Newcastle United 3-1 Notts Forest - 30/12/2016. Post match reaction from page 17


Recommended Posts

No matter how idiotic a second yellow it was, it was still worthy of it.  That Mills chap looked a bit unhinged in those highlights.  Dangerous tackle from behind, sarcastic applause of the ref then chucking the ball into Gayle's gut.  Amusing minute, bet he thought he was being dead hard :lol:

Tbh I thought it looked a nailed on draw until the sending off and Forest are an absolutely awful team, make no mistake they are shocking. The one bright spot was Diame looked superb in the centre of midfield but the negative to that is that Perez would need to play behind Gayle if Diame was to play there in Shelveys absence, and Perez shouldn't be anywhere near the starting line up.

Thought the referee yesterday was one of the better ones we've had all season, to be honest.

 

He most certainly was. Seemed to be on to their playacting from the start and got just about every decision right I thought. Best ref we've had this season, at home anyway.

cheating diving t***s but think the red was harsh.

 

Perhaps they can get it rescinded like the two incorrect reds we got in the first fixture? The points are away though - that's karma.

That's the beauty of it all: We got both reds rescinded they can't even appeal theirs.

 

Every team has its divers now, but rarely you see such a malicious set up and deliberate collective effort. Always had time and respect for a great club like Forest, but they can get fucked.

Agree with all of that.

 

Pérez is a waste of a shirt and his play acting is beyond embarrassing. The majority of the crowd were on his back from early on and it's time to get rid, IMO.

Was Mills the big cretin who berated the poor ballboy in the first half? Sweet, sweet justice if so.

 

Aye, that was him. The ball was on the pitch though, the kid was hardly going to jump over the hoardings and run onto the pitch to knock it back down the line when Mills was standing no further than 10 yards away from it.

Absolutely as bad as Monday prior to sending off.

 

No chance for me. Good start followed by poor period... poor start to second half followed by slightly better. In no way as bad as Sheff Wed.

tHIS.

Started like an express train, dropped off a bit and then picked it up and won at a canter.

 

Clark and Lascelles were very poor in the 1st half though.

 

Perez had his best game for about 12 months as well.

 

Colback had a decent game and Hayden was everywhere, motm by a mile for me.

 

Diame looked a proper beast when he came on as well.

 

Their Number 22 was a disgrace, on his arse rolling about for the whole 99 minutes.

 

Their fans an even bigger disgrace firing a flare into the Newcastle fans below them in the Leazes End early in the first half.

Thought it was a decent performance, defending a bit suspect at times in the first half. Forest were kind of playing with all of their attackers lined up against our back four, which created a few chances from direct balls.

 

Glad to see Rafa trying Diame at CM, looked so much better without Colback. Remove him and Dummett and we'd look another level.

 

 

Were you at the game ? Ando and that opther guy made it sound dreadful despite the win, in fact only reason we got the three points according to Ando was because of the sending off. Was Ando just being his usual miserable self ?

yes

The referee was so s*** tonight,  the yellow card Clark received in the first half was absolutely ridiculous

When we got a free kick for a Forest player being offside and he let us take it in their half [emoji38]

To be fair that's the new rule now,  you take the free kick where the player touches the ball so he was correct with that decision

 

No idea why they needed to change the rule  like

The player that played the pass or the player that is offside?

 

If it's the latter then he can't have been offside.

He was caught offside about a foot into our half but the ball was in the air and he'd ran into our half to receive it.

It was right in front of me and he got the ball cleanly and it was a great tackle. The fourth official should have communicated to the referee that it should have been a throw in to Forest not a foul and a booking

Maybe the fourth official thought it was foul....
