Ferdinand saying it's a penalty. Wow. I disagree. Never a penalty. Although that does show that it wasn't a clear and obvious error.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They keep showing an angle on BT which makes it look contentious.

The one the ref was seeing on the screen clearly showed Bruno get the ball first

I seem players lamped and not get penalties, the one west brom was reviewed was never a penalty.

Does any unbiased people actually think that was a penalty? Hafi, you need not answer.

I actually didn't see that despite watching the game. Went for a smoke and turned around when Fernandes was standing over it.

Just checking in after the win.

Assume everyone is feeling good about another three points and our charge up the table continuing?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nope. But anyway, out of interest, your decision on the West Brom penalty?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well it looks like he got the ball. And if he got the ball, it isn't a pen. What surprised me was how Hoddle just kept ranting about watching the shins and said not to look at the feet. Even though they were what would show precisely why the pen was overturned!

Looked like Fred didn't touch the player.

The clear and obvious error was that he got the ball, which the ref missed .

Commentators and pundits have to make chat though

Hoddle isn't great as a pundit. Great player though.

Ah but didn't you listen to Hoddle? Ignore the ball, it's all about the shins

They keep mentioning clear and obvious but, if the ref has changed his mind, then isn't that the justification? Surely it's most important to get the decisions correct?

That's not what I asked. They overturned the decision so they thought there was a clear and obvious error.

I never saw him at his best sadly. Only really started watching football in the period he was player manager at Chelsea

Scary thing is, commentator on my stream thought United’s pen was harsh, said his arm was not in an unnatural position

Yeah it was only in the air

Well it is a clear and obvious error if he gives the penalty without seeing the contact with the ball

Clear and obvious error is just a get out, it doesn't actually apply.

The only think harsh about our pen was the clear foul by Fred in the build up. Based on that, that being given was harsher than theirs being overturned

Just saw the handball. No debate.

All we all want surely is to get the correct decisions made as soon as possible.

Yeah it was a clear handball. Hoddle was having none of that either 🤣

The Lambeau Leap, I just checked and this is statistically the biggest margin on expected goals involving a team against west brom this season.
