Weimann Wells and Pring doing very well tbh

All playing well to be fair...

Watford are there for the taking. We have looked the better team by miles all over the pitch. First goal really important today.

[TonyTonyTony]

We have to turn this pressure into a goal

[old_eastender]

Defender kick Wells in the head, and ref says no foul. Clear Pen denied again.

[City_USA]

Diabolical call from the ref there

[ExiledAjax]

Imagine how good you'd feel putting your studs head high in the penalty box and getting away with it.

[miketh2nd]

I'm sure their player knew Wells was there, should have been a Pen!

[MarcusX]

That seems as stone wall as any decision we should have had 

[Nugget]

Playing much better than recent times but gotta take this momentum.

Side note, not sure but maybe that is Andy Cole in the crowd behind NP in the black hat

[And Its Smith]

If he kicked Wells it’s a penalty and if he didn’t it’s an indirect free kick I believe. What it isn’t is play on

Didn't think was a pen. Wells diving it made it look worse than it was. 

However will defer to replays

You can’t put your foot that high and expect to get away with it, don’t even need to make contact for it to be reckless

I know but it has to said every home game recently even if we know the inevitable usually happens.

It's ok. Sure we'll get another apology ... 

COYR!

Playing well but not winning. A story of recent times 

[old_eastender]

Terrible corner from JD, gets the chance to try again.

No chainsaw involved so definitely not a penalty for City

[Spike]

I mean let's be honest, if we raise a foot in our box we all know what will happen...

[Bris Red]

You just know what is going to happen if we dont get a goal.. we need to capitalise on this pressure.

Doesn't really matter if he knew or didn't. Studs at height that near a head is reckless or even dangerous play. That's therefore a free kick offence. However doing that in the box means it's a penalty. Yellow card as well. It's all in the laws.

Sheffield Utd game comes to mind.

[old_eastender]

Wells pulled back in the box now, again no pen given

[Lanterne Rouge]

Blackpool winning

[Spike]

Scott with a bit of a dive there, I like how he wins free kicks but he dives a little too much at times, he'll get a rep if he doesn't keep that to a minimal amount. 

Wells shirt must have gold in it, they seem to want to rip it off of him...

[collier]

Shirt pull there on Wells?? Seen them given for the right teams.

[old_eastender]

Best game Joe Williams has had for yonks today.

[Dan Robin]

City playing quite well and referee refusing to give clear penalties or cards in our favour. It happens too often...and usually we lose points, points that could be vital to avoid relegation 

If Mr. Lansdown, Mr.Gould and co. are happy with us being cheated...
