Is this cheating?

  1. 1. No. I'd expect Latics to do the same in a similar situation.

    • Yes. It would be wrong if Latics were relegated because two teams refused to compete
    • No. I'd expect Latics to do the same to guarantee survival.
  2. 2. If yes, what penalty should be applied?

    • Nothing. But the rules should be changed.
    • Deduct the point both sides gained and relegate Barnsley.
    • Just fine both sides.
    • Relegate both sides.
    • I voted "no" - so there.

In what way was the goal keeper not keeping possesion?

Some likened it to teams like Barca keeping the ball , the difference is that nobody was trying to take the ball from him, or challenge him to make him pick it up.

Negativity within the context of a normal game is completely different to two teams deciding how long a match should be.

It's not like they spent the entire 90 minutes passing it back to one another. It was four minutes when they'd been informed that Peterborough had conceded and both teams were safe.

 

Nothing at all wrong with it. Watch soccer saturday and throughout the game Dowie was saying it was 'end to end' and a 'thrilling contest'.

Damien who?

 

I'm guessing that's a son of the devil reference.

 

This and the Man City corner flag fiasco reminds me of the surreal time when Inter were trying to win Serie A on the final day from Juventus and Roma. All they needed was a win and they were away to Lazio who had nothing to play for and whose fans hated Juve and Roma. When Lazio led 3-2 their own fans booed their players and cheered on Inter! They ended up winning 4-2 which cost Inter the title.
