Robbie Keane - penalty or not?

Should Leeds have gotten that penalty which O'Leary was so pissed about? My Leeds mates insisted furiously. ;) Didn't get to see the match but heard Robbie Keane was booked for diving. :D Weird that he seems to have the reputation now, doesn't he? Second time this season already.

From the angle I saw, it looked like a pen. Having said that, the ref was close to the incident and Keane didn't seem to complain much about the decision. I'd like to see another angle before deciding one way or the other.

IMO it was a pen BUT, Keane blew it by twisting as he went down. He obviously tried to embelish the situation and he over did it. It ain't natural to twist your mid section when you fall and ref's are becoming wise to that.

He might as well have given the whistle to some mackem in the crowd 'cos every time the crowd wanted a free kick Barber gave them one.

I think even if it was a penalty that Leeds deserved not to have it awarded and that Keane deserved to be booked...

Leeds dominated the first 45 mins and should have been 2 up the game would have been all over if that had happened.
2nd half they came out and played better scoring after a couple of mins Phillips goal was a cracker and turned the game after that we did not play well.
Should have been a pen so of course Robbie was wrongly booked...crap ref!

I know now how you sad lot feel.....losing is a new experience for us at least :p

Robbie Keane does tend to overdo that sort of thing IMO.
