You missed the fact about the most blatant penalty ever being given as a corner.

It certainly wasn't the most blatant penalty ever.  That accolade goes to Rory Coleman and his 'headed clearance off the line' from last season.  Against Gloucester.

I couldn't get to the game on saturday, I was going to go with my boy but my boy dislocated his knee about an hour before kick off so I missed the game, ambulance was required and xrays etc, etc!!!! I can't comment on whether it was a penalty for obvious reasons but what I can say is we have had many valid penalty decisions turned down this season and at times it is so frustrating but the refs will never change their minds or ever be that good (and thats at any level ie Howard Webb and Stuart Attwell in the prem) and that is a FACT.

Of course, these decisions level themselves out over the season we're often told. A theory that we could take comfort from had it not been for the fact that we've yet to be awarded a penalty this season.

Does seem odd Tigar that you never get the penalty dicisions , as porl99 says last season every one at YS saw our defender blatantly handle on the line with no penalty given ,add to that the fact you have recieved non this season does seem something is amiss.
 If it is any help Tigar my theory is
 The refs go on BSN forum and club forums and like many of us enjoy seeing posters take the p"ss out of you !

You know, you might not be that far from the truth.

There can be very few other reasons why he gave a corner instead of a penalty kick for something so blatant.

I believe we were the last team to score a penalty in the division last season (Who can find the penalty update thread?), and we managed to do OK. You shouldn't have to rely on penalties to score goals!

We don't. Had Morf not been fouled then he'd have been in an excellent position to create a goalscoring opportunity.

Sorry it's taken nie on a week to get back to this, I've finally emptied my camera and can show it from another angle that clearly shows the defender was no where near him when he fell....





































Couldn't let Tigerbore has the last say on this.  :-\

That's Chris Anderson from Brockworth. He features in a music video by the Maccabees.

If you've got no kind words to say, you should say nothing more at all.
