So that's the rule is it - wrap yourself around the striker before the ball is kicked and wrestle him to the ground after it's kicked? So if our defenders do it to opponents, we won't concede a pen. Laughable.Yes! You get a yellow card or a red card if it’s warranted but if the ball isn’t in play then there’s no different way of putting it back into play, it’s not a foul.
It’s literally the first line of the laws on fouls and misconduct.
I haven’t watched it back yet to see if they were right to say it wasn’t in play.
Well said Rodders!
But we didn’t against one of the worst PL teams, missing 11 first team players, and one of the worst teams in the history of Spurs.65 pages after a shit result. We hold out today and the thread wouldn’t reach 25 pages.

And had we gone for the throat last Wednesday we wouldn't have been watching our phones while leaving the ground worried that UEFA would conjure up a draw for Real.Sounds like many of us mate :)
The frustrating thing today is we don’t go for the throat when we’re ahead. Says it all when our man of the match is our goalie.
Win on Wednesday and we’re at Wembley, thrash the thieves on Sunday and the cockney cunts will shit themselves.
At no point in Pep's career has he ever looked forward more than a year. We can still have a hugely successful season. If Pep's happy at the end of the season he'll probably stay. We're a very young side, an injury ravaged young side and the last time I looked we had the second best defence in the Prem despite the injuries decimating our back line.sorry to be controversial.
no referring standard no excuses its just poor he needs to start winning football matches not making Palestine speeches doesn't seem like he's focused on the job in hand and I think he knows he's going
Spurs are a pathetically poor team when everyone's fit - finished 17th last season and currently sit 14th. The table does not lie - Spurs are an embarrassingly feeble side despite their lavish wealth.The players are bareft

Their fans planned a 75th minute walk out.
They all stayed after the score went to 2-2.
Imagine if it was still 0-2.
Spurs fans walking out in their 1000’s, crushing an already defeated Spurs team.
But oh no, Spurs get it back to 2-2 and the stadium is full of Spurs fans cheering the Spurs team on.
No wonder our fans are frustrated, and the thread was 65 pages long when you posted.
Spot on.It avoids the obvious conclusion that he kicked the cb and it was an og
So he can’t call out crap VAR over several games because he didn’t perform well today? Ok.He was poor and needs to shut up.
He's right tho , bout time our players,manager call it outHe was poor and needs to shut up.
No of course they wouldn’t give a foul, the throw in gets retaken. If it’s warranted then the player that pushes the defender down gets a yellow or a red card.
Agreed. It was assault before a foul. Leg breaker although not intentional.He's right tho , bout time our players,manager call it out

So why wasn't the corner retaken ?
It was impossible to see what was going on.He's right tho , bout time our players,manager call it out
Good point seen refs blow the whistle or hold up the taking of a corner to speak to players every weekSo why wasn't the corner retaken ?
Anyone actually seen an angle that shows the penalty area and the corner so we can see if VAR is telling the truth?So why wasn't the corner retaken ?
So ref thinks he sees a good goal isn't vars responsibility to pull him up for a clear and obvious error to go to the screen ?It was impossible to see what was going on.
You can't blame the ref. No clear and obvious in any way.
Well said Rodders!
