Match Day Thread The Official Match Day Thread - Newcastle v Arsenal

Rubbish game.... Song should've been sent off. Barton should've been sent off.

I don't know if Gervinho dived or not, but his slap on Barton was a yellow at the least, especially considering the way Barton grabbed him.

 

Robbie Savage is such a tosser!

 

Commitment

 

Please, Joey, please please PLEASE do not tweet anything about this...

 

Well Song should have been off for the stamp. And was what Barton did to Gervinho any worse than what he and Nolan did to Scezney after the penalty in the 4-4...? Cos that was just a yellow too?

 

You obviously missed Song's off the ball leg stamp and Gervinhos slap in the face on Barton then? Selective ****ing memory, just like your whingy ****ing manager.

 

cheers mate, the exciting times of a toon supporter living in OZ, another 9 months of sleepless weekends

 

Oh ****....I didnt think about that. He probably will aswell.

 

Please, please, PLEASE do. He probably won't be able to see past the bag of frozen peas bringing down the swelling to type anything though.

 

Happy with a point, great performances from Colo and Saylor. Also Cabaye, when he did get forward, looked dangerous. Good to see Obertan played well, but I can see what people are on about with his concentration, a couple of times he stopped tracking the ball after losing it, but it was just yards away from him, amazing pace though and some very nice touches.

 

Give it a rest mate. Debating is all good and healthy and all, but if you don't go throwing insults around at the same time.

 

So it's Ok for Arsenal players to act in the heat of the moment, but not ours?

 

Obertan looked fantastic, I think he just lacks a lot of match practice to be honest. Run of games and hopefully his concentration issues should improve. He looked excellent on the ball, had good vision for some passes and his pace was incredible.

 

Obertan had a good debut, some of his touches were genius, like setting up Cabaye, however, I agree about concentration.

 

Fixed it for you.

 

At the end of the day Barton was stupid to pull Gervinho up like that, however everyone knows you can't raise you're hands to a player and that is straight red.

Also the song stamp should have been a red anyways, so it has evened itself out really.

 

For starters Barton did absolutely nothing to provoke Song apart from get the ball cleanly from him, does that warrant a vicious off the ball leg stamp? Really?

And if your players didnt cheat, for example GERVINHO, diving in the box, against a tackle which is strangely enough against one of his close friends Tiote then Barton may not have reacted in the way that he did, I'm not condoning the shirt grab whatsoever, but Barton didnt hit anyone, he merely grabbed his shirt, both could have walked but if anyone was going to it should have been Gervinho for raising his hands, thats an absolute no-no on the football pitch.

Both players acted like unprofessional twats, definitely faults on both sides.

So fack off back on your board you FACKIN COCKNEY MAPPIIT.

 

Dude, get a grip You're making a tit out of yourself. Much like Gervinho just did

 

I don't feel so bothered about missing out on Gervinho after watching Obertan.

 

I like how the pundits are criticising Saylor for not commenting and saying that he couldn't see, did they expect him to stir things up more? Also I'm pretty sure Gervinho's arm went behind Saylor, who was concentrating on breaking things up, not watching Gerv's arms.
