West Ham Chairman, David Gold has highlighted that the Hammers don’t seem to be getting their fair share of penalty decisions in the last four years.
Gold claims the Irons are the only top-flight team not to receive a penalty away from home in the past four years and in total we have received nine spot kicks compared with twenty six each for Man City and Liverpool.
Gold tweeted “Over the last 4years in the Premier League West Ham are the only club not to have been awarded a penalty away from home. ?????? dg”
“In the last 4 years West Ham have been awarded 9 penalties, over the same period Liverpool and Man City have had 26 each. ?????? dg”
That’s what happens when you don’t dive ? Maybe its time to play the same game as they do ? I wouldn’t like to see it personally but it seems the successfull sides have it off to a tee.
They cheat !! With assistance from officials ? Man u, martial dives tonight and gets a pen but payet gets zilch for a foul ! I don’t hear no reterick concerning the pen from utd ! Why , because they are allowed to dive ? We are not !!
I saw that stat and when you compare us with every other team in or about the top half we are languishing well below all. I am not sure how many pens we have been wrongly denied but its a lot in comparison to other teams, lets hope we get a good run of decisions in our favour going forward. Like this ridiculous handball unnatural position of the arm rubbish, all defenders now use the rule to make their bodies bigger blocking shots with their arms in “natural” positions.
Can’t remember when Noble last took a pen does he still take them for the club ?
Was it a goal by our glorious Keeper against the cloggers ?
DD and DS will need to show off their break dancing skills first before I can believe them
Pug has obviously been practicing with his players in training did I see they scored with a pen against Liverpoor last night ? Was it a dive ?
Who cares let’s just kock them out and move on then take 3 points from them in the league
And make our way in Europe maybe we can go a bit further then them while they are rebuilding their side,then they can wait until last to watch their side on MOTD
Foulaini gets let off again. Just been spoken too then his very next challenge is an elbow to the side of an opponents head. Bang in front of the ref. Result=another finger wagging. How does he do it? He’s like Houdini.
More like WWF mooro . He’s no footballer . Swinesnider should have had a straight red , we can all do the right thing but cheats always prosper in top flight football, it needs addressing but will never happen , money is the problem and its getting worse .
