Loughborough Ram Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Watching SKY it's easy to see that football is eventually going to die. Whatever her name is, Jamie Mackie and Cowley 1 or 2 discussing tonight's penalty, said its a hard one to call, justifying the player cheating by saying White stuck his leg out so minimal if any contact was enough to dive, and praising the ref for giving a positive decision. THE GAME IS DYING, and this mealy mouthed approval is just helping it on his way. The Plymouth guy dived, they beat us because they cheated and that is apparently OK.

I guess you'd be outraged if you went out for the day leaving your front door open and came back to find someone had helped themselves to your personal possessions.

Loughborough Ram Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 He didn't fall over his keg, there was no contact, sky said as much, he just dived. It's only recently that simulation was punishable offence but it seems that its something to celebrate these days The ref apologised to Corey Smith saying that he may have got it wrong for f*cks sake, what f*ckin use is that?

Seaside Ram Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Agreed. Once again the cheating Ref couldn’t give the penalty quick enough . Most penalties against in EFL . Surely the blind faith , head in the clouds brigade who don’t agree that we get unfairly officiated can’t defend it anymore. Time for the Allez Allez song to be replaced with RUCK THE EFL on loop .

Mr Tibbs Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 What are we giving him the benefit of the doubt for? Was he stopped in his tracks? Obstructed in any way? The answer is no. There's no contact from that "dangling leg" that would make a human being go down like that. It's pure simulation. His knee's have given way from potential brushing of his toe? That's even if there's any contact at all. I'm not normally that bothered with refs and dodgy decisions but that one's just pathetic. It's a dive, there's not a foul there - let's not beat around the bush. Ellafella, SKRam, Inverurie Ram and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the replay about 5 times and struggled to see any contact tbh. If you can't see contact after a replay or 2 there's nowhere near enough to justify a penalty.

Loughborough Ram Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 If anybodys got the time, it would be interesting to see how many points we've gained from bad decisions this season against how many points we've lost I think there would be a big disparity Inverurie Ram and Ellafella 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally really enjoy reading your posts but there was no contact at all. Granted we have the hindsight of replays but that was a dive all day long.
