Surely this one's a win/win. Either 3 points or Pelli gets fired... 
Then who gets appointed in his place? 
...to be honest Sullie's lad who runs the ladies team could do no worse

k in. Antonio was blatant handball so no arguments there but he flipping properly put the goal away too, should have let it stand for that alone in my opinion! Antonio also seems like a man possessed at the moment, it's almost as if he knows he's carrying the team and is playing out of his skin to drag the others around him up. Just hope he doesn't get injured or suspended any time soon.

Sounded like we should've have had a pen, obviously not given.
To me, if you put your arm round the attacker's neck and keep it there as you drag him down that's a foul, if it's in the box that's a pen. Obviously the ref-in-a-box back at Stockley Park won't give it because he's part of the referees' union and they won't overrule the bloke on the pitch on decisions like that. Antonio's handball is easy, because it's binary, giving a penalty is objective but to me it's a foul. RichB said:

Spot on. They had VAR and still got that very very wrong.bad company said:
