I was wrong, it was a penalty

Up until today, I had only seen the video from iFollow Walsall regarding the penalty Roberts gave away in injury-time at Crawley on Tuesday.

Today I got to watch the situation from another angle when CrawleyTownVids posted a video on their Twitter. In this video, you can see Roberts going in way too hard into the back of the Crawley player.

I don’t blame Roberts for going in 100% in the situation but he came in too tough and violent and that is a penalty all day long. It looked a bit different from the angle from the iFollow video.

I had shouted no penalty up until now but I have to admit and change my mind and say that was a penalty.
