Newcastle United (A) | Post Match thread

[Tolmie scores]

Knee high and no attempt to play the ball

Two feet off the ground..wait till one of ours does that

Actually I’ll take the point after that complete mess from about 25 minutes to about 50 minutes. Then the response of champions. All a bit scrappy and why we were so terrified of saint whatever his bloody name is and I don’t know. Kyle just mark him and send him wide. But what I do know is I wish we could never have Hinchcliffe co commentate on the city game ever again he is so anti us. And generally the commentary team were getting totally giddy about Newcastle and ignoring some really good City play. Ah well. 7 from 3 is better than some we could mention. Thought Rodri had a really good game but looks like I’m in the minority over on the mom thread.

A very good point after a sloppy game from several players.
Very hard to pick a MOM today but I thought Dias was excellent when he came on and Rodri, as usual.

Okay big blue.

Cheers.

The red card was in no way a clear and obvious error so the VAR had no justification for asking the ref to go to the screen. Once he’s been told to look we all know he is under pressure from convention and the home crowd to overturn.

Sloppy sloppy sloppy

Passing was off all day.

Letting Newcastle run at us was a disaster.

Defence was all over the place. Midfield left Rodri on his own.

Positives:

Showed a lot of character to get back into the game. Haaland on the score sheet again.

Annoying:

That **** Hinch & Pep refusing to sub when players looked knackered.

Overall, early season form. Played a good Newcastle who will get points of alot of the top teams.

Improvements needed.

 

[Jung the foreman]

Fair result.

 

[christened at st marks]

Can someone please tell me the last time a straight "Red Card" was overturned in game by VAR.

On the grounds of it supposedly being "a clear and obvious error".

When it was anything but a clear and obvious error.

I can not think of a game.

Cheers in advance.

Must be a Rag or dipper

The matchday thread is normally an alternate reality - I would give it no credence at all.

Foden needs to look up/stop being greedy. At 2-0, that's a different game.

He's still young, hopefully he'll learn.If he can combine with Erl like Kev does then we'll score a lot of goals.
