I personally dont think it was but I am not a ref.

I don't think it was, it's hard for the ref because Volz is running next to the defender, in my opinion he dived.

Never a penalty. But this is just our look at the moment. Some go your way and some don't. Its on the same lines as Ronaldo's dive but I don't even know who the player is who went down.

Was he shot?

No contact whatsoever. He clearly waited until he was inbetween two defenders to let his feet go from under him, thus making it look like he was tripped up by a leg. Dive.

There was contact, but it was a tangle of legs. It was a tough one for the referee, because from his angle, it looked a stone wall penalty. It looked like Boateng had cut off the Fulham player. Tough one, but no penalty.

We are just going though a very unlucky spell at the moment. It will end soon and we can finish in the top half of the season. OR on the otherhand, we will continue this slipery slope into the Championship.

Nah, you'll be fine. Not many times have I said that, but hey, we do need some derby's to play in you know!

Yeh it looked as if he just caught Boateng's leg. Unlucky to be honest.

Looking from the TV angle say no, he went down too easily...it's a mans game!

No it wasnt, as other people have highlighted there was no contact with Volz at all, he just went down like a sack of spuds, and the ref was in a difficult position to judge what happend.

No penalty for me, it was accdient..not foul!, Volz's feet catch Boateng's leg....have a watch....time between 26-30 sec. do repeat that you can see.;)
