I understood that the club have been looking forsuitsble land to develop as a Training Base ever since Jimmy Harvey was manager but with little if any success.
Under JH they initially came to an agreement with Middleton Fc to use their ground but it proved totally unsuitable due to the poor condition of the playing surface. Then when Sammy Mc took over they used the Preston Sports Centre followed by a pitch near the Royal Albert Hospital near Lancaster followed by....
The Uni has been used for nearly 3 years I think with an increase in its facilities this season. I doubt if the original plan to purchase some land to develop has changed due to the lack of available and more important suitable land for such a use.
The Uni is ideal but the pitches used need work on them to combat the risk of injury which has been on the increase this season. Somehow I can't see any changes to the current agreement in the future.

If that is the case, then no-penalty is the correct decision, as I understand it. The Law didn't change, but interpretation did. If the ball strikes the arm or hand, it is handball regardless of intent, unless it comes off the player himself, then strikes his arm, in which case it is not handball unless there was clear intent.
Any refs out there who can confirm/clarify?

The above offences apply even if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from the head or body (including the foot) of another player who is close.
Except for the above offences, it is not an offence if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm:
* directly from the player’s own head or body (including the foot)
