Had this exact scenario yesterday in a 5-4 observation. Backpass takes a bobble, keeper slices it behind him and has to run and palm it away from onrushing striker. Muted appeal but my instinct told me that the genuine attempt and miskick meant it was OK so I gave nothing. However, spent the...

It went into the report, so the CFA can now decide what action they want to take over and above the normal sanction for OFFINABUS RC.
