Referees/Officials Thread - 2023/24

Just watching another discussion about the penalty involving players who don't know the rules.

Shay Given making the point that the keeper is second guessing his dive because of Akanji. That's true, but it's not the offside rule.

Akanji has to either play/try to play the ball, or he has to "clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision". Nothing about making a keeper not dive, just in case he does play the ball.
 
Was in shock when Oliver gave the penalty for us
He had no choice is was such an obvious decision but bar that it was the usual Cty performance by him. Different rule book as to what is a foul and a card for us and what is for them. Player pulls our player back from attacking, no card, Bernie does it card, Rodri carded and more dirty fouls by them no card and no 2nd yellow for the penalty
 
Brilliant today. Got all the decisions in our favour correctly.

Bout time we start to Benefit from some questionable decisions. Akanji wasn’t directly infront of the keeper and he didn’t touch it so…

Now we are European royalty we get treated differently -:)

It was never a goal in a million fuckin years mate. We were helped out but I'll take it.
 
The precedent for the second goal being allowed goes back to the Rashford/Fernandez one in the derby
