46 games this must be a record in the modern era, 46 games without a penalty which spans over 16 months unbelievable. I Think i shall send an email to the f-a.
New season, nothing changes BRFC fans whinging about penalties, surely you must have expected some stick when you made this post but for the record I didn't think either of the incidents were penalties.
What I want to know is why Ferguson wasn't sent off even though he was booked twice, I believe the ref said he booked Tugay but you and I know that is b******t as he was nowhere near the incident.
