I thought the ref was right to award both penalties, but I doubt if Wilf will get another one v Watford on Tuesday. Probably B’mouth should have had a penalty in the last moment of the match, and maybe the ref copped out of that decision by blowing for full time. Wasn’t Kevin Friend the ref who failed to award us an obvious penalty in the home match v Sunderland two seasons ago - a match won by the visitors with a late goal by Defoe ( who must love playing against Palace)?

That didn't even resemble a penalty. Ball came into the box and a forward jabbed it towards goal and upwards, it hit a defender on the arm; his arm was folded in front of his body and he was less than a foot away. Would have been a ridiculous decision. ============ The Ferret ============

It was good to see Josh King's foul on Jeff Schlupp being highlighted on MOTD. I hope that King is given a ban for it. I reckon it's highly likely that the set piece routine that won them their first goal included Josh King holding back the player marking Defoe, so that he would be able to get free from the man marking him. Jeff Schlupp's protests went unheard because the referee was looking at the ball. Although I'm angry about Benteke's decision to take the penalty, King's foul makes it all the worse. Roll on VAR which should put a stop to blatant cheating.

They they mention anything about our penalties? DIdn't get to watch, but the BBC website said Zaha might be "under the microscope" - is there anything actually there? [Link]

You can obviously called me biased in favour of my own player, but I really can't see anything wrong with that first penalty decision. The keeper seemed to clearly put his hands in the way of Zaha's feet. If that had been Hazard for Chelsea, it would probably had been the usual 'oh Eden has such clever feet, the keeper is always going to make a mistake like that'.

Roll on VAR which should put a stop to blatant cheating. It wasn't as if Schlupp was blocked, he was actually dragged back with both hands, how the officials missed that. Defoe would not have scored the first one without that intervention. But his second was pure class. I remember Dougie Freedman scoring one like that from the same side of the field perhaps a little further out. It messed my bet up as i had AJ first goal scorer and i had the correct score up until that wonder goal.... £380 up in smoke!

Re B’th’s first goal, shame that cheating is now incorporated into training pitch strategies. It seems players are two steps ahead of the officials. Regrettable that there is no longer sportsmanship in sport.

How can E Howe say are first penalty was dubious but he can sort out a corner routine where one of our players is dragged by the shirt out of position.Laughable really.

You should read the view of the bournemouth fans.......'a points hard to take when every tackle is a penalty'. 'Zaha must get a ban'. 'Our defenders should hAve know Zaha would throw himself to the ground at the slightest touch'.
