it's NOT a fucking penalty. It's a "get up" signal from the ref. and a shake of the head, but the baying crowd pleaded rabidly for it and the drama of it all got to the cock of a ref.
Yes his shirt is held.
Yes it continues into the box.
Does it impede his progress?
Without the tug does he get to the ball?
That's how they decide pens, right? That's how they do it at corners.
It's a fucking desperate dive and he's a cheating bastard.
All this, "Ahh, but by the letter of the law" shit always seems to work in their favour, doesn't it.
Funny that.
