    ....I can see why it was given.

    Definately not the dodgy decision as claimed on the commentary last night.

    I'm just hoping that isn't the equivalent of Walsall in 2002. We'll see.

    Don't see how the linesman can see it from his angle

    He only 'thinks so' anyway.

    You can see why it was given though. No arguments from me.

    Having seen it on Sky I would have been shouting for a pen had it been at the other end.
    I think all the fuss has been caused by the fact the ref didn't give it and the linesman did.
    If the ref had pointed straight to the spot I wonder if there'd have been as much bother?
    I don't really mind who gives a decision as long as it's right and that one looked a pen to me.
    Nowhere near as bad as the Sheff Utd farce in my book.
    Granted I've only seen one TV angle so other angles may look different.

    Put it this way

    We wouldn't have got it.

    Not in that situation.

    Sheff Utd at home anyone?

    Penalty given by a linesman on the half way line. Again it was a penalty, but how he could see from there is anybody's guess.
