Well i mean thats a bit much considering youve had a couple yourself. I agree that, that is a stinker but its not like the refs are targetting you.

I can think of a few in the last few games

Wow.

Maybe just because the ball was already out of the way before any contact, not that it should really matter.

That is the only thing I can think. But then it is an off the ball challenge which is worse. If that was a defender or a Newcastle player sliding in and catching someone late it would have been a penalty/foul and a yellow. I just don’t get the logic that it is not even a foul.

The Laschelles push on Chamberlain?

It goes both ways.

Yeah, I did point out that we were lucky on Thursday, as we could/would have been down to 10 if you didn’t score your second goal, but that’s 100% a pen against TAA as well and the push should have been a pen also, we have had some very poor decisions against us this season though

 

[Maundie]

Anywhere else on the field of play the ref is blowing up and giving a foul as it's off the ball, penalty area and it's not a foul, really poor reffing that but what on earth is VAR doing

Sometimes VAR gets ignored when it’s against a top6 team

 

[C Kent]

Never a pen, the Newcastle lad has moved into the keeper looking for contact

It isnt 100% a penalty at all. Even if it was...the way you describe the events means you got off lightly

Are you blind?

Go and have a look, that’s exactly what I said. “all in all 3-1 is probably a fair result”

 

[C Kent]

Nope, he stops following the ball and ensures there's contact. Could easily have avoided the keeper if he wanted. He knows the chance is gone and is looking at the keeper the entire time.

Learn the rules fella, it’s a foul

To be fair you have a point. He does stop his run but i also think its rash and silly from Ederson.

What you mean just like the Leicester city penner against us not two weeks back?

Colour me shocked that this kind of crap goes against but never for us.

Fully expecting a softer than soft pen to be given against us in the next 40 mins

Thiago out with covid and Hendo ill (not covid) - our midfield today is going to be fun. Milner, Keita & Ox at a guess?

 

[omnomnom]

Lol as soon as some midfielders come back Rona strikes.

 

[C Kent]

I already know them, its not a pen if the attacker initiates contact, which he does

Morton, Milner and Ox is my guess.

That is a bit boring mind you.
