Fulham's thoughts on the FA investigation: Coventry striker

Let's be honest , Fulham will have won penalties before from blatant dives , its basically football 101 in the box , anticipate contact and go down ..

The ref gave it , whatever happens to godden from here happens , we have 3 other strikers to cover for now .

+3 points is all that matters

Are you forgetting Tavares

 

[Londonccfcfan]

There was contact on that one though.

The defence for Godden is pretty straightforward imo. He never appealed for a penalty, he saw the leg come out, anticipated contact & avoided it, fearing risk of injury.

Brilliant.

Also how can you do someone for retrospective simulatiion. Ridiculous. Looked a nail on penalty from where we were sat.

And tavares sorry

So if he's caught he gets booked, but if he doesn't 2 game ban. That can't be right.

Yes we had the benefit, but as has been pointed out not only the Luton pen that want but in the same fulham game their opener gets turned over

 

[robbiethemole]

Just a feckin joke, Godden never asked for it, got up to play on, ref was directly in line with it, and lino both gave it so how does Godden get done for their decision. Mitrovic was strangling McFadz and pushing him off balance so will that be looked at as violent conduct? I don't bloody think so. Fulham expected to romp home and can't take a fucking over, so go crying to FA.

Of course it's right. The 2 game ban is for actually conning the ref into giving us a penalty, unlike a real time yellow for attempting to con him and failing. Are the rules applied consistently and fairly? No. But we won, the points are ours and we have plenty of time to focus on Blackburn without Godden.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

I think the Ref gave it because of intent and there was intent to bring Godden down

 

[robbiethemole]

Perhaps they should ASK the ref why he gave it?? that would clear everything up.

 

[Deleted member 9744]

What about Adebayo (or whatever he's called), when he threw himself with a swan dive into our penalty area from a yard outside? Not being funny, but how many of these have been shown on the box, yet nothing done. I don't mind them doing it, provided they are consistent about it.

Totally different. He was running into the box. I think this is the right decision but they need to be consistent and tackle all of these incidents where players have clearly dived. Obviously I was pleased we got the penalty but it was clearly cheating. Adebayo wasn't cheating. The ref just got that one wrong.

Agreed. Literally their word against his isn’t it? It’s not like some dives where there was literally no attempt for contact either - he can justifiably say he saw the leg come out and jumped to avoid it

 

[Grendel]

well he wouldn’t avoid it he’d make sure he made contact with it as the ball was away from goal

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I don’t get why he could face suspension when if it were deemed a dive at the time he’d just have a booking?

 

[procdoc]

One Fulham fan is saying the game should be replayed

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

It’s quite possible to dive without appealing for it. In fact that probably helped his cause

 

[Liquid Gold]

Fine, take it on the chin and move on.

I hope the club has someone going through the footage of all of our upcoming opponents and submitting to the FA all season from now on then.

Apparently this is only the 4th time this has happened. Watch match of the day and there are twice as many dives like this a week. The inconsistency of it all is a joke.

 

[Liquid Gold]

This is the rule BTW

E3

E3.1 A Participant shall at all times act in the best interests of the game and shall not act in any manner which is improper or brings the game into disrepute or use any one, or a combination of, violent conduct, serious foul play, threatening, abusive, indecent or insulting words or behaviour.

E3.2 A breach of Rule E3.1 is an “Aggravated Breach” where it includes a reference, whether express or implied, to any one or more of the following :- ethnic origin, colour, race, nationality, religion or belief, gender, gender reassignment, sexual orientation or disability.

E3.3 Where an Aggravated Breach of Rule E3.1 is committed in youth football by a Player aged under 12, no disciplinary charge will be brought. In such cases, the Player will be subject to an education programme, the details of which will be provided to the Player by The Association.

E3.4 Where two or more Participants from a Club commit any Aggravated Breach of Rule E3.1 in any twelve month period, regardless of whether any such breach falls within sub-paragraph E3.4, the Club itself will be liable to a sanction imposed by a Regulatory Commission.

I assume they are charging him for E3.1 so the award of the penalty has nothing to do with it. We should have a case about a dozen incidents this season then.

 

[mds]

It looked a pen live, replays showed it was a dive, take the punishment and move on, what else you going to do? Its only two games and not like we havnt looked more than capable without him.

Fulham's thoughts on the FA investigation: Coventry striker

Fuck em. Mitrovic pushing Fadz four yards to force the og header balances it out
If the game ended 2-1 and Goddens penalty won the game they may have reason to be bitching but it didnt really have any effect on the end result. They got comfortably beaten and got made to look like an average Championship side in the process.

 

[Sick Boy]

Charged by the FA

That will please some of the posters on this thread then.

How many of those 4 are household names playing for big clubs?
It stinks of double standards and if we feel any injustice now god help us all if we get to the premier league because it’ll be 10 times worse.

It wouldn’t because they use VAR.

It does and will help a bit but it still isn’t always used properly and the big clubs still seem to get the rub of the green with it.

I see your point, a bit like England v Denmark.

So what really. Just raise a middle finger up at them and keep winning regardless.

 

[Nick]

Why wasn't the Luton one reported?
Why wasn't JCH reported?

We should be on it every week with the video evidence.

 

[Yorkshire SB]

Inconsistent application, but it was a dive and deserves the ban. Albeit I’m still buying Le God a pint.

 

[Nick]

Why didn't the Lino spot it and will he be banned?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

They were conned Nick - come on get on message. They didn’t make a mistake, godden conned them and as he’s such a naughty boy he deserves to miss 2 games just as he’s got in the team

 

[jordan210]

Funny how when you watch sky for a prem game they often praise a forward if a defender hangs a leg out and looks for contact.

I hope from now on anything controversial in a Sky Championship game the club report.

Yes It wasn't a pen. But its hardly like Godden screamed at the ref for it. Iv seen much worse dives given with no implications after the match.

 

[The Philosopher]

I think the bigger issue is if MG gets banned, the next time he gets fouled in the box then a ref is going to be less likely to award it.

He’s going to have to stay on his feet even if clattered and keep going if he can.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Why should he get a ban rather than a retrospective booking?

Apparently it's because the Linesman who was stood yards away wasn't paying enough attention.
