I still like this rule.

Goalkeepers are not permitted to keep possession of the ball in their hands for more than six seconds.

I still like this rule.

mignolet needs to read this

 

[Trusty]

you cant pull the play back and then give a pen

That's the point of advantage..and there was no advantage

 

[The_One]

if remy had gone down with no contact you'd all be calling him a diver

 

[Jokester]

That's the point of advantage..

Yeah because refs have never pulled play back when it turns out there was no advantage. Wait what?

I think the one needs to learn the rules.

 

[Gooner Leroy]

Can some lovely chap please tell me when motd becomes available on iplayer?

 

[stokecity_m]

It's a penalty (and a red card). Thankfully for us the ref doesn't understand the rules

The ref had a woeful game.

 

[Creature]

With regards to the penalty, any of the following could be relevant.

Dangerous play

It is committed with an opponent nearby and prevents the opponent from playing the ball for fear of injury.

The action becomes an offence only when an opponent is adversely affected.

Playing in a dangerous manner involves no physical contact between the players.

Impeding progress

Impeding the progress of an opponent means moving into the path of the opponent to obstruct, block, slow down or force a change of direction by an opponent
when the ball is not within playing distance of either player.

 

[Trusty]

I wouldn't have given a red card personally, but that's only because i would be proper lenient with reds. Constant cheating and serious dangerous play would be red for me..

THis is from today

lukaku had to change his direction due to Adrian diving at his feet.

If lukaku had missed that goal would you all be saying that's a penalty??

because its no different to butland

the ball was in playing distance of butland therefore that doesn't apply

Also butland didn't commit a dangerous act, he dived at remys feet that's what goalkeepers are there to do

Sturridge vs vidic

http://media.balls.ie/uploads/2014/03/SlightAjarAnhinga.gif

vidic makes no contact and was sent off

hows that any different to remy and butland?

everyone condemned Sturridge for diving and said it wasn't a penalty

 

[Jokester]

There's a difference between a dive and trying to hurdle a bad tackle and losing your footing.

 

[Trusty]

Ref's make mistakes all the time. We have the fortunate advantage of seeing it several times on a camera screen from different angles.

 

[The_One]

There's a difference between a dive and trying to hurdle a bad tackle and losing your footing.

as I said

if remy had gone to ground would you be screaming for a penalty????

is this a penalty if lukaku misses?

[Trusty]

Adrian quite clearly didn't impede him that much. You've got to use your common sense..

 

[Jokester]

Just being obtuse now, you've been shown the actual rule in the FA rule book that allows refs to give fouls for non contact fouls.

 

[McBain]

Why would that be a penalty? Adrian hasn't impeded him in anyway, he doesn't even break stride.

Completely different situations, I mean, clutch at straws more.

That's a naughty challenge on Payet from Mccarthy ... he's lucky to get away with that.
