Today's Football - 2023/2024 Season

Beto should have been awarded a Penalty according to the rules.

I would much rather incidents like those were never given as penalties.

But when I see other decisions for other teams, then I feel its fair to ask why we are not getting them.

Cos its easy.

Whenever things go against Uncle nobhead over the park he cries like a little bish for weeks after it, it makes Refs less likely to go against them.

Not saying its right, but its certainly effective.

This idea that contact = a penalty is one of the most pernicious in modern football - it does not exist in the laws of the game; it has to be a foul.

That was not a foul.

Spot on. Ridiculous call.

If you watched my son play football on a weekend morning and married up the contact required in the PL for a foul…

… well, the match would be abandoned for a lack of players due to the number of red cards. It’s farcical.

We wont agree mate.

Its a soft peno and Bruno is a diving rat, but according to the rules of the game there is contact and its a peno, the problem is the consistency and the interpretation of the rules.

Ian Wright and Roy Keane have both just said they think its a pen.

And Martinez.

That is not what the rules of the game say though. As what you posted up says, he has to have been tripped. If he has thrown himself to the floor as he did, that is not a trip.

I would want that, if it was our player getting clipped.

But I would also be calling Bruno a diving rat if it was against us.

What a tosser diving like that against a league one side. Don't know if that or the rat with a whistle giving it is worse

Look you could want that to you're hearts content, you won't get it. It's a sly 6 pen.

In times of frustration for us you can always rely on African football for a bit of a laugh
