    Think you got that right Norway. The WBA decision was down to the ref and linesman, I still can't get over how they managed to give it offside. Talk about not knowing the rules of the game. <doh>

    the refs are only human and everyone makes mistakes now and again. overall they are very good and highly trained. the refs word is final whether its right or wrong and thats how it should be. managers should not throw his toys out of their prams the way holloway did and accept all decisions during the match. he can see the ref after the game and ask him why he made the decision or wait until the match report....

    None of our players try to run past players in the box. Hence no penalties.

    Yes, since Scott Sinclair went to Man City, we haven't had a penalty. He may have been a bit greedy at times, but he did commit defenders into a tackle.

    I'd go along with that Dai but what happened at West Brom last season was a shocker. The officials officials should have been put in front of the FA for it to explain it

    yes this tells a bit of a story that we are not doing enough in the box, we should be in their face forcing the tackles that makes penalties happen....I think we may get a couple at least this season courtesy of Bony...<laugh>

    I have seen worse than the wba incident over the years dill and will probably see it again but it don't do the manager any favours other than get him sent off or/and a big fine....I read today that hawkeye is not as accurate as first thought for football, something in one of the scottish games proved it as i understand....

    I saw on the news briefly that it wasn't working somewhere but the owners said it was human error

    I'm worried that Cañas may be all that rolled into one..... certainly put the boot in on Saturday and also did the multi-roll I've been shot movement when he got hit with a tackle....

    It was a hurling game in Ireland.......one camera not set correctly resulted in one shot being given a wide....one point missed and the team lost by one.
