He sent off two of our players when we played you in 2011. The ****.

To be fair he's right, we are yet to produce a win aided and abetted by a truly woeful refereeing decision.
If a few mins into the Reading game, Dunk smashes Kermacunt and breaks both his legs and doesn't even receive a yellow, or a couple of mins into the toon game the ref BRANDISHES a red to Jonjo for shining his head, then we can certainly relate to this idiom.
The last time i remember something significant going for us was Burnley when the ball had clearly crossed the line by a country mile. Just a shame they had it in the net again 2 mins after

If Mitrovic had been sent off Newcastle would have appealed it and the spineless FA would have overturned it.

True but they might not have secured 3 points before that.
Following a through ball by Barton who shouldn't have been on the pitch. Lucky us

It would have been a second yellow so they wouldn't be able to appeal it
Feck me [MENTION=28805]lancyclaret[/MENTION] , of all teams to receive the rub of the green with refereeing decisions, after last season I would have thought you'd keep quiet and just smile smugly...... [emoji2]
The Barton debacle frankly was unbelievable..... you are right about the Arsenal goal though.

Big clubs always seem to get the decisions. Same in Basketball where the star players can 'travel' (even more than regular NBA players do) etc. and get away with that 'foul' time and again, not to mention charges etc. Certain teams and players seem to always get away with stuff and it's directly linked to the 'profile' of the player.
We just have to get our heads down and work hard though I guess, and 'keep our own noses clean'

Agreed
Should've had a yellow for the block
Then straight red for challenge on keeper
Rafa knows - took him off at half time

You mean like the stonewall penalty Burton had turned down in front of the north on Saturday?

I know the incident you're referring to but it wasn't "stonewall"
I was 25 yards away from it. It was absolutely a penalty. Stephens absolutely CLATTERED him, with zero possibility of reaching the ball. The only possible question was whether it was in / out of the corner of the area.
Somebody raised the inside/outside box afterwards (I thought it was definitely inside and a foul), to me the replay looked like it was on the line, so inside.

Has the FA taken retrospective action against Mitrovic yet but will it be ignored cos it is Newcastle who everyone bar us think should be in The Premier?

... from the local Newcastle rag.
An interesting take on the Mitrovic incident(s) in particular!
