Kevin Nolan was onside

We all thought Kevin Nolan had equalised in the 89th minute at Old Trafford  in dramatic fashion and I found myself celebrating the goal that never was along side 2,500 Hammer fans much to the amusement of the Manchester United fans pointing to the linesman flag.

Sam Allardyce told Sky Sports post match: “Somebody told me his nose or his head might be offside, but I don’t think you can base a decision on the fact that it’s a nose or a head offside.There’s no way if that’s the case that the assistant referee can see it. For me it’s blatantly onside and it should have stood as a goal. Nobody else can convince me any other way.”

Here is a photo of the exact moment, looks onside to me, not that it matters anymore.
