If it's a red card not allowed to give a free kick or penalty. Laws of the game

This is either masterful angling or galactic standard 4uckwittery.

Surely the bigger question is what the f was Pope doing in their box in the last five minutes when we’re 2-1 up???

Not everyone knows the laws of the game like you rick or had your view possibly,from the vantage point of the jmac lower hadn't a clue what happened.but all goals were good uns,especially the pass to Barnes and his goal.

Because they haven't introduced that rule yet - maybe next season.

It wasn’t a penalty because Williams committed the foul against us, in “our” penalty box

If we’d had been attacking “their” goal and then if Williams had committed the same foul in “their” penalty box....then it would have been a penalty to us....

Nice one for clearing that one up,i was scratching my head at the lack of a penalty at the time.
Do you know why we played in our blue kit today?

It was sarcasm. Never mind.

If you go off the venomous Barnes hating sandal wearers on here, it's because Barnes cheated and dived.

It was a penalty for Williams so,off he went.

I began reading this thread and thought it was funny. Everybody was taking it as a joke, but I figured someone would spoil it as they usually do, and get all serious.

Congratulations, it was you!

boiledclaret · Post by **boiledclaret** » Sun Mar 04, 2018 8:24 am

Maybe the OP is a student of social engineering and was trying out his first assignment.

It WAS a penalty and it needs to be discussed on Question Time.

2 Bee Holed · Post by **2 Bee Holed** » Sun Mar 04, 2018 8:45 am

The OP clearly doesn't know about the F.A.'s experiment.
So it is only fair to tell him.
The F.A. are trying to find out how high a team can finish at the end of the season,
without that team ever having been awarded a penalty. Never mind actually putting the penalty away.
I have stopped even shouting for one, so have the team.
Most of us have worked out what the F.A. are up to.
Does that explain to you, why he wasn't sent off?

pureclaret · Post by **pureclaret** » Sun Mar 04, 2018 9:05 am

Good to know there are more people who wouldn’t stand by and let everyone take the p out of someone

Having watched it again I now see why it wasnt a penalty.
An elementary error on my part

Below is how I scored on rate the ref. I now realise that I missed an obvious howler and now remark accordingly.

A 23 .......0
B 24........24
C 22........22
D 25........25

Conspiracy theorist proven correct. So blatant a mistake we couldn't believe it and we're stunned into accepting it. That now replaced by anger.
