Not totally convinced it was a penalty Mr Moore?

About as clear cut as they come for me.

I wasn't at the game and only have the highlights to go by but if i was a Torquay fan from that 1 viewing I'd be very upset. First half it looked like a penalty to them, ref obviously was close enough to see better than I could on the camera though. Also our penalty, dare I say if I was ref I'd have given them a free kick! If you look closely he's tripped by the other town player which makes him lose his balance to then give away the penalty.
Not complaining at all though! 3 points and 1 step closer to Wembley, West ham, Old Trafford, Ashton Gate, molineaux, millennium stadium.. 👀

It's one of them weird ones, it is a penalty because he gets tripped but he didn't have the ball under control so thankfully it was all a bit desperate in there and the defender caught Amos.

Yeah was a clear pen at the end. Video makes it less clear but on the day from the view I had it was an easy decision for the ref.

I was surprised Little was done for diving for their penalty shout in the first half but I couldn’t see it that well and the highlights don’t clear it up. Seems obvious it was the right call though from the reaction of their players.

Been said already but the ref was decent on Saturday again. I’m not one of these that buys in to bias conspiracy theories but I just hope to see the ref make the right calls on the day regardless of which way they go. Stockport ref was good as well so that’s two home games in a row. Unbelievable.

On the day from the upper I thought you idiot Waterfall as looked a clear pen for Torquay but highlights to me show he threw himself in the air before he got to Waterfalls slide had he just stayed on his feet for another second Waterfall would have made contact with the ball already out of play then who knows what the decision would be.

Tell tale sign for me is that neither of the Torquay players involved in the respective penalty incidents made any complaints to the referee nor did any of their teammates. Think Lukeo has spent too much time in Devon and it’s affecting his judgement!!!

You mad? Waterfall doesn’t even make contact with him.
