Denbury Red Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Watching Hull v Sheff Utd and at every corner and set piece the Hull defenders are purely grabbing the Sheff Utd forwards round the waste! Its totally embarrassing defending and should be stamped out! As the commentators have said - when were defenders coached to grab players whilst not even looking at the ball. Refs need to just give penalties every time this happens!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refs need to just give penalties every time this happens!! Watched the highlights on Quest last night and couldn’t believe what the Hull players were doing. These weren’t isolated incidents and not just one or two players. Pleased that goals were scored, although that let the referee off from actually making a decision. Totally agree with you, penalties need to be awarded every time when a goal hasn’t been scored and a few yellow cards wouldn’t go amiss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right - I think the powers that be were afraid we’d see games end 15-17 etc if every transgression of this sort was punished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
