I suppose we will never know. I do know that if he’d disallowed the goal and Newcastle had missed the penalty, the forum would have melted down!
Cheers.This is from the FA's rulebook...
"If the referee plays the advantage for an offence for which a caution / send off would have been issued had play been stopped, this caution / send off must be issued when the ball is next out of play, except for the denial of an obvious goal-scoring opportunity when the player is cautioned for unsporting behaviour."
Ah so it's just the rule that's bent, not the ref. Got it :-)This is from the FA's rulebook...

They even themselves out mate!!Red card or not, it's fucking lucky, once again.
Thanks, I needed a good laugh!They even themselves out mate!!
They even themselves out mate!!
He prevented a goal the second he handed it.He can only be sent off for preventing a goal. He didn’t, so he can’t be sent off.
Any hope ? I turned off when they scored the second
Then the level of outrage is related to the final score. Dippers win 1-0 with 10 men and everyone goes mental!!Unless they were down to 10 men
