    You can see him rolling his shoulders , it's an unnatural movement

    If you get tripped it's an instinctive fall

    Dive

    No penalty

    It did look like there was a tug on his shirt though

    I missed the shirt pull, not quite enough to pull him down to the ground, so deffo looking for the pen, but yes, he did pull his shirt, yes its a pen

    But he wasn't tripped, he was pulled back

    It's a theatrical fall but Goutas definitely pulls his shirt

    He's shot himself in the foot

    His reaction to what may have been a shirt pull has told the ref he was trying to con him

    Naughty boy

    Well done ref

    Trip or pull .....it doesn't matter .....his unnatural reaction to try and get the penalty made the refs mind up


    Well done ref

    I think feck him , he was trying to gain an advantage , if he had fell without egging it he would probably have got the pen

    Tough luck Wednesday this happens

    Commentator on Radio Wales thought it should have been a pelanty kick, Ratcliffe thought not.

    Agree he did get his shirt tugged slightly but, the question is, was it enough to go down and get a pelanty?
    I don't think so personally and we have seen this decision from referee's, quite rightly IMO, a few times recently.

    The striker could have brushed that off and scored.
    Got what he deserved, feck all.

    I thought it was against the rules to pull someone's shirt?

    Re: Todays Talking Point

    Wasn't there another penalty claim just before or just after that one?
    Any videos of that one?

    Just a quick reminder that there are no rules in football, just laws
    First thing they taught us when I did a refs course years ago

    It is but when you go all Premier league and fall over like a ponce it has a tendency to sometimes backfire

    concerned about the atrocious spelling in this thread!

    Re: Todays Talking Point

    Pelanty I take as a joke......Ones that crop up time and time again in ALL message boards/newspaper comments etc are
    "should of..." instead of "should have..."
    "he was beat at his near post (or wherever)...instead of "beaten..."

    Could have been given, seen some given, seen plenty that haven’t.

    Made the most of it but shirt pull so penalty.

    That's how I see it. Whenever I see a contentious decision that goes for or against us, I tend to think how I'd feel if it happened to the opposite side. If, for example, we get a dodgy penalty, how would I feel if we had conceded one like that?

    If that had happened to us at the CCS, where one of our players had had their shirt pulled, even if the fall was a little theatrical, I'd have been raging had we not had a penalty and I suspect most of us would have felt the same.

    If the referee blew up every time a shirt got pulled there wouldn't be much football at all on show.

    This was one of those arbitrary decisions, some will be given, some won't.
    Has always been that way and always will be.
