    And to be fair the players are probably trained not to just hoof the ball out he was in front of their striker so the only way he could lose the ball was to a tackle from behind which is never a foul by the player in front. Except this one time….

    I don't think it's been brought up, but I'd argue whatever happened, was outside the box.

    To be fair he had plenty of time to boot the ball clear on a first touch , once he tried to bring it under control he was under pressure .
    And tbh I’d be worried if they are trained not to boot the ball away under pressure especially in the penalty box .
    Blaming the ref is also a valid point although abuse isn’t imo but once our player tried to control and start dribbling he allowed other scenarios to come into play including a mind boggling penalty decision .

    I understand that the EFL will be ensuring that this rule is again strictly enforced on Tuesday night when Barnsley travel to Exeter. For a game that the Reds need to win to go above Bolton in the table, the referee they have appointed is from, yep, Bolton.
