Forster and the Penalty

[Beach Hut]

Well the Donny players were incensed with him about diving and I think two were booked by the time play kicked off again.

Lucky with the penalty but as soon as the keeper parried it back to the right we had two players ahead of any Donny defenders so I knew we could score.

Inconclusive from I was in the South Stand so can anyone confirm a "tumble" or a nailed on penalty ?

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Definitely contact, went down like a two dollar whore though.

 

[Napper]

looked like he was clipped , was opening up nicely for him as well which was a factor

Opinion from behind the goal (I was up in the South Stans by then) was "soft"

 

[smudge]

I was in line with it; he was going at pace & his ankle was clipped. Definite pen'.

 

[dougdeep]

Forster said there was very little contact. Which probably means none.

 

[Buzzer]

Definitely got clipped. I had a very good view of it. 100% penalty.

From top of the family stand it looked a clear cut ankle tap. And yes, although it was saved it always looked like Fozzie would nail the rebound. My bet each way on L1 top goalscorer is still alive!
Really enjoyed the 2nd half today. I thought Donny played like a team in form and we came to terms with them and outfought and outplayed them by the end. Full credit to Deano for changing things around when Donny dominated early on.
My eldest lad said: who cares we got cold and wet cos we won. Good lad!

We were right behind the goal, on the side where he was fouled. I think he was clipped, made the most of it, but isn't that what you do? The Donny defender was really at fault for making such a challenge in the box, and if I remember rightly, there was another defender in front of him too, so really stupid challenge.

There was another instance, right toward the end of the game, when Murray was well and truely shoved in the box (ooer) , to my mind, that was far more of a penalty, the defender went out of his way to shove him, but it didn't get a thing.

Oh well, onwards and upwards.

We're certainly getting our fair share of penalties this season. Hoorah!

 

[NMH]

If Nicky could have gone any further with his run, he was on to score a goal and get applauded bigstyle for a fantastic solo effort.

If the defender stopped him without addressing the ball - then it's a nailed on penalty, even with minimal contact.

It was put away with aplomb, and I'm only sad that he was stopped from scoring after his great solo run - as that would have been a contender for Albion goal of the season in my books.

Your 13 years old, shouldn't know what that it

when you're running at pace the slightest touch can send you down, not seen the pen but its always these types that are accused of diving because the the little contact.
