brilliant lineswoman and so if she got it wrong, then I've no doubt it was a hard decision to make.
Was your wife the assistant referee?
Unfortunately I omitted to tell her she needed to visualise Watford or Wolves during the draw.
From 5 to 90 minutes. Then the wnkfest over Millwall died off from the vaselined BBC duo.
Plenty of NSC comments about Pearce & Jenas bias to Millwall, throughout the game. Their dream of an underdogs win down the pan.

When people are losing an argument they tend to alter the context to divert from their initial statements.

Just like post-war, a winning football manager gets to set the narrative. No acknowledge that we were comprehensively outplayed by Millwall throughout. Still, it's all good, TB, as a minimum, deserves a big Wembley day out for his investment.
Yeah, I was thinking that would be how you script a football match.

Personally I find her a bit flag-happy. What happened to keep your flag down if you’re not sure?

Glad to have won despite shocking reffing.

Exactly, she made a huge mistake at a critical point.

Hmmm, ok.
You don't think it's possible that you, as a Brighton fan, is biased?
I didn't feel there was any clear favouring of Millwall. Respect for the what they had done to come this far, and respect for the job they, as a Championship team, were doing on us - which is a worthy topic to talk about. That's about it.
She really, really, really isn’t you know.
She is absolutely shocking, and would be officiating a hell of a lot lower than she is, if not for her gender.
is the instruction from the FA.
