Crystal Palace 1 - 1 Newcastle United - 04/02/18 - Post-match reaction from pg34


Recommended Posts

Should have been a 1-0 win to us, I still don't see how they got away with calling that a pen for Palace, it's never, NEVER, given in any other game, EVER. I feel cheated over that, a point is better than nothing but there's no way they should have had a pen and been allowed back in to it.  :huff:

Weird result. They had a hatful of chances and probably should have won it, but at half time I thought we'd been the better side overall and could have been further clear. Played some very decent stuff.

 

They'll be gutted not to have won, feels like we scraped out a point. But overall, just disappointment at another winnable game gone without three points.

We had it. 2 points from Burnley and this is not good.

 

I think we've failed to beat Swansea, Brighton, Palace and Burnley in our last few fixtures, you go down if you carry on like that, we have to beat teams around us, discounting Burnely who aren't really.

What did we take Kenedy off for man. Lost us the game that, all our attacking threat gone in one sub. Subs were absolute w*** today.

 

Probably because he isn't match fit. The lad has played fewer than 10 games in two years. Was running in treacle.

 

Desperate for new signings and all we get are injured and unfit loanees. Fanks mike.

I appreciate the linesman being so fucking sure that was stonewall penalty on a shirt tug never called all season.

 

His reaction was the best. It was like he had seen someone get uppercutted off the ball. Fucking cunt.

Will take it despite the fact we were ultimately robbed by the linesman.

 

It was a clear pen

 

And yet shirt pulling happens every match and they are rarely given.

This one was different because it dicked us, so it needed to be given.

We've crumbled since the first 30 minutes. Not sure what's happened.

We got fucked over by a pen decision that you almost never see, and certainly one that we never get.

That's how Ritchie plays from the first minute anyway. I'd much rather Kenedy stay on and we actually have an outlet. Our defence is going to be shite either way.

Fucking hell. Well battled, lads, and it feels like a decent point after that second half.

 

Worth remembering that, for 30 minutes, that was purely our Championship team. Not a single upgrade present, on the side who were getting twatted at Portman Road and Hillsbrough less than a year ago.

 

They give absolutely everything and the first half gives us cause for optimism.

 

At home is the killer.

You must love a fight based on pedantry. Yes it was a penalty by the letter of the law, but 90% or more them are ignored week in week out, ergo it was a harsh decision.

Decent point that. The penalty was unlucky but think they would have equalised eventually anyway the way it was going

No they wouldn’t. They were not creating anything despite throwing balls into the box. They were coming up to the end of the first though 10 minutes of the 2nd half you get. We would have seen the game out.

This ref is fucking unbelievable. How the fuck was that not a foul on Merino!?

 

This. It's hard enough on our shit team to defend for their lives, let alone when they seem to be one of the only defences that don't get protection/benefit of the doubt from the ref. I'm happy to admit I'm firmly on the side of conspiracy against NUFC. Refs are bent.

 

The reason I'm kinda on board with this is its been easy for officials to fuck us over for the last 10 years as theres no ambition or will to win from the top of the club, it creates the conditions where its accepted  :lol:

Started well and some positives from some of our build up play in the first half an hour or so.

 

End of 1st half and 2nd just crap really. Practically played with 10 given how ineffectual Perez was.

 

Sky’s one-eyed shirt pulling coverage was embarrassing. Lascelles literally man-handled when trying to attack a free kick, then when Clark pulls a shirt when having his pulled a stonewall pen? What a crock.

 

Can’t wait for VAR just so we can have five penalties a match going by that nonsense.

 

Saying all that, probably a point was fair on the balance of the match. So no complaints other than all my complaints.

 

And I wish Jamie Redknapp would just fuck off.
