Watching the goals on BBC prog last night I noticed how the Palace defender 
looked at lino and then started to chase Howson, then looked at lino again and 
stopped. This tends to sugest that flag was down when he first looked and was 
therefore a 'late flag'
Not that it matters at all -lino can flag whenever he wants and it was 
certainly before Howson put it in the net. Don't get a decent angle of Howson 
and defenders when ball kicked but he did look offside
None of it matters now WE WON !!! and deserved it.
Also on TV noticed what a lovely flick it was from Snoddy to McCormack for 
second goal to put  McC  through if he had not been pulled back - so congrats 
to ref for allowing play to go on and Becchio to score (thought keeper dived 
over it and should have done better)
Roll on Burnley - one of the few aways I am going to these days

Thanks Jim for confirming I'm not seeing things! I looked over to the  
linesman as soon as howson got played in and the flag went straight  
up. I didn't celebrate the 'goal' at all!
