Well, I don't see that many defenders throwing their arms vertically up. That was a definite penalty. Anyway, life goes on.
Defo hand ball, the issue was the position. Body inside box, hand outside...what a time to give it too! Would have been a belt in the bollocks to lose that game....Moro, because of his all round efforts is prone to a penalty or two!
Swings and roundabouts, but we should have won that game. Were we the better team or were Newcastle just sh*te? I'd like to think we were the better team, but my heart says Newcastle were just sh*te (on the day).. If we play like that against Udders then there's no reason we can't nick all 3 points.

I think Saturday is a bit of a hypothetical decider for us. Depending on the result.
2 games in and it’s still too early to see who we have to spat with for the bottom 3 spots. I had Brighton in the mix but not so after watching them yesterday. Huddersfield can’t be rated as they’ve played 2 of the likely top 6. West Ham and Fulham are both pointless but cannot see teams with some of their players struggling enough. Watford have been sensational. Burnley. Well perhaps their europa journeys will stymie them? Wolves. Unlucky v Leicester and lucky v Everton. Again they’ve got enough goals in them to negate their suspect defence. Southampton. Unsure what to make of them. So in a nutshell it’s going to be as we all knew with our powderpuff attack, a daunting task.
Nin - I had Southampton to go down last year and they only escaped by the skin of their teeth. I don't think they'll be so lucky this time around. They're very ordinary and only the arrival of Ings (who we should have got ) will offer them a chance. I'm sure they're a club that Warnock will target along with Huddersfield amongst half a dozen others. I know Man City are a different class but Huddersfield were clueless how to deal with it yesterday. They'll go down and Wagner will be gone I said well before the start of the season that Fulham will come unstuck trying to play the better sides off the park - I don't think they can adapt tp playing a different type of game for each of the sides they'll face. For me it's Southampton, Huddersfield and Fulham to keep us out of the bottom 3 - and that'll be enough for me this season.
