So was it a foul?

I'm sure there's debate within threads but I can't be arsed to trawl through. I've not seen the goal but the Gary Bennet and the clown of a commentator reckoned it was a fair goal. I've seen reports saying Sam is blaming the ref. So concisely foul or not please.

It was undeniably a foul but people think because Pants is 12'8" and Borhino is a midget then it shouldn't be a foul and was just bad keeping. Pants did well to get two hands on the ball initially and then when he was fouled which made him drop the ball he recovered well and got two hands on the ball when it was on the floor. The midget kicked the ball out of his hands but because he's so small and fast it was impossible to see with the naked eye but replays have proven it.

Shearer says it wasn't a foul mind.
 
Change of subject what the fuck is going on with our football team mate.

Have we been short of players?

Mate we been poor the last few weeks, had no forwards and the new defenders he brought in.....
We were losing 2-1 Saturday I was sure if we equilised we would have won, they scored on the break 3-1 15 mins left and our usual suspects give up.
There's 4 or 5 in the team decent players who want to win the others aren't good enough and don't give a fuck.
The players that left at end of last season were miles better than the new lads.
 
Pantilimon should have done better, no question.

But there was a push, a handball and then he kicked it out of his hands.

There was doubt and i'm a firm believer that if there's an element of suspicion you shouldn't give the goal.

Yeah definitely miss the old heads at the back,they kept the job right.
 
Foul or no foul, Pant's invited it by not coming out and protecting himself by putting a knee out. That creates the space for him to catch it or punch it and it puts a knee into berahino's back.

Poor technique
Only, if he does put a knee out then the laws of the game stipulate that he has committed a foul...
 
Nope, not a foul. Only took one viewing in real time for me to decide that one. Poor goalkeeping, I didn't need a reply to see that one.

Pants in no way had control of the ball when berahino back heeled it.
 
No he didnt have control of it. He should have punched it anyway Pants decision making is very poor.
 
Is football now a non contact sport? They collided in the air, the keeper for me should have been stronger, the jump wasn't into him directly which is what the ref probably saw
FFS In rugby as was explained to me over the weekend if you go into someone when they have both feet off the ground whilst they are catching the ball its a foul. Is rubgy a non contact sport. It was a clear foul.

I honestly believe if the foul had happened at the other end,people would be saying no foul that's how football fans work.
Oh really, look your not the voice of fair play you just agree with the ref all the time that is not having a point of view i could probably write an AI bot to replace you first starting 5 phrases

The ref only gets one look
If it happened at the other end people would be saying it was a penalty
The refs aren't actually biased
The fans of every club think that way
Just beacause we were playing $ClubName doesn't mean the referee is biased.
