Stevenage V Newcastle United: FA Cup Round 3: Match Thread - 5:30pm

That_Guy

Can't say they don't deserve it. We're absolute sh*t.

M5

Now is when you should show your class, horrible goal to concede

That_Guy

Oh FFS.

everdead.ie

2-0 great goal!

M5

Fine goal, always the danger

mike65

:pac:

Mars Bar

Great goal!!!

Raskolnikov

Oh dear.

applehunter

2-0 now

Good strike.

Newcastle punished again for basics.

Moneymaker

Sweet jesus.

I don't know what's more tilting, our display or ESPNs commentary.

That_Guy

Deserve it. Pathetic performance.

M5

Foot on the ball time lads

bazual

To be honest i'm delighted for Stevenage they are playing pretty well, and we are rubbish. Would be happy to get knocked out of the cup and concentrate on staying up.

/facepalm

Mercifully, ESPNs coverage just went down the ****ter. I don't think I could watch any more of this inexcusable garbage.

That_Guy

ESPN sparing us.

ShaneU

WTF is going on?

The Sparrow

ESPN: Your NBA Home.

/facepalm

Moneymaker

17 years supporting this club, I can scarcely remember a worse display. Utterly embarrassing.

That_Guy

It's all Perch's fault.

Moneymaker

I sincerely hope we never see that bloody blue kit again. And for that matter, Alan Smith in our colours.

That_Guy

He gets the ball but it's reckless.

everdead.ie

Christ a wreckless tackle from tiote he's off now

mike65

Pardew out?

bazual

does this mean he misses Sunderland, if so we are f*cked.

Off the ground and studs up was the problem there

Certainly won't help his cause. Not his fault his players have been so god awful though.

Not a red card either, bad tackle yes, no more then a yellow though.

TheProdigy

Great tackle in fairness to the lad, he blatantly got the ball.

Mars Bar

Marinner is never far away from controversy!

Dr.Winston O'Boogie

Craig Burley is an idiot.

Moneymaker

Marinner must be the worst referee I have ever seen. Barry Knight seems like a genius in comparison to this clown.

That_Guy

We should appeal that.

steelcityblues

Listening on the radio, but the incident sounds reprehensible.

Maybe Joey Barton has given him some 'lessons'.

The Sparrow

Nailed on Red Card. Dunno what the hell Craig Burley is on about.

He was about 6 inches off the ground and had no control. Unbelievable tackle.

Dave147

Looked to me like his studs were facing the ball, fine tackle, crazy red card, Colos tackle was far worse.

Pathetic post. He won the ball. He was off the ground but he got the ball. It was reckless yes but doesn't warrant a red imo. Yellow at least.

We should appeal.

bazual

Yellow at most, no studs showing as he was going down on the ball, would give a red if he didnt go near the ball but he got it cleanly before the stevenage player. I blame pardew for bringing him on, muppet.

Moneymaker

What's downright amazing is how toothless we've looked upfront. We've barely looked like creating a chance, never mind scoring. Inexcusable against this opposition.

I hate the fuucking FA cup. :mad:

The same guy who was playacting at the end of the Wigan game?

Good player, but obviously not a model professional recently!

That_Guy

Attack the fcuking ball. Christ almighty.

Paully D

Ah lads, that was a poor tackle. Tiote thought he was Bruce Lee for a second there.

Immediate 3 match ban and rightly so, but, can't you appeal and therefore he'll still be able to play on Sunday?

The Sparrow

As far as I know, it doesn't say anything in the rules about getting the ball. It says that you have to be fully in control of a tackle and if not, it is a straight red card.

Tiote was completely in the air so how could he possibly be in control of his actions? If you mistime that tackle by a fraction, you can break a leg. Hence the red card.

If you appeal it'll be a further game added IMO.

And rightly so.

monkey9

It was a definite red card!! You can't go flying in like that with both feet off the gound and having no control of your body. Stupidy by Tiote.

Moneymaker

Does Krul actually practice kicking the ball? At all?

That_Guy

Should be 3.

I'd seriously have to question your knowledge of soccer if your saying thats a blatant red card?

He dived for the ball, he didn't go in two footed his other leg was behind him not even pointed towards the ball. He jumped in to get to the ball first and it was a good challenge, simple as.
