Phil Parkinson

Actually it would have been 2 - 2 if they had scored theirs and we had missed

Mr Parkinson though would say it should have been 2- 0!

Probably not, because if those two scenarios had played out, the ensuing game restarts would have been totally different and totally different patterns of play would have emerged.

[OP67]

Old Parky needs to read the rule book regarding handball and denying a goal.

We controlled the game against a tricky 10 men situation. A good 3 points so that's 4 points we've taken against them this season. Now we need to getthat goal difference up against Dover at the weekend.

[Notts78]

He’s deflecting. He realises that Wrexham have lost to an under prepared, COVID hit, lacking match sharpness, bereaved team. They even went 1-0 up and blew it.
Wrexham literally had everything in there favour and have been comprehensively beaten.
This win is even sweeter given the odds (even the bookies didn’t fancy us) were against us.

[IluvNotts]

Wrexham are a good team and work hard. They play good football and I think they'll get promoted sooner rather than later although maybe not this season. A fully fit Mullins is quality at this level and he'll score lots of goals in the NL and League 2. I think taking 4 points off them is a promotion performance by Notts who may yet get the top spot. The end of season fixtures could make all the difference.
I can't see Parkinson being with Wrexham next season even if they do manage to get promoted. Ryan Reynolds is going to be far from impressed with the classless gob****e he came out with yesterday.

Whatever he says in public, I don't think it will have been lost on Phil Parkinson that we out-passed, out-battled and ultimately beat his team despite not fielding two of our most notable match-winners in Rodrigues and Roberts. Wrexham may have the highly paid individuals but we looked more of a team.

A lot is being made of the result owing to Wrexham going down to ten men, but the reality is that we created the handball situation with a swift, incisive attack that caused panic in their defence. And as for the argument that a handball to stop a goal is only a sending off if it was deliberate, what is he talking about? I can't remember a time - certainly in recent years - when a handball by an outfield player to stop a goal has not led to a sending off.

Neither can it's always been a guaranteed red card in that scenario unless I've missed a recent rule change.

I was thinking about his "double jeopardy" comments relating to the handball if unintentional. For starters very difficult to state that many balls hitting arms of outfield players on the goal line are unintentional. Imagine if he was correct the player doesn't get sent off, we get a penalty which let says Wootton misses. Talk about injustices when the original shot by Mitchell is 100% a goal if the opposition player's arm doesn't get in the way. That would be harsh to say the least.

[Notts78]

Wasn’t the whole double jeopardy rule brought in for professional fouls rather than handballs anyway? Primarily because a goalkeeper would come out and make a genuine attempt to get the ball and might clip the opposing player.

Taken from the FA rule book - Law 12

SENDING-OFF OFFENCES

A player, substitute or substituted player who commits any of the following offences is sent off:
denying the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by a handball offence (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)
denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent whose overall movement is towards the offender's goal by an offence punishable by a free kick (unless as outlined below)
serious foul play
biting or spitting at someone
violent conduct
using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or action(s)
receiving a second caution in the same match
entering the video operation room (VOR)
A player, substitute or substituted player who has been sent off must leave the vicinity of the field of play and the technical area.

DENYING A GOAL OR AN OBVIOUS GOAL-SCORING OPPORTUNITY

Where a player denies the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by a handball offence the player is sent off wherever the offence occurs.

Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other circumstances (e.g. holding, pulling, pushing, no possibility to play the ball etc.) the offending player must be sent off.

It's quite amusing because their fans have gone from saying our equaliser wasn't a red, to it wasn't a red because Chicksen was offside to now seeing the replay and realising it was a clear red and not offside.

Be interesting to see the third goal because from the angle of the video I saw from behind the goal, it looked in to me.

The problem Parkinson has is that he's blew his reputation. He failed at Sunderland with an outrageous budget, he's now not running away in the national league with an outrageous budget. The man must be in panic mode

[magpie_mania]

Probably not, because if those two scenarios had played out, the ensuing game restarts would have been totally different and totally different patterns of play would have emerged.

Of course, I understand that.

I was just pointing out what the score would have been, everything else being equal.

The player who got sent off didn’t argue. That alone shows it was the right decision
