I'd only take offence from somebody who knows a little bit about football m8.

Zing!!!

[TBM]

I personally don't think it should have been a pen - the advantage was played and he missed the goal.

If he didn't jump over the keeper it wouldn't have been a dive, it would have been a foul and a pen

Stonewall penalty for me as with most other pundits. Another poor decision going against us. More evidence in favour of Jose about the officials. They're really stacking up now.

But pundits aren't refs.....the ref didn't give it and its not as if he missed it

[No Fixed Abode]

But the majority agree it was a penalty. We know the ref didn't give it.

Talk sport agreed with the ref, as did Jenas on MOTD

The majority agree it should have been a penalty. But it's been pretty consistent over the last decade that if there's no contact and / or you don't go down you'll get sweet FA. So it's entirely consistent for a ref not to give it.

It's like shirt pulling at corners. It's a foul and there should pretty much be a penalty or freekick every corner. Barely ever given though.

So that's the majority. Talk Sport and Jermaine Jenas.

[Ouroboros]

Jenas is a fucking div as well.

Couldn't even say 'Salford' properly on Friday night.

No but it shows its subjective....it wasn't a "clear penalty" if not everyone agrees it was/wasn't one

[Brosef Stalin]

slight detour...if you attempt to punch someone but don't connect you still get penalised?

(i know it's a dif situation)

[AthleticoSpizz]

If it's for missing the likes of John Terry.......then yes you should be penalised

It's the 'intent'.

Which is why the Remy one was definitely a penalty. Remember when Gerrard wasn't touched in an FA Cup tie at Sheff Utd. He dived over the challenge and got the decision. The FA/ref came out and said it was the intent. So it's poor consistency from the FA again when the ref didn't award Remy the penalty.

They haven't played each other in the FA Cup since 1938

[Royal Rother]

The keeper didn't come out with the intention of bringing Remy down. He intended to make a save. In failing to do so he also put Remy off without making any contact - excellent goalkeeping I'd say.

If he comes for a cross, screaming "keeper's ball", flaps at it but misses the ball and by his actions puts the attacker off so it pings off the top of his head over the bar then that's not a foul either.

No real difference.

Good that you took time out to check that. I was incorrect. It was in the league. 2006.

Same with the Sheff Ufd v Liverpool incident I was talking about which was given.

And was so noteworthy because it was the exception to what was normal in awarding penalties.

Man up.

[sandman]

It's a Conspiwacy.

[AthleticoSpizz]

......and another fine handed out (£50k) for failing to control their players v Wet Sham (who only got fined £40k...another bloody conspiracy!!!!)

Just as well all these fines are small change

[Brosef Stalin]

it was defo a pen
