What was Goodman on? 13:45 - Apr 19 with 1824 viewsNthsuffolkblue

How is a foul in the area not a penalty just because he doesn't think he would have got to the ball?

Clear penalty. Hirst could have slid and got to the ball.

It doesn't matter whether he could have or not.

He was fouled very clearly.

That's all that matters. He could have been hauled down on the edge of the area with the ball crossed to the keeper's arms and it's still a penalty for the foul.

He was wrong about the Norwich one too

He's never liked us.

During his career he would have been at the referee all day long to get that.

Confusing the rules for a penalty with the rules for a red card.
With Goodman the words ‘thick as mince’ are first that come to mind.

Exactly. It only makes a difference in terms of a red card or not for DOGSO.

Chambers and McAnuff both saying it wasn't a penalty. I would love to know the rules because I can't see how a foul inside the box isn't a penalty just because he might not have got the ball if he hadn't been fouled.

Which then poses the question why is the defender fouling him anyway?

Yup, he'd already been grappled and slowed, before the defender also pulled his left arm around to deny him any chance of stretching out. Very good chance he would have got there, definite pen.

Dont listen to him. When furlong was taken out inside the first minute it was his fault they made contact after he kicked the ball first.

For me, the acid test is whether that would have been given as a foul outside the penalty area. I think it would and the defending side would have had little cause for complaint. On that basis, as the foul was inside the area, it was clearly a penalty.

I don't mind Goodman saying it, but how everyone else follows suit is what gets me. Just goes to show how suggestible people are once somebody speaks with some level authority.
It's a clear foul, in the box, on the forward trying to get to the ball - how can that not be a penalty?
The argument as to the amount of contact & Hirst's reaction is completely separate.

In the opening minutes when Darnell got hit, he blamed it on Darnell, saying, “it’s the defender that’s initiated contact with his follow through, so let’s just get up and get on with it”

Then said that Nunez had conned the ref for a free kick.

Wasn’t a penalty. We’ve certainly had the Leicester and Stoke mistakes repaid in recent games!

Because it was the lightest of contact and contact isn’t always a foul. Hirst did well to buy it, he was never getting anywhere near the cross and managed to make a slight touch look more significant. Probably slightly more of a penalty than the one vs Norwich but that’s not saying much.

Once again I’m going to get a flurry of downvotes for not wearing blue tinted goggles but if that was given against us we’d be absolutely furious. Just like we were at Stoke.

Not just that, the way he banged on about “the 3 soft/non penalties that ITFC have been given in the last few games” without ever mentioning the stonewall ones we were denied, or the soft ones awarded to our opponents, shows his clear bias and lack of professionalism.

If you get downvotes they will be nothing to do with you not wearing blue tinted specs, but everything to do with you being wrong.

I would be furious at the defender for committing the foul. Not at the referee for awarding it.

Wake up. It wasn’t a pen at all. Extremely light contact. We got lucky with that.

Ah, if they were arguing it wasn't a foul I could see why they would say it was the wrong decision.

But all of them admitted it was a foul.

So, by the rules, that is a clear penalty. The defender wrapped both arms round him and held him back. Even their manager acknowledged that.

If it wasn’t a penalty, surely Hirst would have sold it not bought it.
