[the golden visionary]

Not sure how the contact caused him to spin in the opposite direction

So you come from behind, wrap your foot around the defender and it’s somehow a foul

Absolutely laughable decision

 

[PhilM]

Is Gordon getting another penalty for getting himself in the way of the ball again?

That is fluffin' absurd. Like, it's fluffin' nonsense. Phillips had the ball and is going to clear it, when Gordon puts his foot in the way. Nonsense!

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

How in God’s green Earth could that be a penalty?

 

[Lobworm]

I don’t really understand how this can be a foul when Gordon hasn’t played the ball

This. Gordon impeded the other player. Joke of a decision.

 

[Efcjake]

I don't know what this sport is any more

 

[mahermi1]

These are getting like Liverpool for pens and var these, they keep dragging them back into the game.

 

[nsno-chris]

The referees in this country are a joke

 

[kenada_blue]

Philips...worst ever west ham transfer

 

[PhilM]

I don't know what this sport is any more

I know it's said been many times by many people, but the game I loved is dead. It's gone.

 

[the golden visionary]

Regardless of how he left, Gordon really is one of the most unlikeable characters I've seen on a football pitch, Robbie savage levels

 

[Billy Dean]

Those tend to be given as free kicks when outside the area, I don’t see an issue with that decision

 

[bluenorthwarrior]

If he had touched the ball fair enough, but he didn't. Just shoving your leg in the way like that can't be a penalty, it is 'buying' a foul to the extreme.

 

[kenada_blue]

So you come from behind, wrap your foot around the defender and it’s somehow a foul

Absolutely laughable decision

He's vollied the player and not the ball. It's a pen.

Philips was lazy. Has been every game he's played.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

So you come from behind, wrap your foot around the defender and it’s somehow a foul

Absolutely laughable decision

Anywhere else on the pitch that’s a free kick to West Ham and no one bats an eyelid. Insanity.
