I think you could give it as dangerous play, he's definitely had those decisions go against him before but he did set himself up for that one which does make it a bit different.

 

[Alan]

A still frame is never really going to give you the whole picture, as it were.

 

[t3ch]

be mad about the penalty all you want but it's another game where we sat back and invited the loss

I'm not spitting bile at the ref or conspiracies for that

 

[Pablowolf]

What's the problem with calling someone a pussy?

Apart from being rude obviously

Some people are extra 'sensitive'...

If he connects with the ball, not really.

 

[Tony Towner]

Doesn't really change the gendered nature of either word.

Last I'll say about it, carry on.

You have an issue with pussy, but not nonce which was literally in the post above yours?

It has different connotations and historical usage in the US than here I would say.

How on Earth would Alan have any idea about nonce?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Does getting the ball make any difference?

Doesn't alter the decision on two footed challenges or wild lunges, the follow through can be just as dangerous even if there's contact with the ball.

Today Wood was nowhere near the ball but never any real threat of contact with Doherty either.

 

[PuntsWolf]

I’m still fuming.

-Our play in injury time.
-Neves not heading it to Traore under zero pressure. He tried it and somehow 50p’s it the wrong way. He does it and he runs up the other end and the games done.
-Us surviving the wood chance, only for the ball to be straight in our box again from the Goal kick. I wouldn’t know why as BBC didn’t fucking show it.
-Shite BBC coverage
-The penalty decision.
-Doc giving him a decision to make.
-Fucking Burnley
- All that meaning we went from good chance of 4th to fsvours for 6th and likely needing to win both for 7th.

Not happy.

It's a more offensive term than pussy imo, although I don't have an issue with either in the context they were used. Didn't know it was a purely UK term tbf

 

[Freddeno]

Still gutted about the decision and that bigger clubs get away with it..really pisses me off..and what VAR can do in certain moments and cant..bloody hell

no it doesn't.

 

[Tredman]

no it doesn't.

Take your word for it, but always seemed more of a virulent insult over there. Wouldn’t care less if someone called me a pussy here, whereas over there I’ve seen people get angry / upset.

 

[jd1981]

The last few moments of the last 2 away games have been very poor and probably very costly.
Hold on to that tonight and we’re still banging on the door for 4th and probably a certain for 6th, Spurs have Leicester and the beach boys in their final 2 games expect them to get at least 4 points maybe 6.

The fact that a female body part is used as an insult is the problem. If it's so culturally different between our two countries as "faggot" (pardon my use of it here), then I'll withdraw my complaint.

I have no idea what a "nonce" is. I've never heard it spoken out loud by any American. I only know it contextually as an insult, but couldn't even begin to guess at what sort.

Then so is cunt which is used constantly on here, including by myself. Words evole from their original meaning.

A nonce is a paedophile

It was a prison term which has crept into everyday use.

It stands for Not On Normal Communal Exercise and was used by prison officers/prisoners for sexual/vulnerable offenders. It's grown in the mainstream to become a term almost exclusively for paedophiles though.

Wow! I would never have guessed that. Just assumed it started as an abbreviation of a longer word.
