Quitongo's Left Peg Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 If a striker is bumped in the box, loses balance and misses a chance then the referees don't give a shit. What on earth is the incentive to stay on your feet? Exactly. If Magennis goes down, gets a penalty and we then win the game - then the players will stand to get a win bonus which would come in handy. Oh... Wait...

Quitongo's Left Peg Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Magennis didn't say that though - he said if he feels any contact, light or heavy. So there is contact between the defender and the forward, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 So there is contact between the defender and the forward, yes? In the contact sport that is football, yes. Are you suggesting that any contact should be penalised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quitongo's Left Peg Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 In the contact sport that is football, yes. Are you suggesting that any contact should be penalised? No, but if a defender makes contact with a player in the area then most likely the player has mistimed what they're trying to do. If you take advantage of that, then is there really much of an issue? I might need to listen to the podcast back again, 'cos I'm interested to find out if he did use the word "any". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
