Ref killed him. Feel somehow really bad for him. He started Cheick Tiote despite even the biggest thickets on here knowing it was stupid and called Coloccini a better signing than the likes of Wjinaldum and Mitrovic instead of booting his arse out the door. Deserves not one hint of sympathy. Purely talking about today. Yeah, Tiote wasn't a great decision, but we all know he's no Pep Guardiola and wouldn't change the starting XI after last week.

He's managed to give the ball away with almost every touch. And then jogged back when they broke on us. He's f***ing s***. Think he was actually sprinting, he's just slow.

Thauvin is promising but still absolutely shite

Ref killed him. Feel somehow really bad for him.

Ref absolutely bottled this.

Hope ref made some money out of this at the very least.

How exactly?

If he doesn't insult the ref in the post-match presser I'll stop supporting him. He needs to get charged for misbehaving. Call the ref a cunt or something.

Arsenal game all over again for me. Fucking disgusted. Done again by the ref. Happens to often in the PL unfortunately.

It's NOT a clear pen man It's a shoulder to shoulder challenge on a player who's nowhere near the ball. He cuts across him. Come on, that's a shoulder to shoulder challenge. If Fletcher does the same and the ball it's never going to get called. Ref wanted to be centre of attention quite clearly.

What game were you watching? We were decent, a bit of luck and we would have scored a few. Stifler being right. Beren man, what has happened to you?

This. Seriously. I can't believe some people think it's even possibly a foul. It's shoulder to shoulder.

I don't like you anymore. You're not welcome in the NFL thread.

Swedish as well. They're saying even if ref wants to give a penalty it's never a red card. It's a fucking joke really.

?? It's never a free-kick. You kidding me? They're on the same level ffs. He gave the ref an option to make a mistake. The ref licked his chops and made a howler. Ah come on. Don't ever make a foul then. It was a horrible horrible decision.

What? Shoulder to f***ing shoulder man. How can't people see that? Watching with people who love to see NEwcastle fail, and not even they get that decision. Wijnaldums was much clearer.

?? It's never a free-kick. You kidding me? They're on the same level ffs.

I'm so fucking pissed off. I hope McClaren lays into the ref. It's embarrassing.

THis fucking ref.

Strange comment. He's at LB in a side who've played most of the game in their opponents half. Been passed to 3 times. Not really strange, he's been wide open numerous times and Colo passes it through the middle to players under pressure. Might be directed to but doesn't mean Dummett wasn't the better option. I saw the same, he's fwd in lots of space and the ball wasn't coming to him. Come on, it's a way of trying to open their midfield up. Has nothing to do with ignoring him.

Seriously, I'm dreading the 2nd half. We've been very good in the first half for three or four straight games now.

Sunderland are fucking horrible. If we don't win this man.

FFS COGBACK. PASS THAT TO WIJNALDUM!

Tiote Guy is absolutely braindead. Not that I think the tackles warranted a yellow, but for sheer stupidity he deserved it. Ref had just told him to calm down
