@jakeywally@NiteWars@EODWX5@BuzzPatterson Speculating that they floated due to a gust. Obviously no braking till the weight of the plane is down on the mains, which didn’t happen till very far down the runway.
@MrJamesMay No, the wing likely had more drag than a smooth counterpart. The shape probably increased all three types of parasitic drag - skin-friction the most, then form, and lastly interference. The greatly increased surface area and the ridges would not allow the air to be laminar.
@oklainah@BenVolin You’re still drawing a line across the pitch with the second to last defender as a point of reference though… overlapping bodies make no difference to the enforcement of the rule.
@oklainah@BenVolin Because you’re still going to draw a line to determine offsides whether it’s on the defender or 2 meters behind him… it’s still just as black and white as the existing rule.
@JMC9787 The existence of the rule is a double-edged sword. Obviously intended to prevent cherry picking, but as soon as you start drawing lines, it’s black and white. Would like to see something like the zone in hockey implemented, but it’s regarded as the “simple game” for a reason.
@iamlord_anthony@FabrizioRomano@welt I love pancakes so it must mean I hate waffles… same principle. That’s just not what he said. Any team is gonna be frustrated with a red, doesn’t mean it wasn’t deserved. Reading comprehension is hard I guess.
@NealGardner_ The problem is these type of balls never arrive in Barcelona. Kane feeds off of crosses and his players driving the box. They overload it and are unselfish. Same things happened with Lewandowski at the helm back at Bayern.
