@mdudley1894 Too subtle for me, we can’t read his mind and it’s not clear cut like the Swiss sending off, who threw his leg out and fell.
Given that, is he contacted?
Is the contact sufficient to count as a foul?
Was it a clear and obvious error to give a foul?
@ToonFan14 Agree on tiresomeness of Twitter.
Agree that Spence knew what he was doing, which all players should do in protecting the ball.
In doing this he effectively cuts out the defender who cannot tackle.
Happens all over the pitch & a foul is given if defender tackles.
@MullockSMedia@HACKETTREF You cannot prove the intent, whether to protect or deceive - not with you on this one Keith.
You can be confident this would be given as a foul >90% of the time outside the box. Defenders do it all the time.
@brucemillington 100% agree and also real impact from Spence tonight.
We’ve been here a few (too many) times, the hopes are up, let’s hope the ending is different this time 🤞🤞🤞
Really do wish he’d had Wharton available as an option, was crying out for him with Rice struggling. Oh well.
@RacingTV@PaddockPreview@SenseiChanning@LuckOnSunday There’s better examples - get on the accounts smashing the photos and stewards into sub 1.1.
Can’t imagine even being talked about then Betfair’s been going over 20 years and it’s been happening as long.
