It seems that the rule requiring a deliberate hand ball doesn't apply any longer. Or does it? There is a need to clear this up finally as there is too much uncertainty and inconsistency amongst referees.
Our classic handball incident involving joe cole showed me that no one understands the current rule not even our esteemed manager. Are players supposed to put their hands inside pockets which can be sown onto their shirts. Or is it time that we started to look at employing players with no arms.
Cole did not handle deliberately did he so its not a pen, similarly hulls player didn't handle against Tottenham. Or has the rule changed? Anyone know? |  |

Then you would have two or 3 pens a game and free kicks all over the pitch. No, there must be intent to gain an advantage from handling. It's the interpretation that needs to be cleared up. For instance a player who slides in to make a block has to put his arms somewhere. He cannot remove them from his body temporarily. It's becoming a farce and needs clarity. |
But if your arms are outstretched and the ball hits them then you've gained an advantage from handling the ball, whether intentional or not. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Yup. That cross could have been nodded in. The main difference between the Hull handball and WH's was the ball hit the thigh of the Hull defender giving him no chance to move his hand away. Cole has turned his back but cynically his hand is way away from his body. Penalty. |  |
