Rochdale Penalty

[Tony Flags]

What was it given for? Serious question.

It looks exactly the same on the tele as at the match. Their number 7 handballs it at the edge of the box and then runs into the box and loses balance.

Was the penalty for the hand (i.e - ref thought it was our hand) or the fall when he landed on Maxime?

Bbc have it down as a foul by Blanchard. Looked like a foul the other way from where I was.

I wasn't convinced on any of the 3 penalties so interested to see replays.

I was in the lyndhurst and wasn't sure about any of them but after seeing them a number of times on sky and the fl show - yes the first the guy handled it, theirs was for a foul on Max (according to one of the sky bods) but I couldn't see why it was given and the third was definate contact (a push) but have seen them not given

I've just seen the highlights and couldn't see the first one properly, but the other 2 pens looked very soft to me. Looked like a handball by their player before the 'foul' by Blanchard and I thought Lennox went down easily for our 2nd.

On the whole, I thought the ref was very poor - booked Griffiths for a foul which was barely a free kick, missed an elbow by Adebola on Purse and also gave some soft penalties. But we won, so happy days!

It's fair to say they were three soft penalties, can't see that Rochdale's was a penalty at all and I'm not sure that Lennox didn't simply dive, if there was any contact it was minimal. Also, the free kick that lead to their goal was a very poor decision. All in all the referee didn't have a great game.

First a definate handball, the 2nd was no way by our lads, and the third was a clear push on lennox.
As for their free kick which ended in their goal was in no way a free kick, to us maybe but not to them, he jumped, we didnt he fell, simple, that ref yesterday was shocking, A birmingham fan mate of mine took his son and he told me the ref must be blind

Any Ref who gives Argyle TWO penalties is OK in my book

We didn't have one in either of the Aldershot games? But we did have one against Wimbledon. So 7 penalties out of 16 games in all competitions.

3 given against- Aldershot opening day, Port Vale, Morecambe.

We did but Griffiths missed it.... I think.

Rochdale? roblem:

Of course :doh:


And SG, the one that Griffiths missed and then converted the re-bound was Wimbledon. In neither the opening day nor the JPT game did we get a penalty against Aldershot.

More pace in our forward line these days so more chance of penalties I reckon.
