Yanga-Mbiwa went that. Snarly Newcastle.

He meant the foul, but I'm sure not to injure him like that. Really not sure how they still have 11 on the field.

 

[- Doing The Lambert Walk]

Seven minutes of injury time.

Another wrong offside call, oh my.

If I were Pellegrini I'd wander over to Pardew at the end and say 'not bad for an old ****'...

Pathetic Pardew 0-2 Old ****

I hope he doesnt shake hands after the game like he didn´t do with Mourinho at Stamford Bridge and afterwards said it was because he didn´t want to.

Edit: unfortunately he did.

That was also offside though. Trying to scissor kick the ball and missing it surely must be "playing the ball" as rules say...

FT: Newcastle United 0-2 Chelsea

That's clever.

That's clever.

Doesn't matter, we are still 3 points behind the Toon.

You didn't see anything...

Yet another abysmal refereeing decision, has he a had a brainstorm? Is he just wanting to be the centre of attention? Perhaps he fancies a charge of riot incitement? No, he is just not good enough.

It's not the referee's fault. It's the obscurity of the offside law. By the letter of the law, the correct call was made.

 

[Qwerty]

Just seen it.

Gotta change the rules. If you don't touch the ball, no offside. Keep it simple.

That is pretty much the rule now, the thing about interfering with an opponent is so obscure now we can basically ignore it. (it's a good rule, badly written). A really bemusing decision unfortunately.

Rule 1. It's never the referees fault.
Rule 2. It's never the referee's fault.

Have a look at the Guardian Site Poll to discover how many people agree with you..

2,0...all results are going our way (if you assume we would struggle to catch the teams at the top).
