really pleased that rochdale got the replay.

that kind of cheating boils my blood.

Can't believe I just jumped up celebrating a Rochdale goal as much as I would a Burnley one.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:54 pm

At least they'll get a good payday.
Well played, Rochdale!

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:55 pm

The replay'll pay for their new pitch.

That' a valid opinion, but it certainly wasn't a penalty either. He was either diving or falling over before he made contact with the Rochdale man's leg.

pureclaret · Post by **pureclaret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:56 pm

dive! he needs to be found guilty and banned for 6 games and THS have 4 pts taken off them for the sake of football and England team. I know none of this can happen but the guy goes down to easy

Foulthrow · Post by **Foulthrow** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:57 pm

It was always going to be a penalty but it was still a dive.

Stayingup · Post by **Stayingup** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:58 pm

Well done Rochdale. Has All I got wings.

yTib · Post by **yTib** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:58 pm

the pundits all agree it was a penalty.

football is truly ******* lost.

Foulthrow · Post by **Foulthrow** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:58 pm

Surely Tottenham have an advantage though with a premier league ref being used? If he gives a bad decision against Rochdale he’ll never ref them again, whereas he’s likely to referee spuds numerous times.

MrVmax · Post by **MrVmax** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:59 pm

Sorry very rarely post, but that is a nailed on penalty, the lads leg comes right across him. I would be fuming if we didn't get that, nearly as bad as the one we didn't get against Huddersfield. I will say I'm dele fan and have a soft spot for spurs but all day long for me. Very impressed with Rochdale, worked their socks off

Claret · Post by **Claret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:01 pm

That could have been a foul, it might not. We’ll never know for sure because Alli exaggerated/dived/cheated.
The ref should be allowed to wave play on, even for a blatant foul, if the attacker exaggerates in any way

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:01 pm

Penalty for me as much as I wanted to scream dive.

Brilliant comeback though from Rochdale.

CharlieinNewMexico · Post by **CharlieinNewMexico** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:03 pm

Never a penalty. Alli initiated the contact then threw himself 10 ft in the air. Madley couldn't get his whistle blown fast enough.

Foulthrow · Post by **Foulthrow** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:03 pm

Loved the way that Danny Murphy had to quickly pivot from his patronising ‘plucky old Rochdale’ line when they equalised.

NL Claret · Post by **NL Claret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:04 pm

Thought it was a penalty and also thought Rochdale could have had a penalty. There was enough "contact " , a coming together according to Danny Murphy. More genuine contact than the Ramsey pen perhaps going down naturally or he plays for Rochdale means it's a coming together.

yTib · Post by **yTib** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:06 pm

i would honestly ******* shoot anyone who says 'contact' in the context of penalties.

just part of the modern lexicon that justifies cheating.

sickening.

Stalbansclaret · Post by **Stalbansclaret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:07 pm

Never a penalty. Yet another case of diving into a defender's leg and "winning" a penalty.

Lifted from the deleted thread. Agree with Claret - need to remove exaggeration.

UTC!

Its a dive. If it was on tarmac in a playground, he wouldn't throw himself into the air and onto the ground. If there is a fear you are going to take a layer of skin off your face and legs by falling over, you don't deliberately stop your leg moving forwards when you feel someone touch it, you try and stay on your feet at all costs. Thats the measure of whether its a dive.

Alli is dead clever. Just like Long at TM the Rochdale player goes for the ball with the wrong leg, misses it. & sticks his hip/thigh out and instead of sidestepping, Alli goes over it so the ref has to give it.

These top players are really good at this stuff.

Bobzuruncle · Post by **Bobzuruncle** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:12 pm

when Alli came on I put a small bet on next goal being a penalty

nice photo.

shows that alli is well on his theatrical way down before the dreaded 'contact'.

what upsets me more than the cheat are the suckers that fall for it.

Well done Rochdale, as a Southern Claret of some 60 years, now living in Rochdale, I am happy for them. I have a soft spot for them since reading the book " Kicking in the Wind" with a lot of Burnley connections. In this respect, with our new found wealth, would it be possible to have some kind of " professional relationship" with Rochdale to perhaps financially sponsor them but also tap into their youth development system for mutual benefit or are there rules against this ?

gsyclaret · Post by **gsyclaret** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:27 pm

I am only going to say alli is the biggest cheat in football

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:30 pm

Its just cheating isn't it. They try to make it look real, but it's cheating.

Getting properly tired of it to be honest.

Dele Alli is the worst of them. He goes down in the box when looked at, but just look at his face and you know he wouldn't go down like that in a scrap, and you KNOW he would happily break someones leg on purpose in a `tackle`. For all his ability, i'd be happy if he never played for England again, and neither would I be happy if he ended up here.

The most amazing thing is how refs continue to get fooled! Everyone said Alli was going to go down for a pen and he did and he still got fooled.

Txtd a mate there today this would happen when I saw him come on. And viola
Can't believe it was given.
Tbh dale should have had a pen in the first half when the defender cradled the ball on the floor..

Yes but will Dale get a 1-1 draw at Wembley.

CharlieinNewMexico · Post by **CharlieinNewMexico** » Sun Feb 18, 2018 6:46 pm

That one where the Spurs defender barged into the back of the Rochdale striker in the first half (which I thought was just 6s and half dozens) if that had been the other way round the refs arm would have had whiplash it would have moved so fast
