Robbed on two counts in that April game then! My interpretation at the time and possibly even still now, was that Weimann goal quite marginal so some you get, some you don't - error within standard ranges if you like. Interesting to hear it was definitely wrong however. Penalty though was shocking! At 0-0, given our counterattacking style away from home, it opened up the game and that blunder had a major impact on us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More of a general point than aimed directly at you. There's a common theme within the fanbase and has been for years. Facts are, most clubs in this division would take our manager off our hands on a heartbeat. He's absolutely class and when he moves on, we will be poorer for it.

But they do seem to have a sense of entitlement - we were obviously supposed to turn up and show them a bit of respect whilst applauding their brilliance and inevitable win - same for the referee apparently.

That Knockeart (whatever) was luck to have just the one yellow. He was at it all the game. He twice lashed out in a punching motion, both times at Eliasson including an attempted kick at him as well. Cairney was lucky to just get one yellow in the penalty incident where he got booked then gave the ref another mouthful as he walked away - should have got another yellow. They don't like it up 'em.

I think he did actually connect and kick him, was reckless and even though he did get booked for it a few refs would have gave him a red I reckon (even though I do think a red for that would be harsh). Any footballers love playing against players like that (mitrovic the same) as he is a liability. On the home game just go straight for him and wind him right up imo from the kick off.

Swede Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I didn't think it was a penalty; What I find interesting is the comments made by Cairney, their captain in saying that he could see what was about to happen in that he could see the clip occurring.

The only thing that makes it look bad to my mind is, where is CO'D going? He doesn't appear to be chasing the player or trying to get between him and the goal, he would have been better off staying out to the edge of the box once he was taken out of the game with the pass. I think there is a clip, but the referee is closer than the camera, so presumably there is no contact. If he had booked the player for diving he would have made his life easier in some ways, because it would have made it clear he thought there was no contact. As he left it, it looks like there was contact but not enough to get a penalty, which is a grey area to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InCyder Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I'd be screaming penalty if it happened against us down the gate and at first watch I thought it was as clear a penalty as you can get. After watching it a few times, I think the ref made a very good call in tough circumstances. You can see their attacker slowing down and moving in COD's direction rather than charging towards goal with the ball. He knew exactly what he was doing and the ref didn't buy it. Simple as that.

The Fulham fans around me made the point over and over that he either dived or there was contact. I could not really argue too hard with my red socks on and as they all stand up for any action on the other side behind the goal, I could not see the incident at all. But accidental contact or light contact as players are moving in different directions doesn’t mean it’s a foul - although usually given in the box. Moreover going down after light contact is so normal now you could excuse the ref for accepting it wasn’t a no contact dive but not a foul either so not a bad enough “tumble” to be trying to fool the ref and thereby no booking. I like this approach but have to admit it is rare and grey and quite a thin line between the two. Great game from what I could see.

I think football has been slowly heading that way for a long time. I think that’s wrong and like this approach but I also agree at the other end I would expect to be awarded what is often awarded in similar circumstances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a clip, but the referee is closer than the camera, so presumably there is no contact. If he had booked the player for diving he would have made his life easier in some ways, because it would have made it clear he thought there was no contact. As he left it, it looks like there was contact but not enough to get a penalty, which is a grey area to say the least. Perhaps the ref thought Kebano changed his run to ensure contact.

However, to get that and that joke of a penalty go against you same game...certainly unfortunate. That's one word for it anyway, unfortunate. Can add the numerous yellow cards we had given to us to that list, players and coaching staff. Yet when a Villa player did similar 9/10 times we didn’t even get a free kick. The Villa players antics, that Lino, and that absolute bastard of a Ref still boils my piss now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitchurch1966 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Watched it a few times, he actually goes down with his legs part which makes it look like a dive, if there had been contact on is left foot it would have been pushed across his right making him fall, maybe he felt upper body contact and thought it was enough to fall, I can't see how his trailing leg could be clipped by someone running at a 45 deg angle across him and those legs to be 2 ft apart when he took his swallow dive.

Absolutely correct. The only thing the ref got wrong was not booking the flying Dutchman for panto he's BEHIND YOU!
