I take it it's a 50/50 handball case?
Was it a pen or not? mixed opinions on t'radio.

A still image can prove many things. Interestingly, his hands are in the same position as Rose's, which you'll say is natural.And this is never natural
If you spin in football with your hands by your side, then you're a very individual player.
Another point is, he was never aware exactly where the ball was, not even looking at it. It wasn't intentional, it wasn't a pen.
If Naughtons handball against West Ham was a pen then that one was a stonewaller and a red card and a life ban.
Then you should know the guidelines written for YOU in the rules.
And I don't believe you. I wrote two of those guidelines in my first post and you replied as if I only wrote one.
So either you are unaware of the guidelines, although being a ref, or not a ref.
Dyer put his arm out to block Rose, not to touch the ball.
Initially I thought it was a pen but I've changed my mind.
Initially I thought it was a pen but I've changed my mind.
I have to admit, i've just seen it on tinterweb and that little fella has put his arm across Rose to gain position thus making it an unnatural position and his hand knocked the ball out of roses path. First glimpse pen for me.
Wouldn't that then be obstruction?
A hand ball has to be intentional, rule 1, end of story.
If the ball hits the arm then the referee must decide whether this action was to deliberately block the ball. It wasn't.
And I don't give a shit if you believe me.
It could be. But very soft.
Oh who gives a fuck? the ref gave it that's all that matters. we got a late equaliser and we have another chance..
Had absolutely no intention of going... Just persuaded my Dad and brother to come along for this one. That is what £12 tickets do.
Credit to Leicester.
And you have to take the guidelines into consideration to determine whether it was intentional. You don't get to decide with your guts whether something is intentional.
And I don't give a shit that you don't give a shit. I'm just telling you, that if you are a ref, you are a poor one (with regard to a situation of handling the ball at least)
Never a pen, but as you said, literally could not give a flying fuck. Decisions go either way all the time, this time was our time!
In full speed it looks like Dyer was trying to block him off, outside the box that is a clear foul, debatable as pen.
I'm not biased but that was stonewall and Son's goal against Watford was onside.
If it's a foul outside the box, it's a foul inside the box.
