Second one def onside, first benefit of doubt to defence. Has RCC ever got close to saving a penalty?

Why are people so confident that we would win the play-offs if we did finish top 6? We can't score for shit. None of the recent defensive combinations can defend for shit. Our record in one-off knock-out matches this season has been shit.

Git! You beat me to it!!!

If he was in the D, it gives him an unfair advantage over the defending side, who might otherwise have been able to reach the sideways tap (or any rebound, under other circumstances) before him. That's the reason for the 10 yard rule for everyone other than the penalty taker (and the goalkeeper...

"This group"? Are you Pressley in disguise???

But the view that the opinion is not valid to be held by a woman broadcaster is obnoxious in the extreme. Hope they may get outed on the Last Leg on Friday.

Including here, in fact!

A couple of choice examples:- This is why women should stay in the kitchen and keep their mouth's shut or around my cock Forest Echo News (whoever they are): And ladies and gentlemen, this is why we don't hire any females unless we need our dicks sucked or our food cooked...

In a slightly tangential move related to this story, has anyone seen the utter misogynistic filth that has been directed at BTSport and 5 Live's Lynsey Hipgrave on Twitter, simply for deeming to make comment on this penalty? There are some f**king cavemen in this world.

... and therefore should not have stood, as Suarez can be seen inside the D before the initial kick!!!!

Yes in a shoot-out, the ball is dead the moment it is kicked, hence no rebounds off keeper or post are allowed.

As other threads have been talking about interpretation of the Laws of the game, I'll chuck in that this should have been re-taken because Suarez was inside the D when Messi kicked the ball. A TV ref review of all angles should have disallowed that!! Sorry!

That might be the event I am referring to in my earlier post.

I think the introduction of goal-line technology (which was held up for years by Blatter et al for slowing the game down too much) has shown that these things can be of great benefit to the game. I wouldn't want to see it become like NFL, which sometimes gets stopped on every insignificant play...

I disagree with the age-old argument that having a review system like in rugby union would cause too much interruption to the game. As an example, there was a match a few weeks back (was it Sheff U v Manure in the Cup?) where the ball had clearly gone over the goal line before being crossed for...

"Left arm spreading like a wing"? Have you ever watched an athlete/sportsperson in motion? What about it being simply the way he usually holds his arms when he runs, or makes challenges, or (perish the thought) tries to keep his balance? You simply cannot insist that everyone runs around the...

We were lucky to have had him at all, such is the competition to get talented youngsters into academies these days. There is a danger that Norwich will get relegated and will not have the resource to bring him on as his potential deserves ... and to bring us a few bob more. It would be...

Do we assume it is the Trialist in the U21 side being watched by TM?

Point taken, Tony, but could the same not be said for the injuries and suspensions (and curious subbings) we are now suffering?

I seem to recall Burge saving quite a few last season. Maybe a 119th minute sub????
