Not nice to see our centre backs pulled all over the park by the simplest of runs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete the Jakey Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Can someone explain to me why the ball ricocheting off Hanlon's arm and out for a corner wasnt a handball and penalty? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the ball was going harmlessly out for a corner anyway? I could see an argument for a penalty if there'd been any danger behind him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA: It wasnt going out for a corner until it hit his arm and Loturi was closing him down.

I have no idea what a handball is any more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what a handball is any more. Yeah me neither. Loturi having just been yellow carded stuck his hand up and seemed to flap at the ball near the half way line too, yet also went unpunished. I'm casting my mind back to last season vs Celtic the ball got crossed into the box and through a melee of players brushed against Baldwins upper arm (or Iac, cant mind) and penalty was given. Some explanation from refs would be helpful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His arms were right in front of his body and close in. Never a penalty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So not in an unnatural position is that the reprieve? I'm not complaining, just looking for explanation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt think it was ever in doubt that it was a corner, was a bit surprised that so many County players thought it was a penalty. The law changed in 2019, and if a ball comes off your foot (like last night) then there is much more leeway given - and its generally not a penalty. Theres a vid here, the relevant bit is at about the minute mark. https://www.premierleague.com/news/1292424 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The example given in that video is very similar to last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty-RCFC Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Insane what happens when you get your best attacking players on the pitch together. Same amount of goals in our last 2 games than the other 8 before them. Just need to find a way to get Turner and Dhanda in the same team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
