And another pen. Amazing in a game of such magnitude

PGMOL / Prem already decided who they want up???

It's a contact sport. Contact alone does not define a foul. The attacker is diving before the contact, the slow motion has shown in.

Too many soft penalties ruining the game these days. Will need to be addressed as it is turning into Penaltyball. There are some interesting suggestions around as it's getting noticed how matches are hinging on "winning" penalties. Get rid of the penalty spot and take the penalty from where the foul occurred seems reasonable. Or even make the penaly area smaller, as players can be going nowhere out wide, so try and cheat a penalty. Needs to be deterred somehow.
Thing is that is all well and good I agree with you BUT unfortunately it does happen and they get given 9 times out 10, you can't then pick and choose when to give a pen especially in such a big game...

Forest will fit in well in the PL with the time wasting.

Clear and obvious bar being set very high today. Feel like it suits the refs that way as it looks like the live ref must have got everything right.

The second one looked more like a penalty which VAR should have intervened with.
VAR, making some people very rich! Terrible that it only helps in the most marginal of offsides. It’s completely useless otherwise

It's Huddersfield. Make them suffer.

Yes, terrible match, but already you can see we will struggle more against Huddersfield next season than Forest. Keep Huddersfield down with the Albion etc.

WHy does it always have to be so hyperbolic? Maybe it's incorrect, but it's clearly debatable. Either way, there's been far worse decisions every weekend for the past 50 years.
Yes but VAR is supposed to eradicate this and it clearly isn’t fit for purpose.

Forest way too deep. Given control away to a team they are better than. Bringing back bad memories of our semi

This! Making contact doesn’t automatically mean it’s a foul!! Infuriates me that people don’t see this.

Regardless of the rights and wrongs of decisions etc, the right team won in terms of football and from a Wolves perspective. Hopefully that's one relegation place booked for next season!

This is the fundamental problem though, always has been. If there's not enough contact to bring him down, but there is enough to unbalance him and make him waste the chance, what's he supposed to do?

Looking forward to my trip to Forest, one of the better away games, hopefully see more of the game than last time.

Shocking game, shocking refereeing again from John Moss, terrible Ref! Slightly glad Nottingham are up over Huddersfield though, however imo they were both pens against Nottingham, seen softer pens given against Wolves the past few seasons!
