Jesus Christ. This place is like RAWK with the victim playing over every tackle.

Casemiro is the new Nani.
Every tackle? Did you see the fecking "challenge" mate? Of course we're going to be pissed off that the same ref who watched Casemiro's challenge and deemed a yellow card an obvious mistake then watches that and deems it a yellow. He's also the same guy who didn't think Ricardo Pereira on Felix was even a yellow. Surely you can understand the frustration with him being lenient in all situations apart from the one which is the least dangerous and requires the highest bar for an intervention.

But referencing it after every single tackle in every single game domestic and abroad?

We lot a game against Spurs because one of their players swung on Cucurella’s hair like Tarzan and threw him to the ground. We moaned for a week, not a decade.

Had you been in a top four race that was impacted by that result I'm sure it'd have been mentioned a bit more. I also bet it would've been mentioned more if there had been numerous instances of hair pulling that resulted in players being sent off every weekend.

Plus it's a little bit unfair because it was Mike Dean on VAR and he has no clue about hair pulling, to be fair to him.

Feck. Cognitive dissonance. Just realised that Newcastle losing is a huge boost for Liverpool. But I would also really enjoy watching Newcastle losing. And hate watching them win. I may have to stop watching.
I was just coming online to post more or less the same thing :lol:.

I was happily supporting Leicester in my mind before I considered the implications of it....fecking Liverpool

That’s the worst argument I’ve ever heard. A top 4 race? It was the 4th game of the season.

Commentator said at the beggining of the game they can lose both games and still be in top 4. Did not fell to check if true. Don't think so, if we need a point they do too.

Are you being intentionally dim? My point is that if you'd been sitting one point behind us at this stage of the season then that decision might have been referenced a bit more.

Their GD is 7 better than Liverpool's so a big goal swing would be needed in that instance. But Liverpool are playing Southampton on the final day...

You’re calling me dim yet sobbing uncontrollably over a tackle that happened ages ago that has had no impact on your season. You’re in the top 4 and will finish there. Pot, kettle…

You're the one that sounds hysterical moaning on an opposition forum.

Sobbing uncontrollably? :lol: Jesus, come off it.

United fans on United forum moaning about decisions being much more lenient for other teams. Call the police.

Imagine the absolute rage if Bruno had scored that after his horrific challenge earlier.

Nice to see another team other than us struggle to score against weak opposition for a change

Dean Smith has no business managing in the PL. I hope we won't stick with him in the Championship.
Ye he’s awful. Surely there’s a better manager out there than him? Someone better would have kept you up.

Ok. Take 1 point from that game, you'd be 11th on GD with no hope of making 10th... But you'd be winning the bottom table at least. This definitely impacted your season gravely. What a scandal.

He's utterly shit, I'd rather have Shakespeare in charge than him.

We went for Potter and then for him, I think. Might've asked others but I don't know about them.

Should've gone for Dyche, he knows the drill and was available.

Baffling how Leicester ended up with him when you have the like of Wolves and Villa getting Lopetegui and Emery in.

Between that and the keeper situation... are you guys just skint or something?

I don't get this? If Leicester hold on this is a huge boost going into the last game which will be at home to west ham who will have their focus on the European final.

They have a better gd than Everton forcing Everton to have to win on the final day.

I get a win keeps it in their hand but Leicester have something like 1 win in their last 14.
They would be better off going all out at home than being silly here at Newcastle

I don’t get it. I mean whatever happens United need a point. Newcastle losing gives us a better crack at third, no?
