Maybe not a penalty, but he didn't dive, so would have been OK with a goal off a bit of good fortune. Oh well. Come on!

Come on

he was taken down obviously about to be in behind the back four, one on one

clear penalty

it doesn't matter how nice the guy is who accidentally clips you


it's not a pen because manny wasn't going to get the ball as the pass was overhit - yeah there was contact but Storm didn't know anything about it.  no pen for me, even with only my Nix eye open.

I thought he was comfortably going to get that
and, again, it doesn;t mater how nice the guy is who accidentally clips you

why do you keep saying it dosn't matter how nice the guy is - if it's not relevant (which it's not) then why keep saying it, i don't see anyone else bringing it up?

Disgraceful. No one even bothered to make any kind of run off Hicks then. Brockie was just jogging watching.

the point is that he was clipped and brought down in the box, when he would have taken the pass
nothing else matters
saying it was accidental doesn't matter, and that is akin to saying, hey, he didn't mean it, he's a nice guy, so we'll let him off

O bitter irony. A dead set pen not given.

Could've been another pen.

Our final ball is SO frustrating though.  Very hard to watch them get near the goal and have no clue what to do / no movement in the box.

Ernie has probably forgotten Brockie is actually playing.

i guess we agree to disagree - for the record if manny was going to get the ball and i don't think he was then i agree accidental contact or not then it's a pen - it's not really the contact for me that was the issue it was in my opinion that Manny wasn't going to get the ball.

Doesn't matter if he was going to get the ball or not.

course it does - unless he is absolutely smashed of course - in this scenario if he isn't getting the ball then it's not a free kick anywhere on the field, so not a pen.

Well, in primary school ( I long time ago) I was taught always to shoot a penalty towards the goal cornerpost, never anywhere in the centre..

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days
