Location Oakwell, Saturday 08 November. Scenario. The Linesman who is 80 yards away gives a penalty for an alleged handball. The referee 5 yards away did not see the handball, the linesman that side of the pitch did not see a handball and TV replays clearly show there was no handball. Blackwell says. If there was no handball he wouldn’t have flagged if he it wasn’t a penalty. _______________________________________________________ Location KC Stadium Friday March 27th 2009. Scenario.
