That is probably true but if he'd missed that too he'd have had even more explaining to do.

Can't remember March touching the ball! JFC was tidy but nothing spectacular.

Why two yellows? A goalkeeper handling outside the area is a red card offence, shirley?

Loved your interview today, it sounded like it was getting in the way of some serious drinking time at Dicks.
To you (and me) that is the case, unfortunately, referees do take into consideration if the player is going away from goal. It's stupid, but "no one likes to see people sent off" so there's sometimes pressure to not send players off if you can help it, and with keepers in this situation even more so.
It was about a couple of feet outside the area, to the left of the D by a couple of feet, and Buckley knocked it to his left and tried to go around the keeper, when he was fouled. The defender was kinda level with the incident when it happened to the right of the keeper (facing toward the goal, i.e. he was inside the D).
For me, without the foul buckley is through and scoring, even from a out wide, because he was so far out. I also think it's ridiculous, because if the defender had fouled him and the keeper was on the line, it would be a red even with one more player between him and the goal, so why when the keeper commits the foul is the defender consider a block on the goal scoring opportunity?

Then why was the free kick given outside the area? Surely an offence inside the area is a penalty (or an indirect free kick) from where the offence occurred?

Serious queuing time, as it happens - but that's for another thread.Loved your interview today, it sounded like it was getting in the way of some serious drinking time at Dicks.
That's the second home game on the trot that Levo has picked on me for a first post-match reaction. That's three-quarters of the way towards being handed a banning order, live on the BBC. I thought I was a bit harsh on Leo, accusing him of missing about six or seven sitters. But hey! it shows how our expectations have turned round in the last couple of weeks.
Never mind, it'll make their loss even more gutting.
You had a stormer today. Do you pick nags . . . If so please PM me some tips!

The free kick was just inside the area. Even if you couldn't see exactly where the ball was, you can use your common sense to realize it had to of been because the free kick was indirect. If it was for hand it would be deemed intentional and therefor been direct.
