He didn't dive like a goalie, he was on his feet. I'm not sold either way on whether it was a handball or not. Certainly not as clear-cut as Felli's handball against Swansea.
"Deserved to win" means a lot. It's a reflection of hard work, physical effort and application of technical skill, three aspects of play that we conspicuously lacked against Leeds. I would love a bit more luck or good fortune, but not at the expense of anything resembling effort by the players on the field.
And at no point did I say Mason was anything other than awful. I simply observed that as a team we were pretty woeful for well over an hour, which is why we were 2 - 1 down. Mason didn't make Naismith miss the target with his free header at the back post, nor did Mason make us give the ball away to concede the first goal, or compel Mirallas to take possibly the worst corner I have ever seen. Yes he failed to give a clear penalty, possibly two, but don't you have higher aspirations for this team than playing like cr@p for 80 minutes and hoping that the ref gives you a couple of penalties towards the end? I know I do.
