  - Very simplistic (NCFC) - jamesward, Aug 13, 10:57:08
    - And is already throwing himself to the floor as he moves across before any contact (n/m) (NCFC) - JD3, Aug 13, 11:05:59

        It’s the attacking player manufacturing the contact, that’s the issue (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Aug 13, 11:47:17
        
        Of course he is. But it happens. (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 13, 12:20:59
        
        Couldn't the Southampton player argue that he wasn't initiating the contact (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Aug 13, 12:02:11
        
        He shoulder/body barged dimi, then fell over....🤦‍♂️ (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Aug 13, 11:30:53
        
        W-P was clearly stationary, Dimi was clearly moving (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 13, 11:43:30
        
        If you're interested, I've got this really lovely bridge I'd like to sell you (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Aug 13, 11:45:30

        He didn’t move for ages until the penalty was guaranteed (NCFC) - ChampsChamps2023, Aug 13, 12:31:13
- Exactly. Dimi did nothing wrong. How was he to know some twat would dive in front of him? (NCFC) - ChampsChamps2023, Aug 13, 10:23:05
- I’d be hopeful VAR would tell him to cancel it (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 13, 10:08:25
  - I wouldn't be too hopeful (NCFC) - jamesward, Aug 13, 10:15:04
    - True, just think they’ve started cancelling a bit more (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 13, 10:34:44
- I always look at the reaction of players… Everyone Norwich player could NOT believe he’d (NCFC) - BigGrantHolt, Aug 13, 09:59:35
