Was it a penalty?

It was outside the box so no pen
If you look at the replay Saha think it was given agains him as he puts his hand up to have a moan at the linesman
 
Bang on penalty.
Why was Robbie not in the face of Richards telling him he was a dick rather than having a go at the lines man ??
Dont want us to be "that" sort of team !
Stupid Richards if he thinks that was not a pen !
 
Can't see how much you're whining about this when you're just deflecting away from a shocking performance by debating this. Initial pull was outside the box, but the thick muppet kept hold of his shirt well inside the box and it wasn't as if it was a light tug, he had it stretched out for about 5 seconds inside the box. Saha stayed on his feet so had every right to the advantage of making his way into the box. Richards is the one you should be calling, not the ref.

Correct!
 
Richards only stops pulling Saha's shirt when he starts to go away from goal.. clear penilty.
 
Disagree with half of you on this, it was a stone wall free kick, the foul is given at point of contact, eg, how many footballers have been fouled on the edge of the box but try to dive inside the box for a pen?? It nearly always gets brought back, if you concede a free kick and the opposition try to steal a few yards, the ball gets put back to where the incident occured not where it ended up. Say richards would have caught the ball (with his hands) outside of the box but ran 5 yards into the box with it, it would be a free kick outside the box and not a penalty wouldn't it, . so DEFFO free kick in my book

quite right, except as soon as richards grabbed his shirt they were OUTSIDE the box.

the ref was a fucking cheat, end of.

it was the refs assistant that was the cheat he clearly seen that richards was pulling out side the box but waited till inside the box to give the penalty that aside still very stupid of richards.
