Greg Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Something quite funny about Wenger being furious and claiming the referee didn't see the handball so his decision was a guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 We haven't had a pen so far this season have we? 5Live doing their nut in about it. Shocker. Nope, but we've had one given against us that wasn't a penalty (West Ham) at least. That was a pen like. Its understandable it was given but if contact starts outside the box then by the laws of the game it's a free kick. Anyway its more about the fact that these marginal calls tend to go against us, whereas some of our rivals are getting iffy calls in their favour. No that's wrong. It's where the foul/contact ends where the foul is committed. Fair enough, I always assumed it was the other way round. Do you know if this is written down anywhere? Cant find much at all. I've just had a quick look at the laws and I am now more confused as the only reference to giving a penalty when a foul continues into the box is specifically in relation to holding: "If a defender starts holding an attacker outside the penalty area and continues holding inside the penalty area, the referee must award a penalty kick."

Yeah just found that myself, could swear pundits quite often say thew opposite.

Also, when it's a holding of the shirt, who do pundits etc always go on about contact starting outside the box in the case? Laws of the game specifically refer to holding: https://www.fifa.com/mm/document/afdeveloping/refereeing/law_12_fouls_misconduct_en_47379.pdf If a defender starts holding an attacker outside the penalty area and continues holding him inside the penalty area, the referee shall award a penalty kick Not sure if the same applies to tackles, but I would guess so.

Interpolic Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Palace have far better players than we do, and while they got a point, the match stats are certainly similar and comparable. Which you seem unable to understand. They had a few more shots, but that's about it. Reading his post was like watching this That video has elevated that to easily one of the greatest promos ever delivered. Really helped me get my head around what he was saying.

duo Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Clearly Mike Dean thought he hadn't made himself bigger than the match for a while. He's a disgrace to football imo. I think that's a pretty much universal view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 A draw in Brighton v Bournemouth the best result for us? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hard to say, Brighton have 2 more points than Bournemouth so would normally say a Brighton win, but maybe at this stage in the season a draw would be better Also after watching Brighton against us the other day its hard to imagine them beating anyone. Not just based on how defensive they were, obviously that could change at home. But just how fucking shite they were, I can't remember seeing a side pass the ball out of play that many times before. At one point they threw it out of play from a fucking throw in! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Both teams are more comfortable in possession than us, both lack cutting edge just like us.
