Clarets deserved penalty in Rovers match

We will now have to wait until next March before we get another chance to end our long wait to beat the old enemy down the M65.

Now I know I am bound to be biased, but surely it is time to look at the laws surrounding the professional foul on a player who is through on goal.

Danny Ings was cynically denied a goal-scoring opportunity in injury time on Saturday. The offender was rightly sent off but all Burnley got for their troubles was a free kick 40 yards from goal which came to nothing.

Surely the law should be changed and a penalty awarded.
