Came off the defenders leg before hitting his arm.

The rules must have changed overnight

My point earlier! in this incident it was not a pen due to circumstances of ball hitting leg 1st from 2 ft... our incident seen lots not given but when its been seen by ref! Yesterday didnt matter what the circumstances was ref didn't see it linesman did and gave pen and it should have stood .

There was more reason for that to be overturned. When a shot or similar defects off part of the body it could be reasonable to say the player has little control over it. Mee made a deliberate header to a cross that he messed up.He had control over that ball and the penalty should of stood. We're being hoodwinked on this, the media in particular are portraying this as a typical uncontrolled ricochet. It was anything but.

Cant find a replay of the third handball incident and little has been made of it so I assume its ok.
