Save Of The Season?

Just a thought. Because a goal wasn't given should Bogdan's save from Clint Hills header be considered for save of the season??

Bit like a nomination for Natasha Giggs as mum of the year. Just because she is a mum doesn't make it right :-)

No, obviously without Bogdan it would have hit the netting, but I don't think you can call a save in that manner and a save out of play a save of the season.

I think it's a save... If he hadn't have stopped it, the goal would have been given for sure. Ergo, it's a save...

But a save behind the line, therefore it's a goal, if it's a save, it's not a goal, it was a goal and wasn't saved, it was only because the linesman was poor that the goal was not given, Bogdan didn't keep it out, he just stopped it hitting the netting and got fortunate.

In the paper tomorrow it will say that they lost 2 - 1 and that Cisse scored their goal. Ergo, it was a save.

Don't talk shite

It wasn't a goal therefore it was a fuckin save

He didn't save it though, he just prevented the goal 100% being a goal, i.e the ball hitting the net and no need for any debate.

 

How can it be classed as a save when it was out of play and if the ball goes behing the goal line, it's a goal, he did his best and did excellently to get summat on it, but it was done behind the line. He saved us a goal, but he didn't save the shot.

 

If that's talking shite, then fine, no need to reply to me as I've said my opinion and won't change it.

It wasn't a goal as it wasn't given. End of story.

If he hadn't of saved it, it would have been a goal, so yes it was a save.

It was technically a save, so well done Bogdan.

that line indicates a save, by dictionary definitions.

Must be me then, if a player scores an overhead kick out of play it's not classed as one of the goals of the season. Even if it somehow stood, you'd be a bit embarrassed to receive an award for it, yes you did great with the effort but you did it out of play.

 

Bogdan didn't save the shot, the ball was over the line, it was only not a goal because of a wrong decision, he got something on the ball, but behind the line is not a save. it's a goal, just because human error didn't give it, it was still a goal, once the ball goes over the line, the keeper has been beaten, he saved the ball once it was inactive, luckily he wrongly 'saved' it because of the officials.

 

So technically yes he did save it and I change my mind :blum: :blum: :blum: :blum:

Human error didn't give it so it's not a goal, just like human error gave a corner instead of a goal kick.

Diddles you mug it was a save.

Only a goal if the ref gives it

 

And that's a fact, dids

Or if Gerry Taggart scores.

It's obvious that he would not win any award due to the nature of the incident but it was a great piece of goalkeeping.

 

Looks like we have a good one on our hands with Bogdan. He has the best parts of Jussi's game in his armoury and a few more besides.

 

He could be our No 1 for years to come

I thought it should been a free kick on bogdan by zamora.

 

He backed in and stopped bogdan getting to the ball, so when he did get to it, he was behind the line.

No, in the same way if a player took the ball round 5 players, did some ace skill, but shot well wide, then took a wonky deflection and went in for an own goal, it probably wouldn't be considered for goal of the season

if messi commits an unpunished foul 80 yards from his own goal, then beats 17 men before scoring the goal that wins the world cup final 3-2, in the 97th minute, it wouldn't be goal of the season?

 

get to fcuk

 

course it would

Which season?

Save of the season for me. Bollocks to whether it was over the line or not, what he did stopped a goal. He had no right to get anywhere near that ball, never mind get a strong enough hand to it divert it back out the opposite way!

 

I gave him a bit of stick when he first came in, and I was adamant that Jussi should come back as soon as he was fit. However I am happy to eat humble pie and say I was wrong, Bogdan has been very good ever since and looks like he is now fully 1st choice.

I agree, it would

 

But That's a completely different scenario to one I described

 

Have never seen an own goal win goal of the season in the same way I've never seen a save of the season be given to a goal that should've been, and I imagine you never will, for seemingly obvious reasons

Its wasnt a save, it was karma :thumbsup: We were owed one after we got screwed against the bin dipping twats.
