Fair result IMO. Neither side did enough to win that for me.
Clear as heck. Hell even.
Agreed. Our referees are shit enough in the PL. May aswell just accept the fact all refs are shit and make the handball rule like it is in La Liga.Handball rule is such a joke.
The rule is deliberate. But the ones that are given are rarely, if ever, deliberate. That's never deliberate. Chambers cannot be expected to have his hands flat by his sides or behind his back there.
But it's Arsenal though, so LOL.
He's prick of the highest order, arrogant and incompetent twat we may laugh this time around, but he will screw us over in the future with his inept decisions no doubt.Dean is such a ****
Ours yesterday was more of the penalty and we didn't get it - no consistency with these shitshow refsI think it was a penalty. Yes it's unfortunate but his arm did come towards the ball slightly too. Not intentional an handball but still a penalty.
Ref saw this one. Yesterday he missed a couple.WBA get a penalty...we don't. Where's the consistency?
You ever tried running at full speed and then stopping instantly with your hands behind your back? It's not easy as the momentum will carry you forward. His hands came in front to stop him clattering into Gibbs and balance himself and stop him falling forward. At that distance you can't call it deliberate or if thats the case then players should just aim for hands when crossing in the box to get a penalty.He raised his arm too.
The ref saw it. If the ref saw Young's elbow yesterday it would be a red card for him and an penalty for Southampton as well.WBA get a penalty...we don't. Where's the consistency?
Why are people saying that's not a penalty ? If that was against us I'll be mad to not get called.
He wasn't at full speed, he had a chance to stop and put his hands behind his back. Instead he chose to deflect the ball.You ever tried running at full speed and then stopping instantly with your hands behind your back? It's not easy as the momentum will carry you forward.
So all you need to do is target opposition hands in the penalty box? I dont think this one is a penalty as opposed to ours yesterday where he held his hands high and prevented a real danger, it was nothing like that here.Why are people saying that's not a penalty ?

Because there's no chance it is a deliberate handling of the ball, and deliberate is the rule.Why are people saying that's not a penalty ?
Why is he that idiotic to keep his hands in front of him like this ? A B defending is to put your hands behind your back in such situations that the cross hit your chest and go out.So all you need to do is target opposition hands in the penalty box?

There is a difference between ball to hand, and hand to ball. Which do you think it was?Clear handball
How many deliberate hand balls in the box have we seen lately and got called a penalty ? Most of the hand balls can be considered not deliberate for me but still get called. The rule is flawed.Because there's no chance it is a deliberate handling of the ball, and deliberate is the rule.
The inconsistency of the discretion being applied for non-deliberate handball is the issue. The rule needs rewriting.
They have two games in 3 days coming up. Not enough police due to NYE to police a full Wembley, Spurs (and one presumes West Ham) were given the option of a much reduced attendance or another date. They chose another date.Why have Spurs just skipped a round of fixtures?
