Martinez one is clear. Not a big foul but stops a very dangerous counter by bringing down the player from behind. Always a yellow.

How does Justin escape a booking there? 
Why is he so whistle happy over the smallest things? Zero flow to the game

Dumb feck
Incredibly shit ref who fails constantly to have any control on games.
if we were playing any form of coherent football people wouldn’t be complaining about the ref
Our crappy play has no bearing on our need to complain about an inept referee.
People make this false claim every time a shit ref is mentioned. As if its not possible for both to be poor.
It's another half of terrible refereeing. I just gave up when I saw 3 minutes added
Newcastle have wasted at least 10 minutes between taking ages to play any setpiece and constantly feigning injuries.
The Almiron dive on our left hand side was the type of you dive you see referees give an instant yellow for. The delay between the challenge and him going over was huge even in real time. Can't believe he bought that.
Dan Burn slapped the ball out of Dalot's hands earlier to stop a throw in so he had extra time to trundle back to his half. Clear booking right? Wrong.
He has since been booked, but if the referee does his job Burn is either off now, or more likely, can't make a challenge to stop our attack.

Wanker
He really is a deer in the headlights. Clueless on how to referee a game.
He’s a terrible referee.
Even if it’s not a goal, how’s that a yellow

for attempting to embarrass the wannabe coppa
That’s 2 clear goals he’s robbed of us this game. Prick. They should have subs for refs.
we’re clearly his sub.
He's had a poor gane
how long’s left on his contract? he’d fit right in imo.
Him and that Gillett on VAR are as incompetent as they get
To scared to make a decision thinking var will fix it. Could be 3 penalties today, 2 1 to us
Coward of a ref, Burn should also be off.
This. Burn has made 3 different bookable offences.
He just has no control of a game and no consistency, either way. A really standout poor ref l performance amongst regular poor ref performances.
Yellow cards: 3 to United and 1 to Newcastle.
They have one player who should had 3 by himself!

Nothing changed.
Blatant botch job from Pawson. He’s not even hiding his bias.
Yep. Should be.
Abysmal.
He's earned himself some time reffing the lower leagues
Only 5 minutes stoppage time was an absolute joke.
The fecker probably recieved a nice envelope before the game.

Fecking dickhead. Not necessarily the penalty situations, but the different standard applied to the two teams was staggeringly obvious. He played right into their hands, and did everything to help them to a point.
There must have been 5-10 minutes of actual football played from the 55th minute to full time. Every possible excuse to give a Newcastle player a free kick and let him waste a minute.
My personal favourite was when two Newcastle players ran into each other and it was a free kick to them.

Yup, barely any football.
When the feck are refs/FA/FIFA going to get a grapple on time wasting. Eddie Howe is a disgrace for it. What sort of spectacle is that.
Punchable face, and that's without taking into account being a terrible ref.
It is not even the controversial decisions. Anytime a newcastle player dived he immediately blew the whistle as if his life depended on it. Additional time was also a joke.
