The Michael Oliver Penalty Thread

[Pam]

To be fair - all three pens were pens - they were “soft” in the sense the leicester players made the upmost of the contact but there was contact nethertheless

That might be true but if it were the other way around, would we have been awarded those same legitimate but soft pens? No.

This is the same way the Rags end up with a bunch of pens that they say are "legit" pens. Maybe most are if going strictly by the rules, the difference is no other team gets given every slight touch in the box the same way they do.

This is the biggest issue I have with it. We know he wouldn’t have given us all 3.

How many of those penalties would Oliver given against the Dippers ?, answer none , and Steptoe/Vardy would have been would have been sent off for two bookings for simulation, Premier league is a stitch up.

Was Oliver the ref when Kyle Walker then at spurs shoved raheem in the back when through on goal and gave nothing?

Was it Marriner?

Sorry but they were all pens and they would have been pens if it would have been for us.

Contact does not mean foul.

I call bollocks on that. I can show numerous times where we don’t get them, Sterling in other same game was just one.
