Guest Deleted member Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Well, I've had it running backwards and forwards on Sky Plus now for the last 5 mins and I still can't see a push - Helan had his hands by his side. Thats also how I saw it from the Kop. I think in peoples (understandable) desperation to criticise following our awful tactical change at half time - they are desperate to justify it by being unfair about the penalty. It wasn't a penalty in anyones eyes other than the linesman - which is why the referee didnt give it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppers Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Sure but to sit back and defend a one goal lead against that side is criminal. We invited them to attack which gives an opportunity for penalties, lucky goals and errors from defenders. Poor tactics costs us 2 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Don't let the truth get in the way of a good old scapegoating grandad. It was clearly dj's fault, all the players are sh!t and milan would rather see us be relegated than spend £1 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I was on my way to the loo and I saw the push, sorry but it was a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 The way I saw it his arm went into the players back, he went down easily,but players shouldn't let themselves get into this position. Truth is second half we were poor and the game should have been over. Football is about passion and can be divisive. Still think it w a push though.

Bring Back Beni Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I was bang on line in the north with bywaters pull down and that was a defo pen. Antionio shud have slotted it away though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'm on the kop and my eyes are old and I couldn't tell if Antonio should have had a pen or not. I do think he goes down easily when if he carried on he could maybe score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 My initial thought were that is was a penalty. Another 10 minutes and the ref would have evened it up. And it was obviously the linesman that gave it, not the ref. Sitting back after 60 minutes cost us that game, not the referee. 2 poor teams that will both finish in the bottom 6, and will only survive with clever recruitment in the loan window.

Halfway-owl Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Antonio's was a nailed on penalty but he really should have slotted it past Bywater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semedo's ferret Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Sat up in the clouds so my view wasn't brilliant, but I said penalty the second Helan touched him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night King Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 It looked clumsy from where I was and I could see why the Lino gave it. They had a stone wall penalty turned down earlier too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Bach Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Never a penalty. Sorry but I am struggling to see past the decision. Only one way Millwall were going to score and boy, did they have our pants down. Should have been three points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharrowowl Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I haven't seen either but I am confident neither were penalties from the descriptions on here. 9 out of 10 pens nowadays are players going down at the slightest opportunity and duping gullible refs.

Bluesteel Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 The penalty is the crux of it because if we'd won People would've grumbled a little but Jones would've been vindicated for seeing the game out. I thought that the tactical change was partly enforced at HT with Buxton coming off but taking Nuhiu off made no sense and invited pressure. I'm just sick of the officials now, in every game other than the burnley one we have had odd officiating. I'm starting to wonder whether DJs complaining has made referees feel even less inclined to give us anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davet30 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Re Penalties .. what about the Antonio Bywater at the other end? What did that look like on Sky? Ref just gave us a corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Was a pen for me but if Attwell is giving them we needed 2 pens us sens at other end on Antonio. Exactly they're either all pens or none of them are. The difference being the opinions of two separate linesmen It looked clumsy from where I was and I could see why the Lino gave it. They had a stone wall penalty turned down earlier too. Wasnt their player already offside for that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I was bang on line in the north with bywaters pull down and that was a defo pen. Antionio shud have slotted it away though I thought Antonio would've taken that easily. The guy seems totally low on confidence after the QPR howler.
