The Barclays Premier League thread 2015/2016

Newcastle fans, why is Haidara playing and not Paul Dummett?

[Szumi]

Newcastle will be lucky to finish with 10 at the rate they've been going.

[FLiam]

Colocini own goal.

[DavidMarrio]

Arsenal's top goalscorer this season!

Didn't realise he'd moved this summer!! 

[Kaney]

I haven't seen any of the game today but another og? Really don't feel ever convinced we are handily in charge of a game this season.

Savage on commentary is very annoying. At least Owen is so boring that you can tune him out.

[FLiam]

The lack of goals is slightly worrying. We need a striker.

Newcastle fans' treatment of the referee is baffling, he basically got every decision right bar not awarding us a penalty.

I did not see the red on Mitrovic but having seen what I have already from him I'm assuming he pulled out a machete and just started swinging it around.

Hopefully he can calm down and start scoring goals, that'd be nice.

At the risk of going full Hughes, a glance at the yellow card count says completely otherwise. His inconsistency was horrendous, Anita booked for a single nothing foul (which Marriner claimed was his third or fourth) and when he finally found the balls to book a delicate Arsenal flower he then still decided to inexplicably book Wijnaldum for having the nerve to appeal it. I've not seen the red again but it Is one of those that's hard to spot on the field so will get the crowd against him, but his sheer inconsistency after that was pathetic.

Just gutting really, we were rarely threatened up to a few saves and a deflection got lucky, we deserved at least a point.

Coloccini's and Wijnaldum's yellow cards. Top, top decisions.

To be fair, Anita had made a couple of fouls before his booking. Mitrovic was definitely a straight red too. Colo and Wijnaldum were harsh though. The leftback for Newcastle is pretty shit mind.

He booked Colo for what I can only assume was lightly brushing Coquelin with his afro. It's like he saw them jump, saw nothing wrong, let play continue since he never signalled nor was there an advantage, looked around again, saw Coquelin was rolling around like a twat and thought 'Oh, he must have fouled him'.

That was bizarre. He gave a throw in, then thought to himself 'there must be a Newcastle foul somewhere', then pulled a yellow and decided on a free kick. I think he must have remembered it was a tv game.

Oh, and to add to the experience today is the first time I've ever heard anti-Semitic abuse at SJP, so thanks for that Arsenal.

I saw the Mitrovic tackle, and it didn't look like a red card to me.

Tottenham ain't it. 

 

We are 1-0 down. Sounds like going on a day trip with the missus is a good idea. 

[Szumi]

There is the Dejan Lovren we all know. Fucking terrible.

[Jimmy]

Stoke down to nine men. Charlie Adam sent off for a stamp. 

I really do hate Charlie Adam. 

 

[Gazz]

Everyone hates Charlie Adam.

Even Charlie Adam.
