Absolutely.
Even this, implying that it's ridiculous Ole is talking about penalties when we've had so many.Tweet

You don't get a certain quota for penalties allocated before the season starts. If it is a penalty, it's a penalty.
Absolutely.
Haha
As long as it’s a lesser ban than Dunk then all is fair.Shaw is definitely getting a ban for that
Who is this feckin cnut?! I am more annoyed now than during the game after that decision. WTF is he talking about "probably was a handball but would have been harsh"
fecking joking pal.Imagine if Sir Alex was still in charge. Heads would be rolling and you'd know that Manchester United ain't a club to be fecked with.
The comments to that video are infuriating. Full of ABU’s not even acknowledging the fact a PL ref has openly admitted to bottling a penalty decision but instead just having digs at Ole and saying we deserved to get fecked over cause “We GeT aLL ThE PeNalTies AnD DeCisioNS!!!”.
It’s football Twitter mate. I’ve learned to not get wound up so much about those comments. It’s basically trolls from the 20 PL clubs going at each other.
Chelsea and Leicester have had more than us but that doesn’t suit the bollocks media narrative. Any hint of controversy BT spend 16 fecking hours talking about it...unless it’s against United then who gives a feck?
That’s for the post match thread, where I’ve vented my frustrations too. This thread is to berate a ref for not giving a pen which would have won us the game. Even if we didn’t deserve to, which we didn’t, who cares if we did? It’s Chelsea away, Fergie’s teams hardly won there and if we did, it was often undeserved. Chelsea would say the same coming to OT. The refs done us here, essentially cheated us.
Whose the fecks this no mark? But as I fear he’s just echoing the sentiments of the media in general and will just brush this under the carpet and claim we’re just moaning cause we never got the penalty.
Aye. should know better really but just pissed off as I know this will just get swept under the carpet and never spoken of again when in fact if true is a pretty fecking big deal that needs to be seriously looked into.
We've had 8 same as Chelsea, Leicester have had 10
Even when we win 9-0, nope gotta talk about a random pen.
Maybe they should call Ja Rule too, just to make sure.
I personally wouldn't be surprised at all. They banned Scholes in PL for a tackle in a preseason friendly. They banned Cavani for speaking his language.
Nothing on the Food Network.
To be fair from what the commentary stated VAR told the referee to give the penalty. It was the ref who decided against that decision.
Yeah. Not blaming VAR here, they told him to have a look, which means it is a penalty. He chose to still not give it.
Relevant. Remind me, do penalties only count when you play well or what?
Feck me sideways
Aye on this occasion VAR got it right but my point was more about the general state of things as well. Far to often It looks like the refs are afraid to make the big decisions, they don’t want to deal with it and hope VAR bails them out after mulling it over for 5 minutes. They also seem very reluctant to go against each other’s decisions even when it looks like an obvious error has been made.
It's always been there.
If the ref has actually said what has been claimed, then Shaw has every right to draw attention to it.
CHO's hand is above his shoulder. According to the rules on the FA website, this alone makes it a handball offence. Intention or otherwise is no longer a consideration.
No. The club should draw attention to it. Not Shaw in a post match interview.
Ifthat happens it will be a pen for SHU, so they can maintain narrative.Bonus: they miss it.
Exactly. TV2 norway got a comment from the VAR bus saying CHO’s hand was not moving towards the ball, hence no pen. Which obviously is both wrong, AND wrong use of the rules. If he had said Greenwoods hand affected the handball, i could have accepted the deciscion(even though wrong). According to Atwell you can obviously position yourself like a GK, as long as your hand doesn’t move towards the ball. Also, looking from last change of direction kn the ball, he moved his hand towards the ball for everything but the last 2/100s of a second...
That has do be filed what, 24(?)/48(?) hrs after the game? Whoch is when the normal controversy has all died down, other games have taken the spotlight.
Exactly. For me, easier to accept even imo wrong decisions if you say why. Like, greenwood affected CHO’s arm enough that i thought it wasn’t a pen. OK, fair enough. I disagree, but at least i know why you didn’t give it.
Fair enough. As I said, I don't agree, but I think depending on the angle you could possibly argue that the hand wasn't above the shoulder.
You have to bring it up in the moment, as by tomorrow you have Gallagher on sky defending him with some bullshit defence now he will have to answer this as well, we’d end up looking like Southampton if the club said something first and nothing would be done.
