If you mean the knee then it looked like he was almost horizontal before any slight contact. Great free kick though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Good lord they’ve got strange ideas of what is a legitimate penalty down south these days. Tierney was on his way down before the very slight knee contact, which I doubt would have been enough to make him go down. Even in the post match he said he felt contact so went down, maybe I’m old fashioned but I think feeling contact is a legitimate reason to fall over is cheating. If the contact isn’t enough to make you hit the deck it isn’t enough to be a penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3fingersreid Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Liverpool v WBA just kicking off , fans at the game but there doesn’t appear to be much social distancing going on , are they in a lower tier and can get away with it now ?

Jamhammer Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Leveinesque tactics from Moyes cost West Ham 2 points today. One up top v Brighton at home especially if that one is Sebastian Haller, despite that superb overhead kick he is the most miserable footballer I've ever seen and, at 45 million probably the biggest waste of money too. An empty jersey pretty much every week. Yarmalenko offers way more. Mark Noble, club legend though he is is finished as a Premier League player. Lucky to get a point today.

Most games I've watched with crowds, outside of the SRU test event with only 700 in a near 70k stadium, have looked a bit 'dodgy' Could be families and households, but it just doesn't look as if protocols are being strictly observed. But I'm sure they are as there doesn't appear to have be any negative publicity. Edited December 27, 2020 by DETTY29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
