[formerly manx toffee]

Really soft penalty. We wouldn’t get that

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

How was that not an obvious dive?

 

[maccavennie]

Hes kicked his calf Tim.

Ahhh I haven't seen that I was looking at his foot.

 

[Walken]

Forest look grim

 

[Ring master]

If the keeper doesnt half crouch on that pen, he surely saves it

Very strange wasn't it

 

[Goat]

Ahhh I haven't seen that I was looking at his foot.

I mean its a total dive, but the yard dog defender kicked his calf and made it easy.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Hes kicked his calf Tim.

Minimal contact followed by a theatrical fall

Players wouldn't go down half as much if refs stopped rewarding them with soft fouls. You don't get decisions without throwing yourself down and a lot of that is because of the officiating

 

[Walken]

There is initial contact then he dives on the second motion

 

[MrGrumpy]

Should of sent the ref to the screen

 

[Chegsy]

Forest look grim

Fingers crossed they drop. United at home for them next though. That will be interesting.

 

[MrGrumpy]

How is Gordon on the pitch, does a foul get a yellow then claps the ref, should be a 2nd yellow

 

[Goat]

Should of sent the ref to the screen

Nothing would have changed, the Ref would have seen the calf kick and still gave it.

Thats the problem with VAR, it highlights the little things.

 

[PhilM]

Forest look grim

I'll be surprised if Santo is able to get a fiddle out of this bunch because for me they're showing what they really are now the new PL bounce has dissipated.

 

[Chegsy]

Elanga squares that its 1-1
