This would explain it surely. Essentially he's spotted encroachment from a newcastle player because a burton player is whinging about it, but has decided to ignore the encroachment from half the burton team including the player stood in front of him complaining.

 

Very odd there isn't a line in there for "both teams encroaching" mind.

How does that explain it?

 

Because I didn't read the table properly that's why :lol:

Sounds like the free-kick was taken from where Gayle is in that photo.

 

There was no foul or feigning by Ritchie....the ref has made a complete arse of it and awarded a free kick instead of a retake!!

Pretty stupid to encroach in the first, let alone being that far inside. Just asking the pen to be disallowed. Really dumb.

 

Doesn't excuse the horrific decision by the ref.

 

Good job Shola was on pens back in the day, because it seems like the kind of nonsensical idiocy he would have been capable of.
