Match Day Thread Toon v Leicester

This is the 4th time we have qualified for the champions league in the premier league era. That's 4 more times than the mackems or villa.

 

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....... OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

Would have been nice to win our last home game, but we did what was needed and got that point. Onwards and upwards.

 

He could have produced a red, and there’d have been no dispute. But there was no power in that tackle, bad as it was. A close thing. There’d be few in Var who’d have called him to the camera for that.

 

If it was pool we'd all have been crying ... Leicester fans must be annoyed.

The fact it didn't put everything into it and break his leg is irrelevant imo.

That's a red card all day long for me.

 

I can expect it. We should be aiming to win everything. Doesn’t mean we shall but that should still be our expectation

 

Been pretty consistently viewed by most ex-professionals that reviewed it as a yellow. Dermot Gallagher was on the radio on the way home and agreed the same.

 

I rest my case

 

Under what definition do you feel it was a stone wall red?

 

The fact he followed through and endangered the opponent... studs up above the knee .

It was a dangerous tackle.

If he saw red we'd have had no complaints whatsoever

 

I think it was the fact he didn’t follow through that made them give yellow

 

Same outcome as Jota’s kick to the head
Consistency at last

 

He mistimed it certainly but was in control, didn't lunge from a distance, pulled back and didn't endanger the opponent due to those mitigating factors... Thank **** we can all have differing opinions.

Yellow. All day. Surprised it wasn't a red as we often get shafted, but if you actually read the laws - not enough of the boxes ticked for a straight red.

 

@Roy Munson - what are you going to **** the bed at every opportunity about now that we've actually got top 4? Running out of time for drama this season at least.

 

Sadly have to report that the Club have decided to take disciplinary action against a number of supporters following last night's game.

The Club had required supporters to be in their seats by 15 minutes before kick off and unfortunately a number of posters on here failed to comply with that direction.

Accordingly,

1. Chippy

2. Fudge

3. GG

4. ScotMag

have all been issued a de-merit and have to attend punctuality lessons until their time keeping improves.

 

I did warn them

 

Well, you know what it's like when @Magdadlorian absolutely must quench his thirst...

 

He’s laboured the ****ing non-red card for a ridiculous amount of time.

 

I warned us!!
