A question for those Seagulls who get back from Prenton Park, was it a blatant penalty for the foul on Fleetwood as Norman says? Or do you think they Tranny player won the ball.

Didn't sound too bad today but the stats and position don't lie.

The luck just isn't going our way. The next two games are massive and we really could do with 6 points from them.

Come on Adams!

I think it was a blatent penalty to be honest - not awarded though because Johnson and Forster spent the entire game diving about like pansies.

Words can't describe how blatant it was. Unbelievable decision, and the lino bottled it too.

Ref was a massive arsehole.

How wasn't it a penalty? What case does the referee have NOT to give it. Shambles. Derserves to get locked up for that decison, absolutly POOR.

It really was laughable, it was quite possibly the most blatant penalty I have ever seen. The ref was only about 10 yards away as well. Ridiculous.

The thing is, even if he didn't see it ( Which he quite cleary did ) He's gotta look at it from the strikers point of view. Why would he go down? It was almost a certain goal....too bob twat. He will get demotion for that howler!

You would hope so. There was literally NO way at all that the defender could have got anywhere near the ball without fouling. The ref was shite all day though.

He gave 3 FK's from Bas ( All Dives ) That's just off the top of my head :nono:

The answer to the question is No it wasnt as the ref didnt give it. Had the question been should he have given a penalty it appears that the answer should have been yes. Hopefully we will get given an unexpected penalty at another game to even it out when the points are just as important.

It was a blatant penalty, we would almost certainly have scored if he hadn't have gone down. It is beyond me how the ref and the lino didn't give it but then the ref gave us nothing all match. Ref = :tosser:

Definite pen. It would have been an easy tap in, and the defender could'nt of touched the ball as it rolled right across the box.

Whats the difference between Forsters diving non stop and this leading to not getting a pen and Leon Knights?

Forster is the worst diver I have seen in a Brighton shirt.
