Swansea V City post match thread

For me, if he gives the pen he is saying it is an intentional elbow and therefore should send him off. I don't see how he can give a pen for it and do anything other than show him a red.

Ah right, now I get you. I thought the new rule was not to give a penalty and a red for the same offence? You're right though, the ref did indicate he gave it for an elbow. In my opinion, it wasn't an elbow.

Assumed I had misread that, glad someone else is questioning it...

Are we saying it could be 'their year'?

GTFO.

Thought Burnley beat the dippers ;-)

Watched it on a stream which wasnt hje best quality. Wasnt like previous weeks but still a good win. Raheem played well and took his goal very well. Hard going away from home in the prem and its 3 points.

P.s
Just another 22 points until we are safe

You need to get on that Sports Dictator Twitter account. I had a HD stream with absolutely minimal interruptions.

As I understand it, the rule is only for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. You can still be sent off if a pen is given for violent conduct.

Who assisted Raheem's goal?

Kev, Silva played the first ball out of defence to Kev and Kev sent him running.

Some bloke on the pre match thread recommended it. The Arsenal v Chelsea game is on now, and again it's a great stream.

Lovely, cheers.

Credit to Swansea, they made a good fist of today's match & even though it wasn't enough for them our patchy display was enough for the three points. Sterling was my MoTM. Sagna had a game to forget, after his slip for their equaliser, he just looked like he'd lost all composure & confidence & it came as no surprise he was substituted.

All said & done it was a welcome three points.

It staggers me that there is even a debate about that penalty, it's clear as anything.
