Yes, VAR would give the penalty, I never said it wasn't a penalty, just he dived or threw himself to the ground in an exaggerated fashion (if you like that sound better.) that really is undeniable and that was the point of my involvement.

How to write yerself out of a job - tell the truth, explain what has gone on impartially, give credit to the opposition, and make sure the best in the game is at the centre of the report!That guy should be signed up by a major sports journal. The fact he's fair, accurate and truthful means he won't unfortunately.

I did, and after reading your subsequent messages, I think you are actually saying it was a foul. So really, we are of the same opinion, in that it was indeed a rightfully awarded penalty.Did you even read my opening post?
I'm going to say you didn't :)

lol ok
Around the 11-14 seconds mark.
like I said I don't give a fuck, 3 points thanks very much but let's not be scouse or raggish and pretend it wasn't a dive after a brush of contact.
Remember when Foden stayed on his feet and got fuck all?
Yes, awful decision and I also remember what this discussion was about, maybe you should read the first post I made, it might help.Remember when Foden stayed on his feet and got fuck all?
I do, it was a discussion about him throwing himself to the ground AFTER the touch.I did, and after reading your subsequent messages, I think you are actually saying it was a foul. So really, we are of the same opinion, in that it was indeed a rightfully awarded penalty.
One of those posts you regret posting regardless whether it was true, sometimes it isn't worth it lol

That’s how I knew it was a penalty. Everyone around me was saying he dived but I just said look at the Fulham players, they knew it was a pen.On the penalty, the Fulham player knew as can be seen from his reaction.
Only on here will you get posters trying to claim it wasn’t lol

I don't need to research.Yes, awful decision and I also remember what this discussion was about, maybe you should read the first post I made, it might help.
If you are touched in the box and don't go over you don't get a penalty.
If you are touched in the box and go over the ref has to make a decision. Whether the fall is classified as a dive is the refs problem and var can sort it out.
The amount of times I've seen scousers do this (remember Fulham a couple of years ago for one?) and got 3 points is unbelievable.
It isn't diving, it is gamesmanship, and the refs have VAR to help them out now.

The clue would be I never said it wasn't a penalty, though one man's gamesmanship is another man's diving and another ones cheating.
But the reply was to somebody saying he had had his leg dragged away from him and then he fell as he spun, that isn't true and that is what I replied to by saying he dived by throwing himself to the floor after feeling the touch.
It really was quite a simple statement, I also said other things about being glad, about boiling scousers piss, gave an example like you about us not getting blatant pens for hacks in the box but yeah it is now an argument about it being a penalty, something I never ever said wasn't.

If you were an especially lucky homosexual you could avoid jail by agreeing to be chemically castrated.When England won the world cup in 66 you could be jailed for being homosexual. Never mind Britain's human rights record in kenya a few years earlier
I’ll start to believe the current frenzy about gay rights in Qatar isn’t a front for racism when the same journalists and pundits who are pushing it so vehemently also begin an earnest campaign to have the 1966 World Cup tournament expunged from the records.
White Christian homophobia = Good.
Brown Muslim homophobia = Bad.

The Football World Cup has in fairly recent history been held in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Russia, USA, South Africa.If you were an especially lucky homosexual you could avoid jail by agreeing to be chemically castrated.

All countries with much worse human rights records than Qatar but I don't remember much fuss being made..even in Russia. There is an army of ill-informed hacks currently riding the anti-Arab gravy train. Some of them are making good money out of their newly-found consciences. Why do they only have a problem with countries of Arabic origin?
agree with you here and its even worse when you google it theres no articles or much about and these so called journalists quote ammisty international well if you go look on there website theres articles damming the south africa world cup. I wounder why people like miggy had nothing to say back then as hes such an' award winnging journalist'. its laughable. Its also clear they only care when these countries have imput into a football club thats ambitious because theres no outrage about sheffield united wonder why.The Football World Cup has in fairly recent history been held in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Russia, USA, South Africa.

Or are clueless…They were more expansive when we had 11 men and we were going to give them a 5-0 drubbing, no doubt about it. This narrative from the media is written by people who didn't watch the match.
I like to give people the benefit of the doubt when it comes to stupidity!Or are clueless…
Its Alan Partridge at its finest. He looked at which fan base could be milked the most and there was only 1 plastic show pony in town, ripe for milking!!He was a forest fan then! he is pretending to be a rag and look at him making thousands of pounds of if and even talkshite having him on there!

Tells you all you need to know…Bizarre isn't it .Adding all the marks up (starting 11 only) City's total is 67 whereas Fulhams is 73 !! , even more bizarre is he rates SIX fulham players equal to or higher than KdB
