The injustice here is felt because this particular law continues to be enforced inconsistently by refs.
In any event, the law says that the offence must be in a manner "considered by the referee to be careless, reckless or using excessive force".
Perhaps what Winnard is alleged to have done would be considered to be careless, reckless or excessive in Western Australia but, I suggest, no reasonable person who plays, watches, or referees football over here would regard it so.

It must have been "considered by the referee to be careless,reckless or using excessive force". That is why he gave the penalty. FIFA laws apply world-wide including Western Australia.

That may be so Cashy, but the referee was not standing next to you.

We have but they don't apply to soccer, sorry football.

The TV looks very inconclusive!!

I was sitting level with 6 yard box and my view was that Tom Aldred dragged the lad to the floor. He had (as mentioned earlier) just been elbowed in the face by their player, that's when the ref spoke to them both.

Apologies. I should have known better than to assume the Sky commentator knew which Stanley was which, and heard him say it was Mr Winnard who was penalised.
Just goes to show that nothing on TV is 'reality'.

True the useless get was a damn site nearer.

I thought it was Aldred meself football 19, But surely Sky are always correct?

To save all this arguing I have come up with the perfect solution...re-introduce the Penal ships to Australia and send all the pathetic league 2 officials over there for re-education by Aussie Irene and her hubby..........

I was sat level with 6 yard box and i thought it was definitely Aldred, which makes it even more frustrating as the ref had just warned the pair of them (tbf their player had just elbowed Aldred in the face)

WE thought we were 'one-eyed" when we watched the owd Stanley, but you lot take the cake. By the way, it's my hubby that UNDERSTANDS the laws of the game, and that is all that is all that is all he is quoting. I just do the dirty work and type. He says If the ref made as many mistakes in a game as the players do, then you would have the cause to grizzle.
