Not handball then. The only offence is deliberate handball.

I am delighted to see us win via dodgyness - after the amount of **** we have put up with this season against Arsenal, it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.

Leicester have always been a team of diving wrong un's anyway, all is fair in love and staying up xxx

Definitely NOT handball as clearly not intentional. Perfectly good goal.

As for the penalty not given in the first half... that's another story.

Leicester can have no complaints. We really ought to have won a lot more comfortably with Vokes' perfectly good goal sealing the victory instead of clinching it.

Great performance and we were by far the better team. Ranieri and Leicester can have no complaints.

This board would erupt Rowls if that was scored against us - e.g. Arsenal

Should have had a peno for the push on MK so it should have been two.

Not intentional but definitely brought the ball under control for him, would be ****** if it happened to us (it has already and we all were)

Bout time we got some luck though.

Should have had a pen, played brilliantly and fully deserved the win but disappointed Vokes needed to cheat Henry style to win it.

I thought Dyche instilled a certain honesty in our play that was sadly missing and let us down at the end of the match tonight.

On a brighter note though how good did Barton and Hendricks look together......Dean who???

And we haven't even mentioned to the two penalties Gray should have been awarded. Just because a player doesn't cheat and throw himself to the ground should not prevent the referee from awarding a penalty.

TWICE Andre Gray continued despite being fouled in the penalty area. The referee lacked the backbone to award the decisions.

We should have had at least two penalties tonight, possibly a third. Leicester can have no complaints.

Also, it was not deliberate. An exploding board is not the same thing as a legitimate hand ball.

clear handball but not as clear as the push on Keano - about time we had an ounce of luck

Intentional for me. No goal. But foul in first half on Keane was blatant pen so it balanced out.

Got this quote from BBC live feed...
from Karmadrome: "This is the first and only time anyone will ever say this: Sam Vokes really reminded me of Thierry Henry tonight".

Made me laugh! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I couldn't care less if Vokes picked up the ball and ran like Jonah Lomu.

Justice was done
The claret won
I couldn't give a fuchs
The clarets are staying up

Did the ref give a free kick ? No ! Therefore, not handball !!!

Probably the ONLY decision Mike Dean got right tonight !!!
