It was a dive, weren't it? Saw it three times. Couldn't watch it the 4th time cos I was too embarrassed to.

If a dive means, clear contact, yes, it was a drive.

I thought there was some contact, and even the ESPN panellists who were sucking Newcastle's cock throughout the match felt there might have been contact. I'm not saying it was a definite penalty, but if that's a dive, then there are 100s of dives throughout every match.

I'll admit that there was a dive by Gervinho in the first half though which was more blatant.

That's why I wrote "if".

I have no problem with players being sent off if it's what they deserve. The rules are not applied equally, however.

I didn't see enough replay, initially thought it was a dive, but apparently there was contact.

Doesn't mean it was a legitimate foul

Fair to say he was looking for it?

lol

no

Fair to say it was a stonewall penalty

Didn't see the game as was at work, but seems like it the same old shite. Couldn't break a team down, reacted to the other team's wind-up merchant and gave the ref an excuse to send our guy off, and will now spend the next couple of days seething about the so-called "injustice". Rather than (and I'm shouting this bit) LEARNING FUCKING LESSONS FROM LAST SEASON WHEN THE SAME SHIT HAPPENED.

But like I say, I didn't see the game so couldn't possibly comment.

Didn't watch the game cos mainly couldn't be arsed to go round my cousins to watch it. Doubt I'll watch MOTD either so will watch nothing of this game but listened to it all on TalkSport which is as good as it gets in terms of commentary and if the match looked as boring as it sounded then thank fuck I didn't watch it.

Pretty much. Only checked the score...0-0? Expected. Yeah, unlucky lads...better luck next time and all that shit.

Fucking retards.

Same result as last year. Dont know why everyone's so upset.

Not a bad result really.

Fairly sure the cesc/lesbo situations havent helped team preparations.
