PL Games November 4/5/6

That twat Gordon looked offside to me but I'll take Newcastle winning this one.

[PeterParker]

Apology letter for arse coming up.

[sheblue]

Perfectly good goal.

[branny]

Wolves equalise at Sheffield. Looks like they will still be winless.

A horrible penalty decision against Wolves again gives Sheffield a 97th minute winner

No sympathy after the Korean guy incident.

Waddle not impressed : -

Arsenal have shown absolutely nothing going forward tonight. Absolutely nothing. It's been really poor from them.

[Harry Dowd scored]

Get in, that will do for me

[nottsblue]

Get in, that will do for me

And me

And even the rags winning hasn’t spoilt today. That’s how irrelevant they have become

[nottsblue]

Bayern 2-0 at Dortmund after 8 minutes. Sane assisting both and Kane on the scoresheet as well

Would like to see Kane win something, not in the CL though.

Ended up with another hat trick

No one ever scored more than his haul of 15 Bundesliga goals after 10 games. Glad he didn’t go to the rags

[PeterParker]

To be honest, I would have been fuming if that happened to us.
They failed to show other angles to confirm the ball stayed in, only that one, and of course people will react like that.

Watched the game and thought both teams were shite. Arsenal still need a striker and I think the keeper is a liability. Geordies are a proper nasty bunch. I know they were wound up but they were at it at ours first home game this season. That said, both will finish ahead of the red shite so that only leaves one chumps league spot.
Re the goal, Neville was banging on about nothing being clear - fuck me, if they cannot look at ir from ALL angles and decide, I'm actually with Arteta - what's the fucking point?

Atm they don't have cameras fitted for the ball out of play, maybe they will extend them in the future? Arsenal benefited from the lack of cameras at Wembley against us, when a ball incorrectly judged to have swerved out of play. We don't live in a perfect world. Personally I think use of more cameras and technology give a greater opportunity to achieve the actual fairest result, but I am not going to throw a dummy out and say the whole system should be scrapped because it's not 100% perfect all the time. A system is only as good as those controlling it.

I thought the biggest "embarrassment and disgrace" was Arteta's OTT and unreasonable reaction to Newcastle's goal. I think he should be suspended for multiple matches for bringing the game into disrepute!

For me the two-handed shove in the penalty area would have been enough to rule Newcastle's goal out. I am tired of VAR using a slide rule to disallow goals for offside only to ignore what I saw as a clear foul. I don't like Arteta, he is an over-emotional twonk, but his condemnation of VAR was in my opinion correct. We as fans shouldn't rub our hands in glee when VAR mistakes go in our favour but then fume and curse when it doesn't. Arteta is probably guilty of that very thing himself like a lot of other managers, but they like us can't have it both ways. Mistakes are mistakes and they can indeed affect positional outcomes (like Brighton last season) so in that respect I agree with Arteta that if VAR can't be anything more than the shitshow it has already proved itself to be then we may all be better served if it was put in the bin. VAR should be called out when it blatantly fails on the very issues it was introduced to help eradicate. Bad things flourish when good people choose to say or do nothing so I am firmly on the side of anyone who speaks up.

[Harry Dowd scored]

Forest 1-0 up v Villa, who have been getting good results of late.

[Harry Dowd scored]

2-0 for Forest, somebody called Mangala scored, no it can’t be him Can it ?

[john@staustell]

2-0 for Forest, somebody called Mangala scored, no it can’t be him Can it ?

No, but whatever happened to.............?

Edit - playing for Estoril apparently. But can tell his grandchildren he played for Manchester City

The same c##ts were celebrating when the scum won via an offside goal, I don't recall them coming out in force and condemning the referee/ VAR decision.

Fuck Arsenal and their fans.

Can't agree with you, decisions were close calls regardless of which final interpretation was given. You just can't have manager's speaking like that. He's reminiscent of Ferguson trying to influence officials who dared to give decisions against his club. Arteta should receive a touchline ban and warned of his future conduct.

[nottsblue]

A long shot, but come on Luton

[blues2win]

Come on you Hatters. I know I know.

Worth bearing in mind that whatever one thinks of VAR referees without it the Newcastle goal would have been given.

[CTID Hants]

A long shot, but come on Luton

Holding them quite well currently 0-0 HT. Murderers are just a wastefull in losing possession.

Sadly i cannot see Luton holding out, murderers far from convincing thus far.
