[When Watkins got barged over in the box in the first half and Fulham’s defender came away with the ball, the Oranjefool waved play on.

Had Ollie barged the defender over and taken a shot (too much to hope he'd,score?), you could put your mortgage on the ref giving a foul against Watkins.

On MOTD, the commentator described the challenge on Ollie as "shoulder to shoulder". Never know Ollie's shoulder was in the middle of his back!

Yes I thought that!

So odd! Along with “that’s not enough for a penalty”. It’s either a foul or it isn’t!

A blatant penalty, red card also..they make it up as they go along.

Penalty but not a red card. Double jeopardy.
