PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

That last sentence really made me laugh, brilliant.

Described me in secondary school, actually :O

I’m not a fan of asstrick but whatever floats your boat.

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

The simple answer to the Question is, Would Salah/Liverpool, Rashford/United, Saka/Arsenal get the pen, Fucking right they would, ( It's Modern Day Football ) The Wolves player was late and put Gvardiol in danger of a injury

Why they are all moaning is, that Nobody Wants City to win the title for the 4th time in a row
Check Out Arsenal Pen from Yesterday, That is cheating and diving ?

Yup, a dive.

Of course it was a penalty you absolute lunatic.

Correct, it's a free kick anywhere else on the pitch and probably a booking.

Quite.
Though I thought the Wolves player slightly deflected the ball just before taking Josko out - in which case it probably is a pen under the current rules under the "dangerous play" rule as he cleaned the player out while making the challenge.

Just watched it again to make sure… Guardiol had hit the ball before contact was made. The defender had eyes on the ball and was entitled to challenge for it. In my opinion it was nothing more than a playing incident by old rules. Seriously do not think that would have been considered for a penalty 25 years ago and maybe more recently than that.

Fair enough, i can see your reasoning. However, you look at the incident predominantly from a defenders point of view.
Every footballer has a right to challenge for a ball, but whether they can without contravening the laws of the game is the issue.
The defender was,caught out of position because his team was caught out of position. The defender has the legal challenge right to block the shot, but that's not what he did.
Due to his bad positioning and accurate play from City (which by the way is what goals are mostly built upon) he lunged into the attacker, missed the ball took out the player and that constitutes a penalty kick.
I would even go so far as to say it was an out of control challenge that endangered the opposing player.
Apart from the dangerous challenge the exact same scenario happens for the 2nd penalty, and everyone agrees that's a stonewall.
That's how I see it.

For the second, Haaland has control of the ball and was denied a goalscoring opportunity. That wasn't the case for the first.

A Burnley supporter on 606 last night said that he heard at their game yesterday that all the charges are going to be dropped.

What did Sutton say in response?

Listen to what you are saying. It makes no sense.
The ball had been passed to City players for them to make an attempt at goal, they were stopped from taking the shot because of unlawful challenges.
It's the same, exactly the same.
You saying that because Gvardiol hadn't put the ball under his control the defender has the right to take him out?
