It's funny, but to be honest it's the sensible option right now. Going for an unproven (in Prem) foreign coach right now is a bigger gamble. Seems West Ham are following Newcastle and Watford's examples in seeking an unfashionable yet experienced Englishman to provide a bit of stability. Quite impressive how many British managers there are in the league at the moment; Rodgers, Lampard, Hodgson, Wilder, Potter, Howe, Dyche, Smith, Bruce, Pearson, Moyes.
Ah, I was wondering whether they there checking if Taylor had blown the whistle before the ball had crossed the line. Fortunately for Taylor he hadn't.
They had to check that the referee hadn't blown the whistle before the ball had gone in. If he had, the goal would not be allowed.
It's sounds like that from next season things may well change in that regard. Even some pro-VAR fans like myself don't like how offsides are treated at present. (Fair enough not changing it mid-season, because that creates unfairness either side of any such change.)
