    They do change from time to time and the sentence relevant to this is quite new. It says the exact opposite of what the pundits claimed.

    What does the law say about encroaching into the area from the defending side when a penalty is being taking out of interest?

    It’s against the laws, but show me a penalty where it doesn’t occur.

    Last night in the West Ham game.

    The ref stopped Noble in his run up due to encroachment.

    I agree, still annoys me as it’s the sort of thing we do get pulled up for but every time we miss one (including at yours a couple of weeks back) it’s invariably an encroaching defender who prevents the rebound. I guess the message is just stick the ****er away first time of asking. Just making the point that if you argue by the laws your penalty should stand, Arsenal should have had theirs retaken that’s all

    Normally the encroachment has no effect.

    However, in the NLD yesterday Vertonghen encroached and then due solely to that, he was the one who got managed to get back onto the line to block the effort that came after the save.

    Arsenal’s penalty shouldn’t have been awarded though as there was no foul.

    I thought both pens were debatable, but the Arsenal pen should have 100% been retaken.

    I agree, neither pen should have been awarded really so the fair score would have been 1-0 Arsenal based on decisions.

    Yeah we had one with cardiff at the end of December where Bamba got back and blocked the rebound from Maddison off the line after being yards inside the box when the kick was taken

    At least injure a few of them ****s if you can’t beat them. Preferably Alisson and Mane.
