That was grim watching today and hard to stomach. Totally outplayed and outthought in all areas. We were so ineffective and lethargic, lacked creativity. West Brom wanted it more. Nolan Song and Noble useless. Cresswell and Tomkins also out of sorts. Quite the worst I have seen this season but not sure when we played well last discounting the heroic defending against Southampton. We just look cack.

Handball
Forums:
Discussing the Adrian red card affair has made me think about how the offence of handball is treated by referees. The rule book says:
"Referees are reminded that deliberately handling the ball is normally punished only by a direct free-kick or penalty kick if the offence occurred inside the penalty area.
"A caution or dismissal is not normally required."But I'm struggling to think (and maybe this is just my crap memory!) of an instance where handball is given, and the ref HASN'T booked the player. What do people think? Is my perception that refs are harsher than the rules specify, or am I just wrong and do refs often not book players who handle?
And if I'm correct, did this influence the thinking on Adrian's red card; because many Hammers fans actually thought it was a fair sending off! What I mean is: did people think it should've been a red card simply because even dodgy handball calls always seem to be given yellows, so as this seemed "worse" they thought a red was somehow warranted, even though it's certainly not in the rule book?
- Does any of that make sense? :-)
