You're not suggesting Yeovil sack super Gary before he gets them relegated are you?
Hardly comparable is it. What we would give for a season at the bottom of The Championship.

I'd say it was borderline. Wasn't exactly in the Pepe Reina class of practically being on the penalty spot by the time the kick was taken, but he did dive forward off his line which *technically* should mean a re-take.
No it doesn't. He can dive whichever way he chooses so long his feet are on the line when the penalty is struck.

You'd moan from start to finish.

All depends on the type of football and who the manager was.

Yes, but it's all in whether he was on the line when the kick was taken - I'd have to see it again to be sure.

Which isn't what you said. You said, 'technically' it had to be retaken because he dived forward, no mention of him being on the line.

Just watched it again and Artur had his feet firmly on the line and only began to move as the kick was taken (as a proper chap should). Very low down the ranking of goalkeepers moving before the kick.

So in other words "technically" it should be retaken? With the emphasis very much on the quote marks around "technically"? I rest on your face, Harris. :)
