A few weeks ago it looked like the Gaz magic was in overdrive, but unfortunately failing to beat 5th bottom Bristol Rovers at home last night dropped them to bottom, and 8 points off 5th bottom, having played a game more.
Going to need snookers now unfortunately! Next 3 still offer hope, but then it's Birmingham and us away!
Re the Wrexham goal last night. Was it offside? Looked like Fletcher was onside at the point of the initial shot, then he received the ball from a Huddersfield 'pass'. Possible I'm misunderstanding the rule, but I don't think that's offside?
Well there was definitely a foul in the build up but regarding the offside, he was behind the keeper for the second phase so surely offside? Did it definitely come off a Huddersfield player?
The law is closer than 2 opponents, does not specify goalkeeper. From what I have seen though, the goalscorer was behind the line when the initial shot came in, putting him in an offside position. The ball then rebounded to him from a Huddersfield player rather than being played to him, so I would say offside at the time of the initial shot which is key (unless it deflected off of two different Huddersfield players which it might have done)

Seems a flaw in the system that Liverpool won the league phase of the Champions League and ended up playing PSG.
