The bbc text said he ‘flung himself to the ground, you can’t give a penalty for that. Unbelievable. At other times they are all banging on about ‘contact’. The bloke was hit in the face!

By a swinging arm as well. Football is ****ing stupid because it’s left down to individual judgement and none of it is clear.
Should just have clear set standards and everyone sticks to them.

Jimmy I have to disagree.
I feel there was enough force on the shoulder to hold the attacker back.
Was the attacker going to get it? Maybe not...but he was probably hindered in a yard or two to make that attempt due to that challenge.

Burnley’s first goal came from a corner that should definitely have been given as a goal kick, came off a Burnley player to go behind. They were denied a goal after a lovely header from Wood but the goal kick/corner incident was pretty obvious.
