It kicked off with two Woolwich fans in the south stand so I suspect it was them.
This is it.
Is it really worth a banning order and getting nicked? If it’s just a shirter I would say no.
This also gets me so annoyed - the lack of replays.
With all the cameras and tech, oh but suddenly there is a shortage of footage. How convenient! Absolutely nothing dodgy going on! Then you get the commentators chatting about random shit instead of discussing the blindingly obvious foul on a Spurs player or whatever it may be etc.
Unless it was actually the substituted Odorousgard wearing his favourite players shirt?
At last years NLD, I followed a Woolwich fan in through the south stand turnstiles, he was blatantly wearing a top. Walked past 3 stewards, who ignored fans telling them there will be trouble if they don't remove him. Took a supporter to tell the gooner in no uncertain terms what would happen to him, he covered his top up.. But the Stewards were useless.
I didn’t watch but let me make a bet that not one real NLD challenge went in!!
The moment they let the Kulusevski penalty go and Saka scored, somebody needed to go through a few of their players and end a couple of seasons like Chelsea did to us.
Shows the intention of the premier league that they chose Oliver.
Shows how much of a piss weak culture this club has that we’ve never publicly called Oliver out and pressured them not to assign him to ours games.
You have a link to the ref watch?
That’s not what ref watch said .. Warnock said the Kulu one was a penalty, Dermot Gallagher (the actual ex ref) said no.
Dermot also said the VAR call to rule out the VDV goal was correct.
I don’t know where you’re getting the it should have stood opinion from? It’s not on there at all.
Clear and obvious is not being applied.
If it isn’t a penalty then it isn’t offside either.
If it is offside then they have to give the penalty.
Personally, I prefer the no penalty and no offside option as VAR is ruining the game for the fan.
(Just to be clear, I’m talking about the penalty in the first half at 0-1)

I've stood in the opposition end when we're away but always respected they are supporters and I would never show my aligence... blatantly.
Particularly in the Midlands where I have mates that don't mind getting me tickets for WBA, Villa, Wolves etc.
Still got the hump about the zonal defending... its shit
The panel split over Kulusevski penalty incident in north London derby
INCIDENT: Spurs wanted a penalty for a challenge made by Leandro Trossard on Dejan Kulusevski before Woolwich scored their second goal.DERMOT SAYS: "I think there is a little bit of a nick on him, but then he clips his own heel. For me, minimal contact not a penalty."
Stephen Warnock: "I think it's a penalty. The big thing for me is, whether it is minimal contact or not, there is contact.
"I don't like it because it is very difficult to get out of the way of. Trossard clips his heel which makes him then cross his legs.
"By interfering with my stride pattern, you have knocked my leg where I can only kick my own leg. But I don't go down unless you don't touch me. That can only be a penalty."
Really frustrates me that as a club we just accept poor ref decisions
I've been saying that since the stadium opened. It's very poor not to let the fans build up a head of steam before the kick off - especially in a game like yesterday's. Who knows what effect it could have had on both teams and that cunt Saka.
On Dermott’s point, do the laws mention anything about contact being minimal or do they just describe a foul in the area being a penalty and not refer to the amount of contact at all?
No shortage of footage when we played Chelsea at home though was there...
