    Definitely handball was pleasantly surprised he gave it and not give their defender a foul. Correct decision though

    How the chuff did the keeper avoid a booking

    Penalty awarded, keeper goes over to remonstrate with lino whilst Gray puts the ball on the spot. On his way back to goal the keeper takes a detour via the penalty spot to pick up the ball and throw it away - no booking. So, Gray replaces the ball on the spot only for the keeper to stroll out and kick it away again, whilst the ref spoke to a dissenting Coventry player.

    I can't imagine an outfield player would have got away with doing that.

    Re: How the chuff did the keeper avoid a booking

    Agreed Revvie....but that's Coventry every time.....they excel in gamesmanship.

    I thought at first the linesman was giving them a free kick......didn't realise he'd given it for handball. Sums them up....always trying to run the game, there was one instance when we should have had a throw in, they picked it up and took it and it was only at that point that the ref and linesman signalled it was their throw.
