An Angry View of Northampton game!!!!

Today's An Angry View is sponsored by The Blonde chick in the Devonport End when there is a game in play its the perfect time to start handing out surveys for fans to fill in .

*on a side note what where those surveys about anyway?

Like last week i had a text on the way to tge ground only this week it was saying the opposite Reid is starting!! great i thought as i got to the ground i over heard a few fans moaning we are playing 6 defenders so after i took my seat and read the teams and saw both Talbot and Mellor and THD where playing i was puzzled as what the hell were playing.

first half
the game started off lively with northampton knocking the ball about but at this stahe it dawned on me the formation was more 8-0-2 so most attacks where trampled down. Northampton should have been 1-0 up if the striker i think it was gray got his foot half n inch more forward from a floating cross, very close you should see it and see if charlie (who did film it from a good angle) decides to put that in or tonight if the bbc decide too.
How duke didnt get booked for handing outside the box was a joke. even if it was by mistake or not it warrants a card and i have seen keepers get red for it before.
O'coonor who was playing all that good scored a great goal from outside the box and worth seeing again. if anything the way northampton where playing as they were in control of most of the half they looked more likely to score so this was most welcome.

second half
saw argyle sitting for most of it on the 1-0 never really looking for the 2nd however northampton never looked in any danger of scoring themselves either. for the goal Reuben played in Alessandra who decided to walk in the 2nd rather than shoot it for some reason but a goals a goal not sure what brand of weed the sponsors were smoking to vote mccormick mom as he didnt do alot in truth. THD would have been my choice.

overall it was a vital win and 3 points that puts up back in the playoffs on goal difference with newport in 8th so we got to keep grinding out wins pretty or not and no more slip ups to secure one of the 4 spots on offer. I dont feel we will go till may without another slip up however

Sparks was screaming for a red card for their keeper when he handled outside the box, I'm not sure of the rule on that one but to not even get a yellow seems bizarre.

Surely it's only a red card if it denies a goal scoring opportunity. It didn't.

Deliberate handball is a yellow card offence. So the question is: was it deliberate handball?

The ref obviously thought not.

However accidental handball is not even a fee kick and a FK was given.

So it was neither accidental nor deliberate.

God knows what it was.

If a keeper handles the ball outside the box he will only get a yellow card unless he has prevented a goal scoring oppitunity then it is a red. according to  the fifa rules.

i trust drummer boy filmed it then we shall know on onday but its very rare a keeper gets away with handling outside his area....unless your fabian barthez of course.

11 games left and looking at the fixtures, Argyle must go for wins against - Oxford (a), Dagenham (a), Cheltenham (a), Portsmouth (a) and Carlisle (a). I would take a draw against Shrewsbury (a). Total = 16

As for the home games, Argyle have got to go for the three points when they play Newport, Mansfield, AFC and Tranmere. I would take a draw against Burton. Total = 13

If Argyle can get those twenty nine points, that will leave them on a final total of 84 points. They could even sneak automatic if other sides above them have a major wobble.

McCormick - 7, Nelson - 8, McHugh - 7, Hartley - 7, Mellor - 6, THD - 4/5, O'Connor - 6, Talbot - 8, B.Reid - 7, Alessandra - 5, Reuben - 6.

too high

Cautionable offences - A player is cautioned and shown the yellow card if he commits any of the following seven offences:
unsporting behaviour
dissent by word or action
persistent infringement of the Laws of the Game
delaying the restart of play
failure to respect the required distance when play is restarted with a corner kick, free kick or throw-in
entering or re-entering the field of play without the referee's permission
deliberately leaving the field of play without the referee's permission

Sending-off offences
A player, substitute or substituted player is sent off if he commits any of the following seven offences:
serious foul play
violent conduct
spitting at an opponent or any other person
denying the opposing team a goal or an obvious goalscoring opportunity by deliberately handling the ball (this does not apply to a goalkeeper within his own penalty area)
denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity to an opponent moving towards the player's goal by an offence punishable by a free kick or a penalty kick

SO - the ref deemed it not sufficient to be unsporting or denying so no card.
