Newcastle United (A) | Post Match thread

[remember arthur mann]

I'm not sure a red card like that has ever been recinded before. Wasn't an obvious error from the ref. Airborne challenge that connected. Seems.... strange.

As if it were corruption in action.

Definite red card for Tripper, out of control ,both feet off the ground and a cynical knee high challenge , and Hinchcliffe can f*ck right off , he couldnt tackle a decent breakfast when he played the game.

Just a thought… why wouldn’t Pep get some fresh legs in when Toon’s players were clearly knackered? It seems he doesn’t trust Grealish but I thought he could’ve given Dan Burn fits down the right flank for the last 10 or so. I felt we could’ve found the winner had Pep made a sub or two. Can’t be too unhappy with taking a point from being down 3-1 tho. Brilliant FK from Trippier. Newcastle are going to be a problem in the near future.

Just a thought, know the line up before you spout.
There's a good lad.

That is allowed though?

The ref gave a red initially - it could only be because he thought Trippier was out if control as he was airborne.

I predict many teams will drop points a st James’ park this season
Good physical team t

All depends if it’s in front of the Sky cameras, I predict they won’t play like that again this season.

Nope but sometimes it’s just better to say nothing these things can sometimes have a tendency to bite you on the arse as today proved ..

Grealish will have a great career as a manager if an off the cuff comment can turn Newcastle into 1970 Brazil.

I wonder how Phillips would have done in place of Rodri today. Worst game I’ve seen Rodri have in a while

Thought the foul on Kev was probably a yellow but close enough to a red for that to be given. Once the ref gave it there was absolutely no need to re referee it. Definitely no obvious error and thought ref did a decent job until VAR decided to question him.

Not playing Laporte was a ridiculous decision too ;-)

Pep thought he was culpable v Bournemouth. He needs to learn quickly that, at City, we pass when a team mate is better placed to score.

Absolutely. I see many are saying the same thing on this thread.
