That was a clear trip, end of story, not something that happens "24 times a game"

It wasn't really that clear. I was watching with a few people and along with myself they weren't too sure about it.

Erm no, it was a trip, plain and simple - nothing like a hand on a player.

Sounds like Owen against Argentina 4 years ago. Maybe that was different.

I don't care if I get labelled a Sun reader for this (and I'm not a Sun reader), because it is bloody funny...

GIMH · 06-07-2006, 06:17 AM

Bless ...
Maybe he was upset by all the rude words Big Phil was using after the game.

EDIT
Now you tell me ...

Sorry LOL, well I thought it was, then I posted it and it looks like it's from the Euro 2004 Final.

GIMH · 06-07-2006, 06:23 AM

Doh I think that's from the Euros as well. I'll keep looking

Predictably irrelevant, wrong and nitpicking reply. You couldn't have tripped a wingless gnat over with the contact involved in that penalty. So it is exactly like having a hand on a player, because in both cases the contact does not make an impact on the player in terms of whether they're obstructed, knocked off balance etc. but virtually everyone can see there is contact.

If you give fouls for such insignificant contact you may as well just make it a non-contact sport
