Penalties in the Premiership.

It’s all gone a little bit bonkers they should also look at people trying to draw penalties and initiating contact - surely not gentlemanly conduct?
Part of the problem is that players cynically look for any and every advantage. Then pretend it is being professional. A professional foul is not professional foul it is cheating. Similarly trying to con the ref etc is cheating.

We agree on most things HO, but im afraid players play to the rules, and must exploit them to the fullest, as our sides have done in the past.its the rules that need changing.

Yeah I guess to some degree but I suspect if a harder line had been taken on cracking down on abusing the rules many years ago then Pandora’s box might still be closed.

I also think deliberately looking for contact and going down under minimal contact is wrong regardless and yes I know it’s been like that for years.

I do dislike the idea that breaking the rules is somehow professional though.

The plank was clearly felled tonight too and nothing given. If I had enough fingers to be a Bumley supporter I’d be disappointed.

More worried about VAR tbh, as clearly its corruptable, and can /will be used by the powers that be to shaft the Mighty Leeds.

Another penalty. Newcastle get lucky. This is just terrible. Ruining the game.

Another penalty. This time for Leicester against City. 18th penalty in 24.5 matches.

I know I’m a bit slow and just catching up on things this weekend, but have I just seen that the scum got awarded a penalty after the final whistle???

VAR review for yet another handball. Terrible.

That one was pretty obvious (poor defensive work).

And it works in our favour if Sh1tty draw!

Even better if they lose, which they seem to be doing!
