#thfc It has been noted by Spurs that referee Peter Bankes, who officiated in the derby against Arsenal, said in last week's episode of the Match Officials Mic'd Up show how, "once you see two hands in live play, it looks like a push, a clear push. I was more than happy that the two hands on the back had enough impact and was an offence".
With that in mind, Tottenham were left confused why Fulham winger Harry Wilson's opener against them in Saturday's 2-1 loss at Craven Cottage was allowed to stand.

Tottenham HAVE to request the PGMOL to explain why one of their referees, Peter Bankes, was allowed to go onto a TV show and tell everyone that 2 hands on the back “will always be given as a foul” only for a PGMOL referee to completely disregard that several days later

Of course the only captain who’s not allowed to speak to the referee. We should’ve withdrawn ourselves from everything related to the FA after Mike Dean stitched Pochettino up at Burnley in 2019; it’s all gone to shit from then.
I'm actually completely happy with that penalty call against Bentancur if that's now how all corners are reffed from here on (every single one is called for a foul and Arsenal's entire gameplan falls apart)
