That is the honest to God wording of the FA's rulebook :clap2: I suppose the ref has to make a judgement call as to the player's intention if a tackle looks like it was reckless even if the player on the receiving end managed to dodge it.

Here's an incomplete list, just the last 12 months missing. Rickie Lambert's Penalties

If I may, the rules don't actually require contact just an "attempted" trip which this quite possibly is. Tough decision for the ref, although I'd be livid if I was a Villa fan.

Sorry, wrong, just for us but it includes shootouts. To the best of my knowledge he has only missed one penalty though in his professional career and that was for Rovers. I stand to be corrected though.
