Great to hear Howard Webb on MNF last night.
The foul ticked all the boxes yes, unless the simulation preceded the foul, in which case that would take precedence!!
What did Howard Webb have to say??
Keith Hackett said that simulation only takes place if there is no foul so even if Maguire dived, it didn't matter. Exagerating makes no difference.
Howard Webb was going through a number of issues. He was very impressive on a number of issues although he didn't specifically talk about the Wednesday penalty incident.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
