As far as I'm concerned all three of Forest's claims should have resulted in penalties and it's amazing that not a single one was given. The first is the most tenuous but Young kicks his ankle as he plays the ball, it's a foul that affects the...

I'm well pleased for Coventry but in no universe should the United penalty be given and the City one not.

Oh look, an Israeli's finally found a UN resolution he likes.

It does seem kind of ridiculous. If that's the other way round with Gordon going for a shot and Phillips just sticking his foot in the way then it's a penalty. It can't be a penalty both fecking ways.
