AjcW Posted 3 December 2017 Share Posted 3 December 2017 I was shocked with the MOTD lot saying it was a penalty, and Howe.... and then Moss even says it! If Vardy or Sterling launch themselves like that they’d be lynched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 4 December 2017 Share Posted 4 December 2017 (edited) I thought it wasn't a pen and was a clear dive tbh. Surprised so many people thought it was stonewall. In some ways I'm happy for stonewall pens to not be given if the player throws themselves over theatrically. Though not when it's us, obviously.

Wymsey Posted 4 December 2017 Share Posted 4 December 2017 Former PL referee appears very honest here, but was perhaps too kind to Spurs during that certain game.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42219327 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 4 December 2017 Share Posted 4 December 2017 No idea how anyone can say it's a penalty. He's dived. I don't understand how you can think otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Facebook there are people complaining of match fixing after what Clattenburg said. Surely the fact he didn't send any Spurs players off meant it benefitted Spurs?

The fact Spurs still couldn't win was their fault, but he gave them an unfair advantage. It's match fixing and it's fraud, he should actually be banned from the sport for life prosecuted like the FIFA officials. How is it not 100 times worse than that non-league goalkeeper who ate the pie, or Joey Barton betting on random matches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is explain how it isn't? These aren't emotive words: Corruption - dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery. Fraud - wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain. If something similar happened in horse racing they'd be jailed, or at the very least banned for several years.

His actions didn't directly affect the score line so it cant be classed as fixing a match. People would have won bets just as much as people losing them. To openly say that he effectively didn't send players off when in his mind he knew it warranted a red card is wrong I can agree with that. TBH im not even sure why he has bothered coming out with this statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also TERRIBLE Copy writing... 'a new crystal palace' actually refers to their glass interpretation at the front of the stadium... but sounds a bit like they're trying to get rid of the shite team Edited 4 December 2017 by AjcW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost like the "its my first one" plea a player makes about a tackle. Youve got to referee to its merit surely? Cant just see a red card offense and not give it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palace away is one of my favourites and I like Selhurst as it is but it seems tight enough atm. Unless they're knocking down some buildings like Liverpool did.

The ground will look ridiculous after this development imo. Two fantastic, huge stands coupled with two tinpot little ones on the verge of falling down. Somewhat reminiscent of Filbert Street, on a slightly larger scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
