Please stop this conversation. 100 percent penalty

100% penalty. The ref was in a good position, had a good look, waited a fraction of a second and then pointed to the spot. Excellent refereeing.

The ref did a good job dont know why the Donny fans and manager are so upset. They virtually kicked everything that moved in a blue shirt. He was consistent, booked a player from both sides for kicking ball away. Glad Berry didnt take his shirt off for his goal ,he knew he'd already been booked. Tackle on Dobra was a bad one looking at the stud Mark's on his foot.

That was exactly what I thought at the time. Watching it again the lad is unlucky really but will probably be given more often than not.

Definite penalty. Their man was allocated to mark Oldaker and he didn't have a clue where he was so he had to deal with the ball.

At the time the guy had his back to me so I couldn't see it properly, and it looked soft. Watching the highlights, looked pretty nailed on.

When Anderson got sent off I thought he was gobbing off at Gordon as he left the pitch. I can see now he was on at the fourth official. What a chuff. And he was a big load of crud anyway.

I hear you. But, to be fair to football fans across the board, a blood curdling scream is a pretty good indicator of the truth. Shouts tend to be somewhat half hearted when we, or they, are just being hopeful ☺️

Just watched the pen back on the highlights and it was stonewall tbh. His arm is more away from his body than I thought and it allows him to control and clear the ball.

Agree with another post, whilst there were a few soft fouls our way, the ref got the big ones pretty much spot on. If anything, he didn?t give us enough. Second (should-be) pen on Anderson was stonewall and their man probably should have seen red on Dobs. Need to see both back though.

If it looks like we had the better of the decisions, it is because we kept our discipline. They didn't.

Worth noting that when a referee follows the ACTUAL rules, with consistency,for our game, we rarely lose in my experience.
Thought he might have done us with the first sending off,as we never seem able to take advantage with the extra man, then when down to nine I expected the big come back,so really shows to me how dominant we were and how much they had completely lost it.

I have watched a couple of their fan type things on YouTube about the game and both said it was a penalty.

I wouldn't have given the penalty from what I saw. And their lad got booked for a good tackle on Dobra for me.

Have you seen the stud marks on Dobra's foot.

Ref did a decent job with all their niggly fouls.

Overall I thought the ref had a good game
