3 great saves from their keeper by the looks of it.

Looking at the penalty, not that it matters, surely the foul starts outside the box so it should of been a freekick. Even though I think its Duffy doing to foul.

I've even been told we were outclassed due to the possession they had. Which equated to 1 more shot off target than we had. If shooting at the keeper counts towards that then yeah, fair play. Chortle.

Posession was 60/40 in their favour so if that is the case, yeah they had the ball more than us, but we clearly did more with it as we won.

I've seen it 3 or 4 times now and no way was it a penalty. Duffy clearly backed into Risser and bulldozed him over.

I've watched the highlights and stopped it frame by frame. Risser did not have his hands around him at any point. Duffy was more or less running backwards into Risser.

Even if I am mistaken, they both started going down OUTSIDE the box. If there was a foul committed it was a free kick and not a penalty.

I hate to labour the point but, it wasnt a bear hug by any means, it was subtle, but risser did have his hands up at the guys waist level....

Even if that is the case, you do know that a foul must be committed INSIDE the box for it to be a penalty?

We all know how shite that ref was at the weekend, it's hardly a surprise he gave a pen. Anyway, that wasn't to be the last time Duffy bottled it when one on one with Big Wes.

again, I hate to labour the point but dont appreciate snide comments like that....you may want to watch it again poppet, obviously the initial tussle it outisde the box, but the tug and fall are well inside, a metre or two by my reckoning...
