It's a stupid and naive notion because it wasn't anywhere else on the pitch, it was in the box and if you've been watching the sport for longer than 5 minutes, you should know that comes with it's own set of rules. Rightly or wrongly doesn't matter, this is the reality.

Second, did it affect the resulting attack in any way? No. Incidental.

If a player gets his shot away and gets fouled after, how many times do we see a penalty for that? Never? Different set of rules.

So, as events that don't change the course of play, are off-the-ball fouls in the box penalties or not?

I am not predicting the future here, I am stating what actually happens. Nor am I saying it's right or wrong that they do so, again I am just stating what ACTUALLY happens in games.

Do you fucking people actually watch this sport?

Yeah, that's not a great comeback.

I'm going to give you an opportunity to think about a better one and get back to me.

So Slim are you saying Dean and the fuckwit of a lino made the right decision and it is ok for a keeper to come off his line with an outstretched leg to take out an opposition player ?

Just wondering ?

Nope, I think it should be a penalty. In fact I think Dean was going to give the penalty and only gave the yellow for diving because blew his whistle and realized the corner he'd backed himself into.

Nope. He doesn't blow the whistle for ages. Watch the footage. He stares at the incident, he allows the play to continue and doesn't follow it. He makes his linesman make the decision and then he blows.

In fact, it is almost every single game these days.

Discussing the reasons why we got fucked over each time is all well and good but the biggest issue is the fact that it is getting more common year on year to the point that we are amazed if we're fucked over in one single game.

Add that to the long line of controversial decisions that the rags in particular have benefited from this season and it's astounding.

Basically, if the laws of the game had been applied properly and across the board, we'd be four points behind Chelsea in second and at least 10 points ahead of the rags.

Officials will yet again play a huge part in the outcome of the premier league.

Isn't that a fun fact.

The beautiful game

That's the one thing that amazes me in all this.
The one thing the anti-conspiracy theorists have in their favour.
How it all hasn't come out in the wash yet is incredible. I do get the feeling if things don't change and become more equitable
soon though, it will become increasingly difficult to keep a lid on things.
FIFA
UEFA
now the FA are under attack.
I do think somebody with serious power may be stirring things in their own subtle way.
