We have had 3 penalties this season the last being in October. None since we have been top of the league. Is that just a coincidence ? The reason to ask that question is some of the decisions in recent matches for example.
Against Bristol City when Campbell was wrestled to the ground when he had a tap in from 2 yards. The lineman was right in line and the ref not too far away. The most blatant penalty not awarded.
Against Brighton when Ballamy was brought down inside the box, a free kick awarded just outside.
Against Boro when there was a handball all be it from a short distance but it was going in.
These are match changing decisions that can define a season. Its about time that our luck change and we have a share of the 11 that Palace have been awarded. We have been awarded 3 between Aug - Oct and Whitts scored all 3. Lets hope that we do get a few on the run in.
