I hate seeing Newcastle doing well now

Shocking ref though.

 

Goal 1 - handball

Goal 2 - handball leads to corner and goal

Goal 3 - Robinson puts a great challenge and wins the ball. Free kick and booking and goal

 

I mean Sheff Utd have been crap but the goals have all had questionable decisions.

And as if Heckingbottom wasn’t angry enough last week !

I'd like to see another view of the 1st goal. Did ball play hand or did his hand play the ball? I initially thought the latter, but it was glossed over by announcers that I was left guessing I saw incorrectly. 

Question is whether it was glossed over as it was Newcastle though

Nobody even bothered to try and correct him. Punditry nearly as poor as the officials.

Par for the course, ex players who offer very little beyond stating the obvious.

And some say they might make good officials.

 

Not sure really - probably end appearing to be as bias or inconsistent.

Stop it.  They're already dead.

Plus the amount they earn now not a chance anyone from the top two leagues at least take on the stress and abuse of a reffing gig after retiring.

What’s the point in Sheffield United and Luton being in the Premier League? Actually embarrassing. 

[Bordersfox]

This could get embarrassing

[Bordersfox]

Oops and Gordon scores.

Convinced Burnley, Sheff and Luton are already down

Robinson did not put in ‘a great challenge’. It was a yellow card all day long.

My Mrs: "5-0? They must be rubbish. Why has that ugly boy got the same haircut as Princess Diana?"

Our 0-9 is in danger of being matched or beaten.

That Spurs midfield is tasty, enjoyed watching them today

Good to see Maddison doing well. Such a joy to watch him play football.
