Quoted from gary_elton
The law which states a player cannot impede a goalkeeper releasing the ball was in fashion when I was refereeing. I stopped reffing about 7 years ago... the referee  ( I assume ) didnt blow because he thought the player was only trying to wind Macca up and would eventually let him release the ball.  But the player was a knob-end and didnt . A lesser referee would have given a penalty , but fortunately this one had his mind and eye on what went on and gave the correct decision , very good refereeing. It is dangerous play because the keeper could  a) hurt himself with his kick follow thru on the player , or b) damage the player thru no fault of his own...[  good refereeing and nice to see for a change.



exactly the points we made watching it; don't want our keeper injured in an incident like that; next time maybe he should throw it away rather than push the opponent though....

Was there last night and honestly can't get my head around why there's such an issue about this. It was a nothing incident, I don't think anyone in the ground even considered it being a foul - bar the divvies holding the microphones, clearly. Macca barely even touched the diving illegitimate.

Bizarre situation.

Just seen the incident on YouTube. Oh dear. Absolutely embarassing to see people thinking that was a penalty. Are people actually *that* stupid?

Haha, I wouldn't go as far as calling them stupid but I'm in complete agreement with you that it was a nothing incident. I never gave it another thought until their manager started talking conspiracy theories about the top 3.

On BT Sport, Mark Creighton, Danny Higginbottom and that Clem tool discussed it at half-time and full-time and were all in total agreement that it was a nailed on penalty. So yes they are that stupid.

The BT pundits and that idiot Clem just like to try to make it controversial.  It was nothing and although the ref took his time he got it right.  The only major things he missed in the game were the 2 fouls on LJL in the box which both could have resulted in penalties and the blatant elbow in Disley's neck which should have been a red card, otherwise a decent performance from the ref.

It would have been an awful and severely stupid call to make. These decisions always set precedents,we'd have keepers being blocked by forwards who throw themselves to the ground at the slightest touch. A good ref for me is one who makes the calls in the spirit of the game when required. Blocking the keeper and thus holding up the game is a big negative for the game.
Stupid pundits.

The day that's given as a penalty the game dies in my eyes.

Correct decision by the referee, couldn't care less what some bald blokes who like the sound of their own voice think.

The push on Lenny when he had that chance saved after the 2nd goal was a bigger shout, their defender pushed him the split second he got the shot off..........

The trip on LJL in the area as he turned last night was nailed on penalty.
