I can't even remember the last time one of our players dived and won a penalty.
Don’t knowVAR is based on some weird formula calculation based on gate receipts isn't it?
Does anyone remember the Robbie Fowler penalty incident?
He fell over in the box and was awarded a penalty, he tried to get the ref to change his mind without success.
sometimes players just slip or fall over when in full flight going up against an opposition player, who may or may not be in close enough proximity to affect the situation.Robbie Fowler recalls day he refused a penalty at Arsenal on 18th birthday of famous 'fair play' incident
I didn't miss the spot-kick on purpose but I got Jason McAteer his first Reds goalwww.liverpoolecho.co.uk
I haven't got an opinion as to whether Godden dived or fell over, only he knows that, how can he be banned under those circumstances?
I agreeits a blatant dive. In real time it was very convincing - more of the same - I hope
Watched it in the pub with about 20 others only 3 of which were Cov fans, I know it’s on TV so not the same as watching live, but every person there thought it was a penalty on first viewing.I think everyone thought it was a penalty on first viewing. Looked stonewall.
Can't blame the ref for that at all.
Yep but it wasn’tWatched it in the pub with about 20 others only 3 of which were Cov fans, I know it’s on TV so not the same as watching live, but every person there thought it was a penalty on first viewing.
Yep but it wasn’t
I was replying to Otis’s post saying that on first look it was a stonewall pen and the Ref couldn’t be blamed.Yep but it wasn’t
It’s because we’re all enjoying a little guilty pleasureI was replying to Otis’s post saying that on first look it was a stonewall pen and the Ref couldn’t be blamed.
I was merely backing that up by sharing my experience.
FFS only Cov fans would spend more time and effort debating the merits of a dubious penalty given for us, than they ever would for one given against us.
I guess it’s similar issues…. I’ve muff dived from outside the box and not a word said, but that’s usually when I’ve not got my glasses on. I’ve always thought simulated muff diving was a complete waste of everyone’s time ….But we’re all differentWhat about muff diving?
How long would the ban be if found guilty?Genuinely stunned, as I said earlier in the thread I think there's only been 4 other occasions that's happened.

This is the thing for me. We all know what happened but we also know how may dodgy decisions we've had given against us with no action taken. The old 'evens itself out' theory isn't going to hold up very well if there's seemingly random disciplinary action taken for some bad decisions and not others.With some of the joke pens we have had given against us. Its ridiculous

fookin ell!Charged by the FA
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, providing they are consistent about it.
great minds an all that!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.
