Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
Kane has a rather large head, which is bigger than the ball and the ball is bigger in the first image, given you an idea of where it is.

It’s not past him - as you said yourself it’s above the shoulder. It is hard to gauge depth on a still though, and the speeds and directions of both are (by definition) unknown.ZeroRemorse wrote: ↑10 Apr 2018, 22:45 Buy some glasses, the ball is miles above his shoulder in the first photo and is basically past him.
Baffled.
Gotta fear for his daughter though, given the video evidence.

If we are examining credentials, well I was banned from the Physics Laboratory after electrocuting the Physics teacher with a Van de Graaff Generator and was therefore the only one in my school that never got as far as the Physics O Level. So it's probably me that ZR is referring to I guess.

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
Naaaa !!! Even at a really slow delivery speed of 60km/hr that means the ball is travelling 17 metres per second.
There is no way it's dropping the 4 or 5 cm distance to his shoulder over the ball width of 22cm which would be past his shoulder.
Sorry little Ivy Jane ....Not a chance Daddy touched that!

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
MotD is quite lame for campaigning it too when there's a really good angle and stills showing he didn't touch it, no bias there *cough*, can't have a Muslim lad from Egypt winning the golden boot over our boy 'Arry
Being a little OTT, but they definitely have a predilection for homegrown players.

You realise that the photo gives you zero information about the trajectory of the ball?ZeroRemorse wrote:Sorry, are you guys blind and ignorant of physics? I really don't mean to be rude, but that's surely what it looks like. From the stills, it's clear as day he could not have touched the ball given its trajectory, his body position and distance from the ball.Finisher1 wrote: ↑10 Apr 2018, 18:15I think you are making too much assumptions.

+1
The video evidence only supports this even more.

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
If it did touch him (extremely unlikely given the evidence) then I would understand him commenting on it in interviews with a cheeky smile etc.
But to swear on his daughter´s life, personally contacting Gary Lineker to tackle the issue on MOTD, to send a formal complaint to the FA. It´s just so small time to me.
His job is to score goals to help his team winning games and achieving things, not trying to rob a goal of a team mate in an already won match.
But feel free to disagree.

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
I don't know how much this is Kane and how much it has just spiralled into a drama to be honest. He said it had touched him, others derided that, he then over-reacted with the daughter's life thing to get the message across that he was being sincere - these things happen easily. And the complaint to the FA came from Spurs, not him, and probably has as much to do with their team spirit thing as anything.
I don't know if he touched it or not. I think he believes he did, though, and that people may perhaps be giving him too hard a time over this issue.

The stats are dark and full of errors.
Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
Luckily I have an ESPER machine in the loft, so I ran the Kane images through it and what you can't see directly is that Gareth McAuley is actually behind Kane and McAuley's hair definitely got the final touch.

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
I honestly don't trust Spurs as a team, they dive without shame, they are notoriously sore losers and now this from Kane to get closer to the golden boot kinda just sums them up for me. That's the reality of their behaviour unfortunately. (I think this goes against some of their players nature, like Eriksen).
The stills prove a lot, they prove none exist of the ball actually touching his shoulder, I mean there should be at least one still of the ball grazing his shoulder right? I'm amazed there's not if he really did touch the ball.
The other bit of conclusive evidence is the video angle shown above, it quite clearly shows daylight between his shoulder and the ball all the way past him. That's game over.
I don't think it's overacting Ruth, Spurs have acted dishonestly on a regular basis in recent history, to the point of bringing the game into disrepute.
For the record I wish he did touch it and the goal stood, he's in my team! I just don't like seeing dishonesty in sports. Football has enough of it.

Re: Kane's 'goal' v Stoke appeal
I can't believe Eriksen is happy about this considering he hasn't scored a free kick in the league for about two years! Granted he didn't mean to score this one, but that stat looks terrible considering the amount of FKs he takes...

That kind of thought occurred to me as well, Mav3rick. But McAuley is a sore point with me and this season he has been replaced by Milivojevic the penalty king.
Yeah, I can see that point of view as well.ZeroRemorse wrote:I don't think it's over-reacting Ruth, Spurs have acted dishonestly on a regular basis in recent history, to the point of bringing the game into disrepute.

I was actually hoping for someone to post evidence that he did touch or at least post some debtable evidence that suggests he did. I don't care what the majority told me, if I cared about that I would be a Justin Bieber fan

Go back and use the ball as a size and distance reference. The ball is larger than Harry's head in the first photo and smaller than his head in the 2nd when viewing from that angle (the ball looks like it is the same distance Kane to the camera). The ball in the 1st photo is visibly larger, as well as the Nike symbol, Shawcross's head and the badge on Harry's arm.
For me, this clearly shows the ball is past Harry or nearly past or even if it is above him, it still has too much work to do, to dip in time and graze his shoulder.
The 2nd photo the ball is coming to us but going to the left and it still looks like far too much work for it to drop and hit his shoulder.
That's how the stills appeared to me anyhow if we disagree that's fine.
