A foul is allways from the point of contact
Where is this in the rules?

Do you need a rule to know the bleeding obvious ,do you need somebody to wipe your arse when thas shit thee Sen .
If Law 12 is posted in its entirety then the rule is explicit in that a penalty can only be given when holding continues into the box following an infringement first occurring outside the box.Interesting one isn't it
A few other refs have tweeted it was a penalty due to the foul continuing as the player went into the box, stating Stevens still had contact with Solanke when he slid in.
Colin Murray on Quest said the rules say any foul that carries on into the box is a penalty is a foul also and was very dismissive of any saying it was not a penalty. He says it was correct based on the rules but above suggests possibly otherwise.
I have to say we had a Sharp one the same the other week and a free kick was given not a penalty.
It does seem daft to have such a rule for holding but not for other tackles where the foul carries on. Probably more obviously than today where I am not even certain the contact carried on much after he got in the box but just seems odd to differentiate. You could slide in and foul a player,then carry on bringing down but get away with it if the player finally gets brought down in the box? Yet a grapple or hold treated differently?
Rule 13 direct free kicks are taken from the spot of the incident ,is that ok for you
I've tried to cover all of this in post #41 on this thread, I asked a qualified pro referee, who in turn confirmed with 8 other refs and I'm confident we now have the definitive answer.
If Stevens hadn't steamed in a fouled the bloke, the 2 other defenders could have put a block in. It's marginally outside the box but I can understand why the ref thought it was in. He doesn't have var or slowed down replays to help him make a decision.,,,, probably cost us 3 points today.
“Marginally outside the box”If Stevens hadn't steamed in a fouled the bloke, the 2 other defenders could have put a block in. It's marginally outside the box but I can understand why the ref thought it was in. He doesn't have var or slowed down replays to help him make a decision.
Absolutely diabolical tackle from Stevens and looking at the pic of the lads leg he was lucky to not be sent off.“Marginally outside the box”
At least a yard is marginal???
The ref was 30 yards behind an in no way could see the incident clearly
He guessed
Absolutely diabolical
Agree tackle was recklessAbsolutely diabolical tackle from Stevens and looking at the pic of the lads leg he was lucky to not be sent off.
Unfortunately one of those bodies was the rather wide one of FleckThe referee guessed, it's as simple as that. I was stood in line with the incident and it looked like an excellent tackle outside the area. When the play was stopped me and the people around me all looked at each other and came to the conclusion that the referee had deemed it to be a back pass or (incorrectly) come to the conclusion that it was a foul outside the area. A referee should never guess - particularly when it comes to match changing situations. The first thing I did after the incident was look to the right and the referees position. He was close to the half way line looking through bodies at the incident. The referees job is to be close, at an angle, unobstructed. His poor positioning meant he was in no position to make a judgement. The linesman hadn't flagged to indicate a foul so, at best, the referee should've had a brief conversation with the linesman to determine what he's seen from his position. Extremely poor refereeing: he got caught up in the moment, the crowd noise etc and gambled on black. It turns out it was red.
He has a 'linesman'If Stevens hadn't steamed in a fouled the bloke, the 2 other defenders could have put a block in. It's marginally outside the box but I can understand why the ref thought it was in. He doesn't have var or slowed down replays to help him make a decision.
Maybe he just thought the initial contact was in the box?And a pro referee, officiating at the second highest level in English football, gave the penalty.
And if the line is “championship referees are shit” what does that say about those refs who have not made it to that level?
Load of tosh.Tackle starts outside the box and then carries on into the box where there is further contact. It’s a pen.

Looked at this a few times. Does ES get the ball first or is it a heavy touch from Solanke that sends it goalwards?
Genuine question. Can't see really.
View attachment VID_20211003_200242608~2.mp4From one of the angles I’ve seen it looked like Enda got the ball but in real time I didn’t think that so can understand why the referee thought the same. It was still outside of the box though.
