The pen was the final straw he had to give something. Sammy on the commentary said the ref won't book him . he never books the captain.

0114 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Easy for Johnson to turn everyone head away from a poor performance and make a real about the referee. Carlos use to do this often. It probably is a very soft penalty, no doubt. Had that been given against us we wouldn’t be happy. However following the penalty awarded against us V Derby, the Murphy incident against Hull and even the Flint star jumps I couldn’t care less if it’s a soft penalty, it’s about time we got something back and Id even go as far as saying it hasn’t “evened out yet”.

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Williams body checking Rhodes as he clipped the ball past him, Rhodes being wrestled to the ground by two defenders, and Nuhiu's coming together with Rowe for the penalty. All clumsy challenges, all would have been a free kick elsewhere on the field, and all leave the referee with a decision to make. How about not being clumsy and naive in your own penalty area and you wouldn't be on the wrong end of what you think is a soft decision? And like others have said, seen penalties week in week out the last few years for similar to ours yesterday, so why is it a big deal and "controversial" when one goes in our favour?

SettleForADraw Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Made me giggle when Weimann (i think) in the first half deliberately handballed to counter attack bang in front of Johnson and two minutes later a Bristol player smashed the ball at one of ours and he was going ape wanting a free kick. What an utter gremlin he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smhouston Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Must admit, thought it was a nailed on pen and still do after seeing the replays. Player grabbed Nuhiu in the box whilst he was running for the ball, why are they surprised? Could have another one against them on Rhodes, most blatant holding down a player. Think if Rhodes tried to make more effort (exaggerate) going for the ball he may have got it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musn't Grumble Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 A penallty all day long for me... It would have been a greater travesty of justice if Bristol City had got something out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jack the Hat Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 It was never a penalty. Wasn’t a foul and was barely in the box. But, as someone else has said, makes up for the derby debacle a couple of weeks ago which ruined my evening. We deserved to win the match and I think Rhodes has a good penalty shout before that any way. Plus I don t care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does barley in the box mean it was in the box? also after watching it from every angle I believe it was a penalty as apart from the bear hug there is contact with the the back of Nuhiu’s legs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Because Bristol City never get an dubious penalties in their favour do they except this season against Hull City, this is Jack Hunt going down like he has been shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spookone Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Have to say I was amazed when the ref blew for a penalty - but we deserve a bit of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t a penalty - big Dave played for that one. But you know what, we deserve that bit of luck. Not being biased but the derby one wasn’t a penalty and on the balance of yesterday’s game, we definitely deserved to win. They didn’t engage in the game and clearly came for a draw.

The only way is S6 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I was doubled up laughing when he gave it. Unbelievable. Then a little bit popped out just before BB ran up to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
