I see they had yet another penalty of the kind that never get awarded to us. Also worth checking out Watford’s goal. Beats all our defensive errors this season😄 |  | | |  |

They've had 11 this season and Leeds 7, we've had 1 i think! Ridiculous | | | |

...we have very few touches in the opponents box.
Hutchinson is the only player that really runs at defenders in the penalty area, the rest of our attackers play intricate triangle passes around the box, but lose the ball before they get into a shooting position.
There you go, I solved it. |  |

They're better and quicker than us. It's no real surprise. |  |

Who cares? You could also say they should have had one at PR.
They have a +42 goal difference, are top of league by 11 points and probably about to smash all records. I’d hazard a guess the ball is in the opposition box a lot more than their own. This conspiracy everything is against us stuff is getting tiring. |  | | |

It’s because when you get relegated you get cheat codes. Just look at the top 3 and it says it all. | | | |

Just seen the Leeds highlights. Bamford uses his elbow to score the first and then given a penalty where the defender sandwiches the ball against the Leeds player’s leg who then falls over. | | | |

We’re 5th, just after Leicester (scroll down to posession stats if anyone’s interested)

Broady, Wes, Chappers and Hirst are generally honest players, which probably has more to do with it. Maybe our character test is biting us on the arse on this one. [Post edited 11 Feb 10:40]

Kieffer Moore has a couple of Penalties in him, can see Sarmiento & Al Hadami taking the ball into the box. |  |

Yes I somewhat agree that we don't get our fair share of pens and decisions. But anyone with half a brain cell should realise that a) Our first season back in the Championship has been good and b) That we are a few players short of being able to hold our own in the Premier League. Central defence isn't good enough, midfield you have really only two who can claim a regular place, both of whom aren't spring chickens and the forward line has more than it's fair share of players on loan. | | | |

Leeds' first goal yesterday too. The way the referees referee the relegated sides is wild. Penalties left right and centre, clear infringements that lead to goals not given. We can't even get lino's giving clear offsides when they're right in line with them. |  |

I don't think there's any grand conspiracy behind it, but when you look at some of the decisions it seems their is something of a bias towards some of the 'bigger' clubs. People believe it of the Prem with the likes of Liverpool, United and City getting decisions that others might not, so not sure why it's so hard to believe it happens at this level too. | |

Fair enough, I do think atmosphere at places like Elland Road probably has an affect as well but you’ve got to say that Leicester and Leeds often tear it up going forward and have players running at the opposition all the time. So there could be a reason for the “penalties left at right” thing with how much play is the opposition box. I thought we got lucky against Leicester at home with the Burgess infringement.
IMO last season was worse for us, there were a few ridiculous ones that weren’t awarded, Barnsley opener maybe, Hirst at Posh also comes to mind but there was others before then. Seemed to even themselves out a bit later when games were already out of sight like Barnsley and Exeter. [Post edited 11 Feb 15:06]

On most attacking metrics we're also right up there, it's not like we're shy of getting into the opposition area. Hutchinson has had two or three very good shouts, Hirst a couple, Davis has been wiped out after crossing once or twice, a couple of good handball shouts (Rotherham away especially) and Edmundson was very clearly fouled at a corner away at Leicester, even Sky picked up on that one. Then you look at Bamford's goal yesterday, the non-decision when Chappers was clearly fouled at Elland Road in the phase of play that led to their opener, the Dewsbury-Hall penalty for Leicester at Coventry. There's been many others as well. I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that more big decisions have gone against us than for us this season and that the opposite is true of Leicester and Leeds. | |

We don’t take players on in the box like Leeds and Leicester until Omari comes on. You’re not even giving specific examples outside of Rotherham. It’s tedious and every fan base does it. | | | |

More of an opinion than an argument. If you want more specific examples, Hirst away at Sunderland and away at Rotherham, Hutchinson away at Huddersfield, I also thought O'Nien totally clattered into him in the home game against Sunderland, he's had others but apologies that I can't remember every specific instance, there have been quite a few. Contrast that with some pretty soft ones for Leicester and Leeds and the other examples of (non-)decisions, you may find it tedious but to me there is quite a bit of evidence that we don't really get much of the rub of the green. Just last week we had two goals given against us that should have been disallowed. If you find discussions of refereeing tedious, you can always ignore them. | |

Last week was the most frustrating no doubt and thanks for reminding me about the Huddersfield one, I think that was a good shout that wasn’t awarded.
However, I’m sure Plymouth and Leicester fans were saying similar after not getting the result they wanted at Portman Road
Sounds good, I’ll leave it to you lot to use it as such a pivotal reason. I agree with Watson said on KOA last week about people pinning certain results on refs and the fanbases that moan loudest about it are usually the most annoying. | | | |

You asked for examples then ignored most of them, so not sure what the point was to be honest. That you cite Plymouth, where replays show either no contact or the slightest contact when he's already throwing himself over, as a counter example speaks volumes. You're one of those fans where if that had happened at the other end you'd be saying he should be booked for diving and it's embarrassing to even be claiming for it. The point of the discussion here though isn't just about decisions we have or haven't been given, it's ones that our rivals are getting. A blatant handball goal yesterday, some very, very soft pens going their way on more than one occasion. I'm not sure either of them have had a Preston away moment this season where they've gone two behind off the back of obvious infringements. If it irritates you that people discuss this, that's fine, but it's a legitimate point for discussion. | |

Leeds particularly, I know Leicester are probably stop scorers now but Leeds have the trickiest players
It's Mavididi who must win a lot of penalties for them I'd assume, what are their other wingers like? |  |
