[Politics] Rochdale v Tottenham

[pauli cee]

Spurs, an acca **** up, everytime you need one!

Not a pen?

Deary me.

Player took Alli out.

Yes, but people have decided Ali is a diver so therefore there can be no genuine penalties if he's involved. Keep up!

Alli’s diving is on a par with Zaha and today was no different. Nobody falls over like that, throwing your legs in the air.

Back in August, I wonder what odds you’d have got on Wimbledon, Newport and Rochdale playing at Wembley this season?!

So it wasn't a penalty then?

No, it was a dive.

Or like Lamella at Liverpool, keeping his legs bent in mid air as opposed to going feet first to avoid falling over like what a normal person would do.

So many Spurs fans on here, the only contact was made by Ali dragging his leg into the defender then leaping like a salmon.

so many "Albion til I die", "I used to go to the Goldstone", etc Albion fans on here who also support another PL team. I don't understand it - if you supported Spurs, etc before why change because Albion got promoted?

Ali’s action was an embarrasment to every decent minded football fan, sadly spurs don’t have many of those any more. He’s a grotty little man, punching way above his weight along with the rest of the Wembley Wanderers. The sooner him, and others who choose to cheat like him are stopped, the better for our game. Not sure how or when that will be, so many more millionaires will be made, but surely their time has to come, doesn’t it?

Bizarre definition of taking someone out. The leap was quite incredible.

Put in another if he was actor playing a footballer in a film the director would have asked for another take.

Great game, the Crown Oil Arena is always a tough place to go so knew Tottingham wouldn’t have it their own way but staggered how lowly Rochdale are given how well they played. Keith Hill their gaffer seems like a top bloke too.

Massive dive. Disgrace if they don't expose him afterwards. Mind you, with two ex Spurs in the studio, I am not holding my breath. Madley is hopeless on penalties. He falls for the con-trick every time ( e.g last Saturday )

I'm against VAR in play. But I'd like to see players punished properly for this kind of stuff using the video evidence, Ali was barely touched, ref conned a theatrical dive. So glad Dale equalised against these cheats

You could tell the gulf in class between the two clubs today, when a Rochdale player was fouled, they went down like a sack of potatoes, when a Spurs player went down, they executed a perfect triple salchow with double pirouette before gracing the turf and gliding to a halt. Rochdale have a lot to learn before the replay!

It will always be Spotland and I remember that 3-0 defeat on a Tuesday night in the traumatic 1996/97 season. I didn't go but it's just the result and team we lost to that hit home to me how much we were in the shit at that time.

Mega fans who went that night. I can't think of anything more depressing on that cold October evening than witnessing that. A very bleak era.

Most of the football pundits agree that it was a penalty, it’s not as clear cut as you make out. There was contact, maybe he went down to easily but if a defender goes for a ball and misses and catches the player he can’t really complain if a penalty is given.

Spotland looked different in 1971.

Replay date might be hard to squeeze in? Palace host Spurs on 26 Feb 2018.

On first viewing I thought it was an obvious dive but looking at replays from different angles there obviously was definite contact. The way he went over was suspect though - it is one of those where VAR wouldn't necessarily help as it still comes down to opinions on how significant the contact was to making him fall over.
Thank god Dale got an equaliser - great old fashioned cup tie.

Palace game has already been moved to Sunday 25th because of the FA Cup replay.
