Binky Griptite Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I think what I've learned from this is that if a player is falling down he is fair game and thus we should start kicking the sh*t out of anyone lying on the floor as our contact on them wouldn't have been what brought them down and therefore it wouldn't be a foul. Come to think of it I reckon Grant Holt has already worked that out and proved my theory right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaton_Swfc Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Are some on here saying it wasn't a pen for the sake of an argument ? Most blatant stone waller I've seen in a while that one, and we STILL can't get a pen. Pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richowl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 he went down before there was contact. it's there for all to see. We've had some poo poo decisions go against us this season but this isn't one. the ref called it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geriatricowl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Had Maguire not been looking for it, he'd have won the pen. The challenge was coming - he just wouldn't wait for it. Spot on ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark77 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 watch the reply. if you think the same after watching it you need glasses. he was going down before the player made any attempt to get the ball. I can see he's looking for it and is going down already. It doesn't mean it isn't a penalty. It's a poor challenge worthy of a penalty kick and would be given the vast majority of the time. I guarantee penalties will be given this afternoon under similar circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that. What frustrates me is that 95% of the time it would be a penalty. Even the Huddersfield manager admitted so. We are not getting the rub of the green in this part of the game and it's getting a bit stupid now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheff Owl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 As mentioned in another thread.. Maguire is his own worst enemy. He often throws himself in order to get decisions. It was a pen BUT he also tried to be clever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncOwl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 People are forgetting the chance when Drenthe was through (their defence left it to each other) and their keeper caught him in the midriff. He should've gone down but tried to get to the ball. We need to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue n White Rampage Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Nine times out of 10 Maguire dives. Refs now know whats coming he looks for it all the time. but they apply the same logic to kieran lee who is not known for his diving, these football league refs shy away from big decisions. the premier league refs on the other hand are more than happy to get in the papers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheff Owl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Maguire has been booked for simulation before, Burnley for example in the cup and i'm sure there may have been another. If a player has history of it the refs know about it, as i said Maguire doesn't help himself because he tries to force the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncOwl Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Honestly have no idea what that means.Of course you want us to win, but you have to find fault in everything. It was a penalty. You know full well that if the same incident had have happened at the other end, you'd ne saying it was a stonewaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
