with a clear gap in between them when he makes the move

we are going around in circles here so i'll leave it now but it's one of the clearest pens i've seen in a long time
Well, since the Charlton game. Scratch that, since Southampton.

The Woolfenden one, which I didn't see in real time, is ridiculous. What stage was the game was at? I'd like to see far more of those given as pens.

If what some are saying about what happen to EMC you would expect the club to raise it with the relevant authority’s.

Also EMC needs to learn to concentrate on his game rather than just trying to play the Man all night

I say it every game, needs to park the physical battle sometimes, collect the ball on half turn and just run at them. Did it once first half and scared them shitless

You can honestly look at my screenshots in post #200 and not see even the possibility of an obstruction?

I’ve not seen a foul given for obstruction in a very, very long time, haji got his body in front of the defender and the defender scissored him (so to speak). From the other angle defo looks a pen

What’s dones done though, hopefully we’ll start getting the rub of the green soon

the video also shows haji isn't close enough to furlong to obstruct him

I still can't see it he's clearly in advance of the player, he's already in advance of him and the guy is already manhandling him?
These are better screenshots.

At the point of the obstruction I'm talking about, he definitely isn't chasing the ball. Their player is running, Haji is turning. I agree with David O'Day that he "moves across the defender", but the point is you can't do that when the ball has gone past you. The obstruction isn't deliberate, and nor is the consequent tangling of legs as their player is knocked backwards.

Would have been nice to get a pen at that stage of the game though, and on another day a ref might give it because it all happens in a split second.
