I suppose proberts decision last season which would have given city the penalty and probably the equaliser and put neverton down to 9 players with 15 mins to go was the right decision, tough shit winging sky shitbags

Inconsistent refereeing, he either gives both or neither of them. There was no "diving" involved.

Disagree.

You won't see this in slo-mo but watch it real time and watch Lukaku's run closely. Lukaku gets in front of nastasic and checks his run knowing Nastasic will go into the back of him. Nastasic doesn't put his hand up to shove him over - why would he - but because otherwise he collides with Lukaku. He (Lukaku) initiated the contact - in other words he went looking for a penalty and didn't get it. Plainly Lukaku didn't dive but he tried to win a penalty nonetheless.

Coleman on the other hand puts out an arm to impede Zaba - no other reason. Zaba went down easily (Sergio would have stayed on his feet) but he didn't initiaite the contact - it was a penalty.

This.

Plus Lukaku was running away from goal, whilst Zab had got round his defender ready to shoot or cross, but couldn't as he was pulled back.

How odd because from what I saw the pundit ref said they were both not penalties.

I'd go the other way actually, and say they were both penalties.

Alas I'm a tinted pundit Jim so I'll just agree with Zabs.
