Shocking penalty decision for Stoke, Moses clearly cons the MO. Should he be done by the FA for 'cheating'?

Also what do you take on Garry Monk's comments?

From Oliver's view it does look like rangel (i think) pushed moses, though contact was minimal!! Incorrect decision, but can see why he got it wrong...
As fro gary monk, his comments were very unproffessional and he will no doubt be charged by the FA .
and i do think moses should be charged, as should all divers. But that isnt on the agenda for the FA currently so nothing will happen
 
Yip a dive.

From Oliver's view you can see the defender put hands on Moses.... Very soft though and unlucky for swansea.
 
Awful decision, but can totally understand why he gave it. If only the FA took a stand and punished divers.

Deserves praise for the Swansea penalty though, excellent decision.
 
Gary, Gary, Gary [about Mike Riley] "It's poor leadership." Grow up.

Poor leaders consistently refuse to acknowledge their own shortcomings and shift the blame elsewhere. There is always someone made a scapegoat. Your bathroom mirror recognises this as something very familiar.
 
As you said Matthew, so glad to see he gave Swansea's penalty as it's something that riddles the game and yet most referees don't have the bottle to give it. He does deserve praise for that.
