Of course it was a penalty, everyone in the ground knew it was, including the ref, I don’t even need to watch it back
Yeh thats true' we were stitched up good and proper there' the ref was being fastracked to the prem the following season apparently and his hoppoes couldn't let him be seen to be getting a big call wrong.
If that was Roberts on Stansfield you can bet your life it would have been given. And no, I doubt anyone would have complained about it. Shocking decision, as was the clear foul on Phillips being ignored which led directly to his first yellow.
