Penalties From 'Wall' Handballs

[TijuanaTim]

As a long time manager/coach I make a point of talking to refs about this particular issue prior to games, specially as I have two players with thunder in their boots. It is like this - the wall is gonna be ten paces away, the members of that afore-mentioned wall are 100% aware that the ball is going to be kicked hard towards them right.

 

Well in that case (I tell the ref), they have ten yards to make their minds up whether to man-up and take it or get out the frigging way, but certainly NOT use their hands or arms FFS, however 'accidental' they may claim it is.

 

Damned hard peno on DMG, but keep your arms down you Jessie or 'man-up' if not don't complain.

 

For the record it hit him on the back of the head, but the ref as he did not have the benefit of 10 different angle replays...mind you that useless tvvot should be 100% before giving a peno in that situation.
