It wasn't reckless and it wasn't a goal scoring opportunity - a yellow would have been appropriate.

How was it not a goal scoring opportunity, Isak would have been 1-on-1 in the middle of the goal.

[whelk]

Geordie twats blown it

[Lighthouse]

Fair play to Liverpool, this is a great performance with ten men away to Newcastle. The gravel chewer extraordinaire doesn’t look too happy about it though.

[whelk]

Good thing about being in Championship is being free to hate all these teams not ever hoping they ever win to do us a favour

[whelk]

How many fouls does Joelinton make in a game?

[East Kent Saint]

Targett on for NU !

[whelk]

Now that is funny

Last season, 65 fouls in 32 games, so around 2 per game. 

 

This season, 8 fouls in 3, but this may reflect referee changes rather than any trend in playing style.

[LGTL]

As much as nobody likes Liverpool, it’s funny seeing Newcastle fuck this up. 

[saintant]

Ha ha. Let's all laugh at the cheating Geordies 🙂

It is tough to have team behind Liverpool in wanting shit things for them. But for now Newcastle for sure

My final comment on the games today. Kelly Cates has lost a fair bit of weight.

[Yozzman]

I thought it was only us who could lose against 10 men after taking the lead.

The state of the commentator it’s never happened  before. The blokes wet his pants because Liverpool won.

Allison needs to sort his boat out. Bit of Acne  Treatment wouldn’t go amiss. 

[Baird of the land]

haha. Know it is liverpool but i'm happy seeing Saudi fc lose. Just annoyed i gave up on nunez in my fantasy teams after 2 weeks of tiny cameos

But we all know how much more difficult it is to play against 10 men.

Why the hell did he substitute Gordon. He was having a great game

Thought the same. He was causing them all sorts of trouble. 

Was only keeping one eye on it - did he have a knock? 

[John Boy Saint]

Certainly a game to put a smile on your face - Virgil getting to use up all the hot water in the showers - Newcastle not capitalising 

Shrubsole (after all she’s done) bowing out of professional Women’s cricket winning The Hundred title at last for The Brave.

Quite a good afternoon of Sport on the Tellybox 

[The Cat]

2 times in 2 home games Burnley have had to release a statement after their fans do something stupid.

Expect that sort of comment from a bird. Twats who follow football these days want players to put on make-up etc.

Also agree, soon as he went off and in my mind more importantly Tonali they lost control of midfield,  bit of fail from Eddie

Was a bit of a Howe-ler.

I'm ever so sorry. 

[Saint Keef]

All together now, in a Geordie accent.....EIEIEIO Time for Eddie Howe to go.......

[InvictaSaint]

Watched the Watford v Blackburn game yesterday. Blackburn were solid enough and nicked a great goal, but Watford - who put 4 past QPR - were woeful in attack. So many players with poor decision making and poor touch. We really are a step above the vast majority of teams in this league and have got to be looking to get back up at the first time of asking.

One of those fixtures you want to see both sides lose.

[whelk]

Some turnaround by Palace. 3 goals in 3 minutes

[whelk]

Would have staked my mortgage that Forster wouldn’t save a penalty. And guess what?

[FarehamSaintJames]

Jimmy-Jay Morgan scored v MK Dons tonight in a 4-1 defeat for Chelsea U21’s. 

Pompey lose to Peterborough at home on pens.

Pompey really messed that up. Oh well haha.

[The Cat]

By the looks of it Peterborough very much had a reserve team out and played with 10 men for the last 30 minutes.

[LuckyNumber7]

6500 at Nottarf Krap tonight. Massive!

[FarehamSaintJames]

Leeds lost on penalties to Salford.

Also has anyone noticed how less magical it is when Wrexham lose a match, somehow doesn’t make press coverage. 😂

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Lavia not even in Chelsea's C team this evening.

[Turkish]

Everton are absolutely shite. Taken 40 minutes to get their first shot away at Doncaster, look awful. If they stay up this season it’ll be a miracle you’d have to be nuts to go there

1-0 Donny 👏👏👏👏👏

[AlexLaw76]

Everton look ripe for the drop this season. Woeful.

Donny are bottom of...err, professional football (in old money)

[Crab Lungs]

Fuck was gonna bet on Doncaster.

wont be long until Sean Dyche will be doing podcasts again telling the world how special he is.

[SotonianWill]

Everton boos are hilarious

[AlexLaw76]

Donny's goal was offside too 🤣

[redkeith]

Everton have someone named Dobbin playing for them tonight. Sounds like a right Donkey!

Everton seem to have the full team out to conquer the mighty Doncaster. They've also just subbed on their new £30m striker to settle it. Here's hoping this year they go down.

[Give it to Ron]

Blackburn 8 up away with 10-15 to go at Harrogate isn’t that your local team Turkish?

[AlexLaw76]

60 mins gone, Everton have managed 2 shots, with 1 on target

Lewis Dobbin. He's best mates with my nephew (who is on the bench tonight). They came through the academy together. Watched him a few times and he's a decent young player. Definitely gonna get opportunities this season, given the state of their squad.

[Sheaf Saint]

Beto scores

He's looked good since coming on. Just forget his shot a minute earlier with his left.
