Murphy waving goodbye 👋

[Thereisonlyonemickychannon]

Nasty little git. Murphy waving....

That has definitely got the Saints players backs up.

Come on Saints....let's show those geordies that they ain't in the final yet.

[S-Clarke]

Not sure why everyone has got worked up about this, we'd be lapping it up if JWP was pulling faces and gestures to Zaha.

I am right in saying that DCC' suspension is served vs blackpool as it was a red card? But yellow cards count only in the carabao cup?

I wouldn't want to murphy and on that pitch if we're most likely going out - can see someone going in on him hard late on for the sake of a meaningless yellow 😋

Imagine that will bring some disappointment to the toon; they've been so please with the red card and Murphy's antics.

The minority might, but i suspect the majority would say it's a classless gesture and that someone would have a word with him about. A slight smirk (which would be JWPs bag i suspect) is fair game, but that pathetic little hand waving thing....i don't think many would lap that up.

I suspect that is partially why they all went for him, trying to get a reaction which would spark a straight red rather than second yellow (3 game ban over 1 game). 
 

As others have said, it’s part of football. JWP done it to zaha many a time. 
 

Shame it wasn’t Lyanco who got sent off, might have helped us.

If it were lyanco being sent off and Murphy waving at him he'd be looking at a lengthy ban for drop kicking the rat

Yeah right. Our bunch of fannies don’t even appeal ref decisions or dive like most PL teams, let alone put a strong revenge tackle in.

Maybe you would lap it up, not WE.....jwp does wind up people, and is not childish about it. He gets stuck in. But the childish wave by NC player is a taunt that should be dealt with. 

[Sunglasses Ron]

The actions of Murphy on Tuesday and Ramsey on Saturday are equally pathetic IMO.

Oh for the days of Terry Hurlock and co. 🙂

Joe Jordan would have run the length of the pitch and flattened him.

[rallyboy]

If Joe Jordan was on the pitch Pope would still be recovering from their earlier collision, probably in A and E.

No problem with sides being a bit more nasty, we've certainly needed to show a more ruthless edge, but that mincer Murphy and his girly wave just deserves a slap

[hackedoff]

In days gone by it would have been sorted out in the tunnel at the end,in the traditional way.

Think you've got to give DCC credit for not reacting. 

Wonder if Lyanco would have shown such self restraint.

Yes and no

[verlaine1979]

Maybe if DCC hadn't been absolutely skinned for their winner he'd have a case for retaliating. 

As it is, I'd rather the team focus on trying to hit more than two consecutive passes before they start getting in touch with their feelings, aggressive or otherwise.

All of this gash about aggression and getting in people's faces is just a distraction. If you can move the ball and score goals, the dark arts are the icing on the cake, maybe giving you an edge in exceedingly close games. If you're utter shite like we are at the moment, all they do is get you waved off the pitch by the team that's just beat you.

Jacob Murphy’s shins may not come out of the second leg intact. 😂

Do a venn diagram and you might find it's different people.

Wasn’t the JWP Saha thing before the red - actually leading to the red - which is all part of the game and probably related to a weakness identified in Saha, whereas the Murphy incident was after the card was shown and the player was leaving the field?
