Why not? They don't get given out like favours at a wedding.

You are in the opponents box probably less time collectively than any other side.

You've conveniently ignored the fact that we actually have been fouled a lot in the box without getting anything. A couple of stone wallers, a lot of 50/50s (2 today so far) yet no penalties.

Im not ignoring anything. Prem refs are like that, we went a season and a half before getting one.

The more you are fouled in the box the more likely you are to eventually get one. You have probably been in the box less times than anyone else, meaning you have probably been fouled less than anyone else.

Keep plugging away and you will get one eventually.
