Wigan v Blackburn - That corner

[Ross]

Been neglecting this place a bit recently, apologies. Feel it necessary to post about the corner that resulted in Pedersons goal.

I think we all know what should have happened, but how did it go completely un noticed by any of the officials?

I think the main reason was that Adnre Marriner was getting into his position for a traditional 'long' corner, but in stead of side-stepping / or running backwards to be able to keep the ball in view.

However, if I remember correctly, there was some pushing and shoving in the box, and he could well have been trying to sort that out. That said, in that position maybe he should have blow to sort it out?

I think the officials were partly to blame but I also think that it was blatant cheating on Pederson's behalf and think that that incident was just as bad as any "diving" that goes on
