Brentford v Aston Villa Match Thread

Just saw replay from a different angle - should have been given

He's quite right to go down if someone makes contact with him in the area. Abraham's reaction is irrelevant. He gets kicked. Penalty.

I couldn't stand Bruceball but some of the recent performances, including this one, are worse if anything. There's a fair bit of hoofing going on.  A lot of them don't seem interested in making an effort.  I do wonder if maybe they just don't like Smith.

There have been many times I have not liked my bosses (apart from Dave, he's ace) but I have always done my job to the very best of my ability.

Yes but you're not a footballer Leeg.  They're a "special" breed and it's not unknown for them to the opposite.

I don't think it was a pen, but the ref hasn't given him anything all game and a fair others have been fouls. The one on Green a little later was a definite foul though.

You’ve been listening to Jermaine Jenus.

Elphick has been solid tonight

Fair point. Player power.

Commentator talking some amount of pish. "Yes he does catch him but it's not a penalty" because... reasons.

Because it's a contact sport and not all contact is a foul.

Not a pen for me. Tammy left his leg there looking for it.

On first viewing I thought it was, but seeing the replays, I don't think it was.

Same for me

[Toronto Villa]

I can see why Kodjia wants to get out if he can't get a game when we need a goal.

[Risso]

Yes but you're not a footballer Leeg. 

Nor are half of our players.

[ChicagoLion]

Was not a pen.
Hologram should have scored.

[LeeB]

Not a penalty for me -Abraham chose to fall over.

You can fuck off n'all.







I'm joking!

[cdbearsfan]

If you make contact and don't get the ball, it's a foul. And it isn't a contact sport, with the exception of shoulder charges.

Careful player.....don’t fall over by Mings.
