tannerall 25,935 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Should our goal have been allowed.I say yes, as Mohsni was watching the ball all the time, did not know where the goalie was, and did not deliberately foul the goalie.Goalie had all the options to go for the ball, go through the player, or wait at the goal.If Mohsni had not scored then you could argue it was a penalty as the goalie made the wrong choice to go through the player to the ball.

Zappa6995 3,684 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 More often than not I reckon it would be disallowed.Especially nowadays when keepers are a protected species. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenosebrad 452 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I seen it on the TV when I got home I dont see why it wouldnt stand, he got his head to the ball first, in my opinion the keeper fucked up and he knows it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albion players were devastated getting interviews afterwards.Can agree with that more as even though the goal was legit, our luck with referees this season would suggest they dont always apply the rules of the game properly.

better than all the rest 153 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I haven't seen it yet on the TV, but I thought their keeper bottled it, but even when the ball went in I was standing waiting on a flag but it didn't come. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalkeepers are over protected. I mind McGregor got away with one in an old firm game a few years back. Think it was Fortune that put it in the net, there was nothing wrong with the challenge though but the reff spared McGregors blushes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dummiesoot 16,037 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 this. Anybody suggesting anything else is delusionalTheir keeper should have punched the ball he didn't moshni got to the ball first before he contacted the keeper. Fair dos ordinarily the keeper would wrongly get the benefit of the doubt in that instance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

legalbeagle 3,734 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I thought at first that it was a foul, and that usually a ref wouldn't allow it, but it was the correct decision, there was no foul. Not sure why any Rangers fan would want to see a foul that didn't happen, tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmytto 220 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I see no problem with it. Mohsni contested for a high ball fairly, with only eyes on the ball. He didn't impede Parry in any way and it was a usual contest which I'd expect to see in a game, only Parry screwed up by trying to catch it instead of punching it when he was under pressure.Case closed.
