Because the players made him change his mind. If he had gone to the linesman of this own accord with no outside pressure that's one thing. But the players surrounded him and influenced the ref. Just because they were justified, doesn't make it right. Players always think they're right but the FA is fining clubs for allowing their players to surround the ref. In this case, the players' actions caused the ref to change his decision. Right or wrong, the ref's decision should be final.


I've just re-wound my sky+ to watch the full incident again and not once does the ref signal it was a goal so how did they make him change his mind? He was probably always going to ask the linesman...
 
Chelsea have been quite poor today, have to say fulham deserve all 3 points, but i can't help but feel another last-gasp goal coming :o

I'm going by the radio so apologies if they're not saying it as it actually happened. Even now, BBC Radio is suggesting he blew and signalled for a goal.

Ah right ok :). He did blow his whistle but not for the goal and he didn't signal at all from what I saw.
 
Wouldn't be surprised to see someone get sent off in these remaining minutes...

...Or to see things kick off in the tunnel afterwards.
