See now if it was anyone even remotely sensible I would be sure it was a wind up but coming from you I actually do think you've managed to convince yourself it was forward. I'm sure we will see you in the news at some point in the future as part of some sort of wacky cult.

Thats true mate it was defo forward .

is possible to post screen captures on here so i can put this forward pass argument to bed.... it was forward

Another clueless fool. I assume this "screen capture" will show Hall's hands at the point of release will it?

just the position of the player on release and then the position of the player when he caught it , got jack all to do with the hands dude and i`m afraid to say but the ball travelled forwards about 1mtr to 1 1/2mtrs hence forward pass....... none of this momentum bull that we have seen in the past it was forward.....

i will add that i have seen teams get away with far worse and probably will do in the future but not on this occasion

I stopped reading after that. You may wish to go and have a look at the rules.

Did as you asked, and it clearly states the referee's decision is final, End of

No it makes the point that a head coach should be able to behave like an adult in public rather than a spoilt child. Thats our job

Should of been a try no question. But FC need to get over it, poor decisions happen over the season.

I thought Craig Hall was excellent yesterday.

For the benefit of the Robins fans that do not understand what a forward pass is, this is directly from the RFLThe direction of a pass is relative to the player making it and
not to the actual path relative to the ground. A player running
towards his opponents’ goal line may throw the ball towards
a colleague who is behind him but because of the thrower’s
own momentum the ball travels forward relative to the
ground. This is not a forward pass as the thrower has not
passed the ball forward in relation to himself.[/i

The pass was 100% backwards relative to Craig Hall's run. If it wasn't, the ball would have ended up in front of him (which it didn't). If the ball went forward relative to the ground (which I can't tell from the TV camera views) is irrelevant no matter how close it was. The ball clearly is backwards relative to Hall's run, even at the worst of angles.

That's unfair. The guy has shown his integrity with that statement. He came out and said he had no plan to stop Cookie and sent his team out to prove it.
