Passed on Foul, so Passed on the Travel

Im thinking to myself, if you called the foul then I wouldnt have had to

But I kept it to myself as thats what you get when they mix up the crews from different areas this time of year...

So what were you looking at that you didn't see the defender get pushed?

As for the OP, I have seen this philosophy used on oob plays - "I didn't call the foul so I will give the ball back to that team" - but never on a foul that knocks a player to the floor. As others have said - late whistle on the foul would be excellent.

My other question would be - why didn't one of the other two of you (for the OP'er) come in and make the late foul call?
