It looked exactly the same when they showed it in the after match analysis.

To get two points from Derby, Hull, and Preston wasn't anywhere near good enough.

But 9 points from Sheffield United, Fulham and Stoke was brilliant.

If that was a foul, the game would be held up every ten seconds for free kicks.

Nothing really. Can't remember a Coventry away match being that heavily policed for many, many years.

It’s really soft but it’s a pen - forget sheaf, he should have gone down when O’Hare stood in his foot. Sheaf left himself there and the opportunity presented itself, he’s crashed into Sheaf - it’s annoying but it’s a pen. If that was O’Hare we’d be raging if we didn’t get the pen

But O'Hare hasn't won a pen this season despite having challenges on him near identical to that.

This is the issue. I feel I don't know the rules anymore because of the inconsistency.

I thought Bidwell had a very solid game and now showing some fitness. He's got more to offer I think. The injury to JCS doesn't look good.

Out of the most recent penalty / non penalty incidents the Derby one given was softer than the Hull Gyok wrestle down and the Tavares take out.

VAR:

I think VAR should be used in the championship play off final for sure. So much at stake.

For the Semi’s ?

Possibly.

Last game of the season where relegation / promotion can rest on a bad decision?

Maybe that too.

The rest?

Not yet. A few years I think it’s inevitable.

Rooney claiming they should have had 3 penalties, and complaining to the ref. The only one that they had a case for was Fankaty's swipe imo.

Adge knows his stuff and knows if that’s outside the box the refs give it 9 times out of 10 in the box it’s 1 out of 10 and never for Ohare

The victim complex and allegations of cheating are amazing when we’ve actually done it ourselves this season.

Refs should get, say, £10k match fee.

After the match, for each f-ck up they should be deducted whatever %.

That will sharpen them up.

Hence why I said soft pen. There’s contact, and like I said - O’Hare stood on his foot pre contact with Sheaf. As I’ve said - if that was us we’d be shouting how much it would be a pen.

Because O’Hare has a reputation. I’ve said it before - he’s not cute when he goes down, a lot of the time he’s obvious when he’s dived.

take Cardiff for instance, the first challenge there was absolutely no need for him to go down under the first challenge. In my opinion it cost us the actual penalty straight after, the rules are the same - it’s just subjective as to what people consider a foul. In real time you’ve got to give the ref the benefit becuase of the speed it’s happening. He’s not going to see the “already going down” he’s going to see the sheaf body check though

Yeah, he bought a pen, we’ve done the same as you say. It shouldn’t have been given but then again I thought Dabos one could’ve been earlier in the half.

I think the issue for most is the total lack of consistency in reffing. A couple of Hull ones were more pens than Lawrence’s yesterday

Bergkamp especially and shearer were past masters at doing it - instigating contact to gain a penalty
