Toon No9 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 15 minutes ago, The Prophet said: "Cancelo was in possession of the ball" is the nonsensical party line. So then it's ok to foul any player inside the box who doesn't have possession of the ball? Never heard or seen that before...!!! Penaltys are often given when a corner comes in and a player hold/drag another player even though he's never gonna get the ball. What's the difference??? ...and why don't they even VAR-check this situation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Similar to Tierney at Spurs. He doesn't give a blatant penalty because he thinks Jota slows down to buy the foul. They're just making it up as they go along and there's zero accountability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penalty shout is borderline obscene. Did it actually go to VAR? If not then why not? If so then the most blatant penalty on record. Commentators, who usually hate us, screamed penalty. Pundits at half time did too but quickly glossed over it. All feels like a fix up after the previous games. definitley an agenda against. game after game since the start of the season dodgy as fuck decisions.

Lush Vlad Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Thought we played well for good portions of the game. But ultimately, we have gifted yet another goal to the opposition because of shit, individual errors. We're plenty shit enough as it is and will usually lose to teams like this (well, most the league this season), without basically having a -1 or -2 handicap every game. Due to us letting the other team have a goal or two for free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Still can’t get over that penalty decision like. Was an unbelievable call (or lack of), and their reasoning was insane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 On the penalty, whatever there is in the letter of the law, I wasn't surprised when it wasn't given. Fraser never had possession of the ball, and wouldn't have got it even if the keeper hadn't clattered him. A lot of decisions are based on convention rather than a literal interpretation of the law, and pens just don't get given in that situation. Rightly or wrongly.

Does it not rule out ever getting a penalty for pushing someone over at a corner? Didn't have the ball guv. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
