I've seen it twice now and there's now way Paul Hall was offside, just rank bad marking from Antwi.
He may win his fair share of tackles and pull off the odd acrobatic clearance,
but when it comes down to marking he is extremeley poor.

I hope DW gets them sorted out for this weekend, because Forest seem to be running into form at the moment.

Let's have Nelse and Ben restored at the back, not risk Boland if his injury has not cleared up,
restore Brown and Bob to their rightful wings and get two strikers on who can play together.

I still think he was offside, the view on TV is inconclusive but yesterday live I was sat level with it and thought he was off. The linesman was miles behind play.

What Antwi should have done once he got away was sacrificed himself and pulled Hall down. I think a one game ban is worth a point to the team, in fairness I think he did try to grab him.

Yesterday I thought Hall was offside,today I seen it on telly & couldnt tell,but what was obvious was that he left Antwi standing like a traffic light.We kept 23 clean sheets last season,so far this season its 1 out of 11.
Antwi may well only be a seasons worth of experience away from being the finished article but thats no use to us.He'll learn his trade & make his mistakes in a Pools shirt then Liverpool wil reap the benefit refred

He's a lot more than a season away, unless he's a very quick learner
He could do worse than learn from watching Ben Clark

Definitely offside. However I agree that there does seem to be a communication problem between Nelse and Antwi. This needs sorting quickly.

Have no idea, too far aywa to see or care :wink:

haven't seen the goal on TV yet, but don't know who was more surprised he scored! us or him banghead

Whether he was offside or not doesnt really matter,Antwi lost his man & cost us a point,maybe even 3 as at 0-0 there always a possibility of a winner.

It was a great shot though, lashed home and the keeper was taken by surprise.
