AppyDAZE Posted October 27, 2018 Report Share Posted October 27, 2018 The lino missed this, the ref didn't that... I agree with Holloway on Quest tonight. It's plain cheating and about time the PLAYER got the stick for this kind of nonsense. "Ball to hand" my arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 When I looked at it a second time MAYBE it came off the angle of his knee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citysimmo Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Just talking generally, have always thought that if a player gets red carded for preventing a goal with his hand, the same should apply for trying to score one the same way. Same difference / reward. And yes, that would still apply to Fam when he tried it earlier this season and I didn't like it then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 This thread should have more replies. Im falling right out of love with football due to the cheating that goes on. Maybe it´s always been this way but the diving and handballs even down to appealing for a throw you know isnt yours is bang out. Roofe should have told the ref.

Did you listen to Bailey Wrights commentary, where he was talking up deliberate fouls and how he enjoys watching 'professional' fouls because it's all gamesmanship. In its basic element, it's cheating. Deliberately breaking the rules. FWIW, I am not a big fan of BW, he's the type of player to trip, pull shirts, obstruct etc, and then say 'What me?' He's got a bit of rugby player in him. I also would like to see a 3 card system, where minor cards can be handed out for trips, pulling shirts, time wasting etc. These could be issued when the play is stopped rather than stopping play, and accumulate enough that add up to yellow or red. It would also allow bookings for a player even on a yellow card if it's a minor infraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Sooner VAR comes in the better. Another blatant handball in the Palace v Arsenal game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your right Super, the Irish fans who though it was hilarious when England got cheated out of the world cup by Maradona didn't quite see the funny side when it happened to them with Henry. Who could forget Palaces phantom goal, I thought it was great (because it happened to Warnock) but take the point that if it was us we'd be spitting nails..

I always thought that goal was disallowed because Sears' arm came across the chest of a City defender just before he shot. The resultant free kick just happened to be in much the same place a goal kick would be taken from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way is any player telling the ref, there’s too much at stake. i don’t blame the refs for missing it sometimes though, they only get one look at full pace after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppyDAZE Posted October 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 His cheating alone cost Forest (it could've been anyone) 2 points yesterday. Scandalous that he doesn't serve at least a one game ban. So much wrong with football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would tend to agree cidercity BUT can you imagine the abuse Roofe would have got from his gaffer and team mates? Essentially he would have lost them the game by owning up!!

RedM Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Maybe a 10 mins cooling in the sin bin like rugby could be in between the yellow and red. Doesn’t hold the game up much, not sure what would happen if several in the bin at once though! Also these blatant cheating decisions could be looked at retrospectively and bans/cards handed out, doesn’t change the game at the time though I guess, eg goals don’t get chalked off. There is too much at stake now, too much to lose if you lose that why players and managers use any advantage they can, underhand or not. I don’t like it, it takes what honesty there is out of the game. What’s the fun or skill of winning by cheating, but that’s it the game is so much more than that now. Too much money involved , the rewards for success are too high not to be tempted. Sad isn’t it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 The answer at Premier League & Championship level is VAR. There is so much (money) riding on these games now, and multiple replays available that it won't take much to put in place. Goal line technology is now fully accepted, so it's only time. As for the deliberate hand ball into the net, the goal should be disallowed and the player sent off. Combine that with VAR and it will disappear as a problem. As for Roofe there should be retrospective disciplinary action, simple as! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it was clearly caught on the TV replays, so absolutely no chance that the EFL or FA will do anything about it, unlike the bans our players have had. Dirty Leeds, always cheating!
