bigbear 0 Posted September 16, 2008 I know that the game was a few days ago now, but, about the penalty incident. I can''t remember who the ref was, but there was a poster on here, who stated that that particular ref wouldn''t give us a pen and then went on to give 2 bits of evidence from previous games where he has denied us stonewall pens. The red card was a certainty, and he couldn''t really get away with that, but how come he won''t give us a penalty?I also assume that its a possibility that in another game involving us (if he has refereed another city game) he hasn''t had to make that sort of decision or he has actually given us a pen. But overall, he sounds like a particular binner ref who seems to ref Norwich games and does strange things, maybe they are friends! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted September 16, 2008 Simply he bottled it, if the penalty had been given he would have had to send off the player and having already sent off 1 home player a few minutes earlier he wasn''t going to send off another Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndyJR 0 Posted September 16, 2008 Would have been entirely academic had Hoolahan not been numptying about taking an extra touch - don''t rely on the ref to give a peno, put your foot through it, especially when it''s an open goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
