The big question is, how did referee Thomas Bramall not give the spot-kick in the first place?
He was in the perfect position and looking right at the incident.
"You;re not fit to referee," is the chant from the home fans.

[Mase]

Spent 20 minutes trying to find out how they could get away with not giving it.

How's the ref not seen it, he's looking right at it. Bent cunt

[CTID Hants]

That ref is a joke couldn’t spot that from 5 yards away

Tells you all you need to know about him.

Bernardo literally explaining to ref the rules on grabbing twice.

[nottsblue]

Better since the goal. Unlucky Reijnders good shot cleared off the line

[Mase]

This Max lad looks comfortable

[sheblue]

We just need to win this, doesn't matter how. And to do that we 100% need another goal.
Ide get cherki on for foden who hasn't been great.

[Sparklehorse]

Rodri for Bernie please, Foden wide

Phil has been lacklustre for the last couple games before today and Elring too being honest.

Defo bring Cherki on.

[stevefromdonny]

The refs just don't want to ref games now, if they miss something they know that var will come to there rescue but they are the 1s who should give the foul. They are that shit scared of getting it wrong

[Mase]

Spot on. If we manage to win this it will be a very good win

[gmercer1]

How the fuck can you miss that

[Nick]

Another blatant cunt bent ref

Ake getting burned. High line risky

[nottsblue]

Oh Bernie

Should have buried that

[Sideshow Bob]

bernardo has to go ffs

[gmercer1]

Tell you what I like about this young kid at the back he loves to pass the ball forward instead of backwards and sideways

[Mase]

Tell you what I like about this young kid at the back he loves to pass the ball forward instead of backwards and sideways

I noticed that. He looks very comfortable on the ball

Needs coached out of him sharpish

[PeterParker]

This Max lad looks comfortable

He is playing really good.

[Mase]

That blonde cunt in their defense is a proper snide dick head

[CTID Hants]

Hecke cunt about time he got booked
