Watford denied again? (Pompey vs Watford 18/11/2006)
Another EPL game full of controversy ended with fury from Watford manager Aidy Boothroyd who not only disputed the Kanu penalty decision, but claimed two penalties for the Hornets! Video analysis shows that Kanu’s last minute pen was onside and that he was fouled, so the Portsmouth penalty stands. But the Right Result Panel has adjudged that a penalty should definitely have been given for a push by Noe Pamarot on Darius Henderson meaning that Watford should have been awarded a penalty. Unfortunately for the Hornets the Right Result Panel has also decided that their initial goal came from a corner which should not have been given as it should have been a goal kick. Which leaves the possible penalty to Watford for a handball by Linvoy Primus when the score was still 0-0. The ball clearly struck his hand - but it was accidental…
The actual result was The Right Result - 2-1.

Lets be realistic, ok so the ball did hit is hand, but did it denie a goal scoring oppurtunity? NO, was it deliberate? NO. So the rules of the game clearly state no penalty. If anything it struck his arm more than his hand.

no pen ball to hand, if you watch it the ball spins back towards his hand.
