On some occasions would the team that scored such a goal, realise it was a mistake and allow an equaliser.
Or even the attacker to stop playing.
To me it was borderline cheating.
I would have felt uncomfortable if we had scored it without opposition.

If the situation was reversed what do you reckon Cook would have done?
Banged it in (maybe) and not given it a second thought |  | | |

Unfortunate for us but, no foul, no whistle - this is not a charity. |  |

I think he had to play on, as for all he knew, Cook could have been faking it. |
I mean, that's what his Preston team mates would be doing in training, isn't it?
He had every right to play on. Tidy finish too. [Post edited 22 Dec 7:46]

Cheating Preston (Northern) Bastardos.
Back in the day (black and white and running stupidly quickly), they would have stopped the game, disallowed the goal and all shook hands. Cook would have had a bucket of cold water chucked in his leg and finished the game as there were no poncy substitutions like today.
The game these days is played by cads and bounders. And grimy Northerners. Flogging too god for them.
This sort of thing will bring down the Empire. You mark my words. |  | | |

No issues with PNE, fair goal although Cook would have stopped the goal but for the injury. He will be a big loss for the Team even with injured players injured players returning. I would imagine MC will miss his involvement during training as well. Big asset and a good pro. | | | |

With the amount of play acting by players nowadays their striker was well within his rights to score
He didn't know that Cook was genuinely injured and I would have been livid if it was the other way round and we stopped playing |
From a slightly different perspective, I was a little disappointed with Nardi. Perhaps he was a little distracted by seeing his captain go down in obvious agony and had one eye on that. But the shot was low and straight at him. It effectively went through him. For such an excellent shot-stopper it was unlike him to concede such a straightforward shot. | | | |

If their player had stopped and not shot because of the injury I would have had huge respect for him - applauding his honour and decency while suspecting him of a bit of look-at-me sanctimonious narcissism. However I’d want one of our players to continue and try and score. |  | | |

Agree with that Myke. That was my initial thought from my view in South Africa Rd
To a previous poster, Morrison is right footed, as is Dunne whilst Fox and JCS are lefties.
The goal was almost the only thing that I could stomach from Preston yesterday. Everything else about their behaviour was a disgrace, aided by a referee who failed to control them from the start. It was as if he had never heard about Preston, the kings of the 'Dark Arts'. | | | |

If Cook would have slipped instead, would we have been asking for 'Mr Cholmondley-Warner' and his team to demand the game start again? no, its an unfortunate 'happening', nothing more, move along the bus please. |  |

And from my view in SAR, it looked like the Preston forward fouled Cook and I gave the ref a right volley of abuse accordingly.
However, seeing the incident from the other side (video pictures) I got that completely wrong. I apologise to the ref for that (alone.)
Totally legitimate for the Preston guy to continue and score, no problem with that at all.
The rest of his side’s performance and antics were a disgrace though. |  | | |

Soft tissue issue in the sole of his foot according to Marti. There is no way Cook is going down like he was shot in that location for a soft tissue injury in his feet. It looked like a tendon snap either hamstring or the career threatening achilles but hopefully its soft issue .
You cannot possibly replace his leadership and experience but we do have cover back there at least .
Best wishes to SC |
Yeah I thought Achilles when I saw him buckle like that….hope I’m wrong! Get well soon Cookie! |  |

He isn’t the first keeper to allow the shot to go through his legs,and he wasn’t the last as Kohli’s shot did the same to Woodman. |  | | |

There would have multiple sudden medical events on here had that happened the other way around and we hadn't scored. |  |
