Premiership 15/16 season

Not at all, if the contact wasn't enough to take him down, then it's a dive and he should be booked.

 

Not a lot of honour in your train of thought is there

 

Then how can you say it was a penalty in your previous post, when you're now saying that he dived? I bet any money that was it a Vale player that went down under the same circumstances, not one of you here who are insisting that it wasn't a penalty would be saying the same thing. Absolutely no chance.

Well, I was wrong though Newcastle ran them close. I am pleased with the result as I would like Leicester to win the league, but feel they may still suddenly realise they are not in the middle of a dream and panic and throw it away. As for Newcastle, great club and fans, sad team, and even sadder and more ghastly and vile owner, will make the playoffs in the championship next season if they're lucky, but would benefit massively from a change of ownership.

 

If the owner doesn't turn up at the Parliamentary Committee on 7 June he could be locked up by the Speaker - really!

I bet Pep's having second thoughts?

Sanchez was hard done to on Saturday. Clearly clipped, he tried to stay on his feet but was stumbling and then started to fall after losing his balance. As he was falling, he was taken out by a second defender. But because he was already falling due to the first foul, it looked like a dive when it wasn't.

 

Can't understand how Newcastle didn't get a penalty today when Mitrovic had his arm pulled back. Then again I thought the Newcastle goal was a foul.

I can't understand how Utd didn't get a penalty when Rashford was taken out by Demichelis. Revealing stat on Sky just now saying City have only got 3 points against the other sides in the top 6 with only Arsenal to play. Senor Guardiola has his work cut out in the summer.

I didn't see the game but I listened to it on the radio and when Robbie Savage is taking the **** out of your performance (as he did with Demichelis), you know you have problems!

We've just had some dimwit on 606 say it's all Pellegrini's fault for picking these players and he's just doing it out of spite because he's been sacked.

I know you shouldn't stereotype all fans but, from living among them, City fans aren't known for their intelligence.

He tried to lose against Liverpool in the League Cup Final and against Dynamo Kiev aswell.

The reasons he didn't get a penalty is he hadn't got a Liverpool shirt on and he didn't dive.

That was hilarious!

 

Anyone seen Beechy tonight? He's quiet! :)

What the hell were Liverpool complaining about? Skrtel nearly ripped his shirt off, clear penalty. The offside was the correct call, he was impeding with the keepers view so it had to be chalked off.

[Twitters]

Been some fantastic goals though. Coutinho and Pelle. Awesome quality.

[Twitters]

Am I missing something here? In the Newcastle United game Mitrovic pushed the defender down to get extra leverage to score. In the build up to Southampton's winner, Skrtel was barged over and sent flying.

 

How were fouls not given for either goal?!

[For Us All]

Did anybody else see the little boy behind the goal giving Sturridge the middle finger during his goal celebration at Southampton.Fair play to his dad though for admonishing him.
