The incident in question was right in front of me in the DRS. Duffy was annoyed as a town player had blocked him a little in the build up. He chased the free ball, looked up at Risser and bundled straight into him. Nothing Risser could do other than try to stand his ground. Never a pen in a miilion years.
Clever or cheating play from Duffy depending on which way you take it. Never a pen though.

Snide comments? You might be a little too sensitive for this place sunshine.
I tell you what, you clearly seem to have spotted something the rest of us have missed so why not find the point of the 'tug' and stick it up here for us.

Watch Duffy's legs and he is virtually sprinting backwards. At one point he seems to lean right into Risser with his Shoulder. He pushed Risser over.
I find it hard to be too critical of the Ref because he doesn't have the luxury of highlights before making his decision.

Wasn't a pen. But if rissers arms were up then it's further helped duffy cheat a weak ref .
The good thing is Wes saved it and that inspired us to score

I feel somewhat dirty posting this, but some people are just never wrong are they....
Risser is falling backwards but his arms are not down to break his fall, they are up at duffys waist...

All I can see of Risser in that is his legs..... as he is seemingly going down from the foul by Duffy

So what you're saying is that you're right and everybody else is wrong? |

just going on what I saw, not reporting on a bit of fuzzy video...how many times have you seen a tackle from different angles which didnt look like pen from one, but was a dead cert from others?

Didn't spot what he did at the time, that lunge looks awful on the highlights and he could easily have walked. I've looked at the pen again, difficult to tell from that angle where Rissers left arm is. I still haven't seen anything that changes my mind that Duffy turned around headed backwards and fell over. But J O may well have been in the Town End with the perfect view, who really cares (about the pen) now anyway. |

Um i was about half way back in the block nearest the townend. Sorry to support Flash (and his fuzzy vid) but there's no way you'll convince me it was a pen. The way Duffy crashed into Risser the only thing he could have done to avoid contact was to move out of the way, which obviously wouldn't exactly have been great defending. Duffy could easily have walked for his foul with a different ref. |

Never a pen but I can understand why it was given with just one look at it, so can't blame the ref too much.
