The point you are missing is - how the hell could a linesman 35+ yards way, through a sea of players, with Kamara's back to him see the infringement clearly enough when the referee who was far better placed just 10 yards away with a clear view did not see it or did not see it clearly enough to blow for a foul? This is what is being questioned by most and many are not suggesting a foul took place and at best it was a 50/50 but for the linesman to give it when the referee didn't, under those circumstances, is questionable.
Don't dwell on any injustice, that would be my advice. After all, just recently we have witnessed Mr Holt do a two footed lunge into a keeper with no reprimand, studs down the shin in the following game & also a pathetic dive to win a penalty-which I must confess, annoyed me the most. So rather than injustice, maybe this thread should be called 'victims of karma.'
If we'd been the better side, created more chances etc etc , then I'd join in with the injustice claims; the frustrating thing was we were in a position where a dodgy decision got Arsenal the penalty, nothing to do with justice, just some poor decision, happens in every game, end of story
Giroud is a complete and utter ****ing scumbag. I felt robbed but I accept decisions sometimes don't go your way it's always been like that. Unfortunately some decisions are biased in regards to certain clubs.
They were both shirt pulling - ergo it was 50/50 - it went against us but again that is not really the point, although if it is considered 50/50 then how can the benefit of the doubt go one way or the other? What you have not answered is how the linesman could possibly have had a better view of the incident? I have watched it until I am sick of it and can't for the life of me see how he possibly could have. As pointed out above though it's gone and there is bugger all that can be done about it, we lost and we look to win next week but incidents such as these should be highlighted as officials do appear to becoming either a little worse or a little more influenced by home crowds or certain teams (I think many fans would agree with that).
I have no idea, I could barely see who "started" it when watching "live" or in the countless replays, it was near impossible to call even after the replays, furthering my astonishment that it was given
It was a foul - as clearly shown on MOTD. But it was a soft foul - as was the "foul" prior to Michu's disallowed goal last week. So the OP is wrong - some things do go Norwich's way.
