I would really respect the EFL if they said "Well, cheers and all, but we think we'll pass him on to the Vanarama."

Why should Championship teams have to put up with bad referees?

Totally agree, it's a strange system. The officiating down in League Two has been appalling this season as well.

Rashford is out of Man Utd's squad today, BUT FOR WHAT KAMMY?!?

Have to say it seems more likely the latter, but Fab is also a parrot for the agents so who knows.

You'll have to pay for his live show to get the REAL reason.

[Twist]

Antony, £ for £, has to be one of Man U's worst signings. My head would explode if he played for my club.

[Colly]

Hilariously bad, which is good for everyone else.

[METALMAN]

If Rashford is only allowed to go out after Man Utd win he’s not going to have very many nights out, is he 

[Baddar]

Antony slows down so many counters because he always plays with his left foot, so instead of actually progressing up the pitch, he switches to his stronger side and looks the other way.

There was an argument last season that despite not providing many goals or assists, he was solid defensively, but he's been pathetic in that regard today as well.

[Baddar]

That was shit.

Neal Maupay actually scored a goal. Who knew he could do anything other than shithousery!?

I certainly didn't.

Officiating implosion at St James Park right now.

[lanky316]

It could be a long day for Newcastle, that was a desperate act to try and reduce them to 10 men for *checks note* having a player clattered by a player late, again.

Thought a yellow was fair

Thought the ref booking the players for being mouthy gobshites was fair too

3 Newcastle players booked for an Arsenal foul, Guimaraes elbows Jorginho in the head and kicks the ball at an arsenal player in anger with nothing. Ref has totally lost it.

Carra thinks Bruno doesn't deserve a red card because he purposefully, off the ball, smacked Jorginho in the head with his forearm, rather than purposefully, off the ball, smacking Jorginho in the head with his elbow.

 

[lanky316]

eah Guimares was ridiculously lucky and a further sign of the ref and players losing the plot. It's one of those games where players "see what they get away with" and little late hits and stuff being unpunished escalates it. I do think it's a close one on the challenge that led to things spiralling. He finally makes contact low down but he flies in there off the ground, it's one where I think if it had been a red, it probably won't be overturned same as the yellow. Can't tell with how much things are refereed these days but half time came at a good time as both managers can try and calm the players and reset.

[gunnar hendershow]

I was stunned Bruno didn't get sent off and after review they determined "no violent conduct". All the tempers and the general ugliness of the last 15 minutes or so of that half are fully on the official though, completely lost control.

[Kaney]

Ball goes out of play, Gabi is pushed down and Joelinton is offside but fuck it, let it stand.
