The video of the match highlights clearly shows the ball well out of play, with the linesman close by with a great view of everything !! Disgusting officiating
Here is a photo of the linesman in question. I can see now how he didn't notice the ball going out of play, although you would think his guide dog would have alerted him.... please log in to view this image
Thank goodness for common sense ruling the day Shame the lousy ref and linesman can't receive bans to keep them both off of a football pitch for say a minimum of a month....
