I saw that

I think he was planning to book him but then VAR got in his ear sharpish and told him that there had been contact so he decided not to. He was certainly being talked to, you could see him clutching the earpiece

      - he'd get it all over the place, but much better reffing not to give it (n/m) (Other Football) - paulg, Jul 2, 09:30:28
        
        I'm fairly confident if that happened to a Norwich striker we'd expect a pen (n/m) (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jul 2, 09:33:52
        
        we expect all sorts of nonsense as supporters; still think the decision was right (n/m) (Other Football) - paulg, Jul 2, 09:55:06
        
        Yeah I think it’s hard not to give it in real time (Other Football) - SCC 28, Jul 2, 09:48:39
        
        I much prefer the more robust reffing (Other Football) - paulg, Jul 2, 10:00:44
        
        yeah, I mostly agree (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jul 2, 10:19:46
  - I saw that (Other Football) - Old Git, Jul 2, 08:45:07
    - Not giving that pen feels like a bit of a re-interpretation of the rules to me (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jul 2, 09:04:33
      - I don’t think it’s about him being able to avoid the keeper (Other Football) - SCC 28, Jul 2, 09:08:31
        
        I don't disagree that's what he did. Just that those are usually given (Other Football) - Tricky Hawes, Jul 2, 09:14:23
        
        Dermot Gallagher agrees with you (Other Football) - jamesward, Jul 2, 09:56:05

        In the prem it’s been a thing for quite a few years (Other Football) - SCC 28, Jul 2, 09:29:56
        
        He's already going down before he gets to the keeper (Other Football) - jamesward, Jul 2, 09:10:16
        
        exactly (n/m) (Other Football) - Jumbo1, Jul 2, 09:09:32
- I can see why all those were given (Other Football) - Duck, Jul 2, 08:28:10
