Even aside from the two legit goals that were ruled out he had a shocker. They fell over in slow motion and he still gave them free kicks. He was so bad that I was convinced he was gonna give them a penalty for that ridiculous dive at the end. Hate to see the standard of Norwegian football if this is how the referees are there.

He made a huge difference.

Conjo is probably the ref.

'How good are Metalist compared to what you face in the Premiership' Cabaye: '*shrug and silence*'

This. Massively overhyped team. Hinges on us getting a fair referee though. That's what we said before today... And we should have won 2-0 with a normal referee.

Even if Cisse had scored those other chances they'd have been ruled out.

Also think they look like a shit team. Wouldn't be surprised if their good results in the group stage were the result of buying the referee too. This team has nothing for us to fear.

Pardew gesturing '2-0' to the linesman. Let them fucking have it.

Pardew should take the touch line ban and just let rip on the referee in his post game interview.

Surprised he didn't give that.

This fucking referee. They don't even have to fall over in a realistic fashion.

FUCK SAKE

This fucking referee is pissing me off really badly.

Has had 2 legitimate goals today ruled out. Can't fault him for that.

Worse than Korea 2002 for match fixing.

Fucking bullshit

The only thing I can think of is that the linesman can't tell the difference between two black men.

Except for Atletico Madrid

ESPN just compared us getting to the final of this with Bradford getting to the final of the League Cup

Spartak actually just took a worse set piece than us.

Williamson can't even make the bench these days. Guess who finally loses.

Think MYM may play centrally next week so Pardew can rest someone ahead of Southampton.
