jake cooper the impossible man to foul

[new cross wall]

no matter how many times this season he gets pulled kick held he never gets a foul
have the FA changed the rules just for him or is it every ref can't see him cos his only 6'8

 

[cold blow]

Directive has got to be from above, every ref and linesmen we have cannot all be blind in every game.

From the BBC website:

The visitors' captain Tom Lockyer survived two strong late penalty appeals as he twice appeared to haul down opposite centre-back Jake Cooper at set-pieces, but the goalless draw was a fitting result.

How the fuck does not giving blatant pens lead to a fitting result?

 

[paddym]

Make him a paper shirt like the ones when your knicked, it would be ripped off every corner then the ref might wake up to it

 

[bazzwall]

Maybe 2 pens at Wembley will level things up

 

[Ulster Lion]

Every time the big man is in the opponent's 18 yard box, some cunt is hugging him, and pulling him down without the whistle being blown.
It's got to the point that we know we'll get nothing out of it.

The worst decision was in the first half when Carlton Morris backed into Cooper and wrapped his arms around him and the ref gave Luton the free kick.

 

[Bobwat]

This was one of the worst refs I have seen at The Den this season. How long have the FA allowed a ref with defective eyesight to carry on.?

 

[Overseaswall]

It's got to the point where a ref dosnt want to be the first one to give it now in coops favour as he will be the odd one

He was doing it the whole game mate.

 

[Lionman]

Sitting at home watching Brentford v Newcastle....take a look at the penalties given to Brentford.....on that basis EVERY claim we've made this season for fouls against Cooper totally justified and we'd be promoted already if converted

 

[TheOneAndOnlyGazza]

He was doing it the whole game mate.

I know, but that one occasion he was actually awarded a freekick as if Cooper fouled him.

 

[pastywall]

Good match report in the Sun from Rowett. He has counted 30 penalty shouts to Coops and we have not been given one. Bent as a nine bob note

 

[Lions21]

They seem to go 2 or 3 men on Coops. Better he waits outside the box then runs into it rather than standing still in their box allowing them to strangle or hug him. That way its miles more obvious when he’s brought down at speed.

made me smile a "new type millwall fan nearby" said he was going to complain to the fa regarding how shit the ref was, my brother turned around and said the way we use to complain yeras ago was clump the cunt lol

VAR /refs came into its/their own today.
Fucked up all over the place.

All refs are shit nowadays…it’s just that some are more shit than others

Ok hear this, leave cooper out the box. We have good headers of the ball, wallace, hutch and Leonard that’s enough. No arguements then.also try a different routine, teams no exactly what is going to happen. Put some thought or hard work into something different.we are very predictable. Predictable is easy to play against, our team spirit , never say die attitude and guts and grit won’t always get us there.

Agree we definitely need to vary it as it’s far too predictable but Coops needs to be in the mix even if just as a decoy as he draws at least 2 oppo players to mark him giving our other players a bit more room to get on the end of the cross.

Teams are wise to our kickoff tactic of Cooper starting on the halfway line, Flemming passing back to Long who launches it long at Jake and are prepared for it to such an extent that yesterday Jake was manhandled and blocked 10 yards into the Luton half before the ball had reached Long and not an earthly of a foul being awarded

Having seen the MOTD panel comment on Brighton’s Dunk being held back at Tottenham I wonder what they would make of the treatment Cooper receives game after game? In the unlikely event we get promoted it’ll be interesting to see if VAR comes to the same conclusion!
