Semenyo sneaked ahead of the defender in the box and was clipped from behind, then Matt was held back just as he got into space. The ref and his assistant should have had an unobstructed view of both.
I watched the whole game 'live' on iFollow and would agree that both penalty shouts probably would have been given to the 'home side'.
I dont buy into the claims that the refs dont seem to favour the home side more than the away side but if they had happened in our area with 3,500 home fans calling for a pen I believe he would have given one , if not both to them.....
As for the questions about who Foulston would have been chosen in front of yesterday IMO it would have been Willmott.
That is nothing personnal about Willmott by me but he is an ok right winger . He is not a LEFT SIDED WINGBACK , he is not a CENTRAL MIDFIELDER , he is not a LEFT or RIGHTABCK , not a FORWARD in a front three but MF keeps picking him in positions and we see numerous posts saying that he was poor until he was moved into his ' natural position '.
FOULSTON is a young , raw centre half who may or may not make it. Given our injury crisis in that position IMO it would have been better to try him rather than upset the balance of the team by playing our best two attacking options in PIPE and BUTLER doen the wings as centre halfs and putting i right winger into a left wingback position. WILLMOTT has also had three very poor games previously for us so shouldn't have deserved a starting spot.
I know many wont like my comments but there you go , they are my views
