Penalty shouts

[Filo]

Two stonewallers for handball denied tonight, one right under the West Stand lino's nose, where do they get these clowns from?

[Lesonthewest]

Didn't see the first one but the second was absolutely nailed on, how he hasn't given it is beyond belief.

[donnievic]

Only one for me 1st handball when he sat down,2nd one yeah it deffo hit his arm but was close to the shot and his arm wasn't really out although he did turn his back and uchi slipped for his appeal

[Filo]

First one for me was nailed on, how the lino has n't given it is beyond me!

[Lesonthewest]

Second one he got both hands to the ball, as Wellens was illustrating to the ref.

[RobTheRover]

Hi dived like superman to stop it.  Absolutely nailed on penalty.

As a ref, you must wonder what the hell you think you saw when 3 sides of the ground, in unison, all scream "HANDBAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!!!" at you, then proceed to boo you like you are some pantomime villain.

That first one...

Jesus wept. What was the linesman watching?

Not the game, thats for sure!

3 good shouts, 2 nailed on, 1 10 yards from Ref with no players in the way. Would have been a travesty if we didn't win tonight.

The first handball looked a dead cert for me, especially with the defender going to ground.

[BillyStubbsTears]

The referee and linesman miss important decisions because they have to watch for too much.
The basic dishonesty of players can be relied on, the offside rule is a farce, plus they are trying to keep up with twenty odd year olds when they are pushing forty.
For me they both have an almost impossible job, the offside rule has done most of this.

Aye.

That AND the fact that they are cheating Kitsons.

[DearneValleyRover]

There is no excuse for either handball to have been turned down.

[roversdude]

to be fair Furman got away with one too - i was under the impression we were all there to see the ref last night, what a clown

The first shout was in direct line of sight of the West stand lino, the ref was close for the second.
