I haven't seen the 2 penalties, but the Millwall players seemed angry with the ref. Were they nailed on pens, or were there questions?

First penalty appears to be nailed on, but second penalty sounds very questionable. Lots of people, including the Solent commentators at the time, saying that we handled the ball (possibly Hooiveld) not Millwall. If so, then it would explain Millwall's complaints.

Merrington just said that the second pen was a definate handball, apparently the guy punched the ball. I didn;t hear about the first pen though.
 
From what I heard, 1st Pen was stonewall, 2nd was definitly a handball but from a Saints player. But I have no proof for the 2nd one just from what I heard.
 
Yeah the guys on Solent didn't seem convinced by the second one, but maybe they just didn't see it right, will wait to have a look myself.
 
Just want to apologise to everyone. I wasn't wearing my lucky saints shirt til about 60 minutes in, hence the nerves.

Lesson learnt.
 
Our favourite west ham supporting talksport presenter isn't too happy with the amount of penalties we've had this season (this is the guy who was was tweeting Billy Sharp after Matt Taylor lashed out at him, and refused to accept that Taylor was in the wrong)

Merson is a waste of space - he was commenting on the game for sky sports.

He cant pronounce players names properly.

he said lallana set up lambert for the 1st goal - then after game realised it was sneiderlin but calls him senderlin. said at first it was hoiveldt that scored the own goal and then that it was a saints handball for the penalty before changing his mind to 2 stonewall saints penalties. He struggles with lallana too.

Unbelievable Jeff
