derek kelly any views in Bamford’s ‘goal’ at the weekend??
Looked a clear handball but it has been reported that it was his chest.
They say things even themselves up, we lost to West Brom from a clear handball, the difference is West Brom’s handball cost us a draw, Bamford’s (if it was handball) had no bearing on the result.

It was a clear handball.

The end.

Not picking on Bamford in particular as many others would and have happily cheated like this and it wouldn't bother them in the least. There was another even more blatant one (if possible!) at the weekend.

I find it very sad

Certainly looked like handball & his celebration (poor taste) also indicated that, regarding the West Brom handball it actually cost us the win, so by rights we would now be in second place, the standard of refereeing in the Championship is terrible, in contrast, Joes game on Sunday was refereed by a 14 year old kid who was excellent, he even took the time to explain to the other team’s players that the whole of the ball needs to be over the line for a dead ball.

If they didn’t know that their manager should be sacked.

Basic Laws should be taught as part of coaching.

We’re talking 9 year old kids, they don’t even understand “get goal side”

just seen a front view although partially obscured by the goal post it actually looks like it glances off his chest/shoulder
