I dont think so, think we got a bit fortunate with that one. Having said that, its about time a bit of good fortune came our way.

To be fair, he had his hands all over him, and he was going away from goal. No need to make that sort of challenge. For me its a penalty all day long.

Thought it looked soft at first but on the replay it's a pen. Bassong knew straight away too.

Crooks and Savage seem to think it was a nailed on penalty and thought whoever gave it away was stupid. I haven't seen it though.

I thought it was a definite penalty, i can't even imagine how you would argue against it being a penalty. Clear foul, in the box = penalty.
I thought that this thread may be about the Odemwingie incident early in the second half. Now that wasn't a penalty.

This one was a stonewall pen compared to last weeks The handball? I thought that was a stonewaller, his hand was in such an unnatural position. At the time it looked like Bassong moved his body into Guidetti as opposed to sticking his leg out and fouling him, hands were up though. Shall have to watch the replays again.

Of course it was a penalty, we were incredibly fortunate last week to get one IMO, but today was a certainty.

I'm really sorry but this type of thread does my nut in all the stats suggest it was a fairly even game so how we got there doesn't really matter. It's just this constant theme on this board that instead of starting a thread of 'what a decent point that was' we get this. Odd !

Blatant penalty. Bassong nowhere near the ball, clearly shoved Giudetti.

I've seen after match interview with norwich goal scorer and he said bassong said he did catch guidetti.

Whats the point in that? Last time I checked, this was a discussions board to discuss just about anything you like about the team?

There's never ANY question about penalties awarded AGAINST Stoke, fair enough. For me , there no question about any given TOO us! When the game,the authorites and refs, start to be fair and honest when dealing with Stoke, I'll start being a sportsman. I haven't seen the penalty, but yes, it was stonewall.

I thought last week was a penalty and so was today's so not really fortunate at all. That said, we don't get a fair shout from refs alot of the time so it was still fortunate in some ways I guess.

It was as clear a penalty as has ever been given and at the time that was obvious from the reaction of all the Norwich players and supporters who were r not happy with bassong. To question it you'd have to be pretty desperate eg Chris Hughton or you don't watch football very often

Hands above Your head and it hits them=penalty for me. They shouldn't be up there. Surely the rules state there has to be movement towards the ball so the hands can be anywhere so long as you don't move them to stop the ball. I actually thought the Arsenal played move his hand to stop the ball

It was one of those that you expect the ref. to give a free kick for anywhere else on the pitch ,but I was a bit surprised he gave the penalty , although he was obviously quite right to do so .I think a lot of refs. would have "chickened" out especially as it was against the home team, so credit due to Mr. Marriner.

Last week was a definite pen and although we were in the far corner at the other end today, that looked like a pen too. The Norwich players didn't create much at the decision, which is usually a good indicator.
