* The Unofficial "Official" "Wear-Tees Derby: Sunlun v Boro Match-Day Thread *

Was never a pen. Absolute bull****. They were both running, arms on each other, no grab and he just threw himself to the ground when he got to the box.

 

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

He was pulling him and the guy stayed up until he threw him self into the box….
mugged us there…

 

[Glover_elbow]

Stewart would have missed that chance don't see why dael needed to foul there

 

[Alzi]

Defence has been crap all game, that was coming.

 

[Caesium137]

Not sure about the sending off but it wasn't a penalty it was outside the box surely.

He ran ten yards and threw himself into the box.

 

[BlindBoyGrunt]

That was not a penalty. They were pushing each other back then as soon as he hit the line he went down. That said, Steffen should have been piling off his line as soon as the ball broke.

 

[locomansimon]

Steffen should have been quicker coming out.

Really poor keeper, hope we don't sign him !

 

[Jedi boro]

Fry out now as well

 

[thewanderer]

What is the commentator talking about there? Surely it is where the foul takes place regardless of where the fouled player can stretch his leg? Or is that wrong?

 

[Johnnyweetabix]

We’ve been rubbish all game . Terrible slow defending and all we deserve to be honest . Game over . Let’s just avoid a white wash

[Chappy112]

Fry out now as well

Won't miss him based on today.

 

[FabioPorkpie]

Never a pen. Didn’t even think it was a foul personally, both just light hands grappling, 6 of 1 half a dozen of the other!

 

[Glover_elbow]

Won't miss him based on today.

Stupid comment

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Awful defending. I also thought Stefan should have come off his line quicker.

That said. Poor by Fry... Also in 'hindsight' he should have fouled him earlier. Then only a sending off.

 

[Cuthbert]

We win to 1

At it again with the bad predictions!!

 

[h_m_boro]

We just haven't got going today. No criticism of selection, attitude etc.....we have just been poor all over the pitch. Very lethargic and off the pace. Speaking of pace we have none........Jones?

 

[Alzi]

Would have loved Stewart here, he’s a right handful and has caused lots of issues.

 

[ForssAwakens]

If Steffan comes for it like he should then it could have swayed the ref to yellow if he still incorrectly gives a penalty

Its wrong. It where the attacker is stood. Where the defender is stood is irrelevant. The line belongs to the attacker too.
