He trudg’d along unknowing what he sought,
And whistled as he went, for want of thought.

Re: not allowing a penalty kick that was good
lack of time could be one.Davet, why would he start his approach to kick it off the ground? What's his motivation?
But how do you know he isn't, and more to the point how do the opposition know he isn't?
If he approaches the ball what is your answer to the dialogue illustrated at #47
“We raise the watchword, liberty. We will, we will, we will be free!"
George Loveless 1834
Of more worth is one honest man to society and in the sight of God, than all the crowned ruffians that ever lived.

Re: not allowing a penalty kick that was good
Gents,
In the context of this discussion, it was a penalty kick. The fact thatmay have confused the referee. The player was entitled to replace the ball, in the context of a penalty. If you want to debate the "ins and outs" of the conversion scenario, maybe it's time to start a new thread.
Law 6.A.4(a) The referee is the sole judge of fact and of Law during a match.
+ The referee must apply fairly all the Laws of the Game in every match.
