How on earth can this not be a penalty?

Stone wall.
He was fouled in the box.
If that was rugby the Fulham player would have been sent off for a dangerous top-tackle.
The giveaway that it wasn't a penalty is there were no appeals, never mind spontaneous ones, by players just yards from the incident.
Surely the thread title should read as 'Pelanty'
If that happens middle of the pitch it be straight red. Cos it's in the box from a corner refs deem it as acceptable. Shocking.
If that had been a Wolves player they would have set-up a GOV.UK petition.
If that was given as a penalty against us I'd have been disappointed. From a Fulham viewpoint they'd see it as the defender standing his ground as Morrison tried to climb past him (look at Sean grab him around the neck). The fall backwards is a bit dramatic but I don't think there's much in it really...
Deffo a penalty. Morrison should sue him for assault.
Morrison put his arm around the Fulham player's neck and pulled him on to him. Never a 'John Hartson Pelanty'. Mind you I would rather it had been given.
Defender looks at Morrison, Morrison makes a move towards the ball. Morrison's arm comes across defender's neck and defender's arm goes around Morrisons back. Morrison's send hand is around the defender's face.
Defender has to look at Morrison, he needs to know who is in the vicinity as the cross comes in. The coming together is inevitable, but it's not a penalty.
Glad this thread is here. It was the last action of the game and the very last action should have been a penalty. The ref was very poor.
Neil needs to have a word with our players. They should have been going nuts in protest. It looked as if no foul had happened because they didn't complain. OK they might not have the incident but they should have backed up our captain and at the least should have been whinging for the sake of match winning gamesmanship.
1-2 wouldn't have been an unfair scoreline.
