Yer avin a giraffe ref ..nailed on pen !
That better not cost us ...however Rafa.. Merino on for Perez & Murphy on for Ritchie ( who hasn't had a decent game all season )
That was indeed a stonewall penalty. God knows why that wasn’t given 😳
We appear to be trying to walk it in
Ritchie was great for us at Bournemouth, not sure what has happened at Newcastle. Benitez must air a little of the blame I guess. I do however think Rafa is doing a great job. Newcastle's squad is the worst in the PL by a long way IMHO and he is getting every last drop out of them just to keep their heads above water. Me mams side of the family are all Geordie and I love that city so I truly hope they stay up.
YEEEEESSSSSS!!!!
GET IN !!!
So what do I know ..well done Mr.Ritchie ..
Awesome!
Great performance by Newcastle, particularly defensively, and we were just really poor again. They deserved the win. The big name expensive signings need to up their game pretty significantly.
fitting that the goal came from the free kick given for Smalling for blatantly diving, for which he was rightly carded. It’s just embarrassing!
firmino should have just got one there for Liverpool. Get up you muppet!
You mean just line Kane got a yellow for diving last week?
And i will be watching match of the day this evening 😉
My dad would have been pleased.
Nice one Rafa.
Don’t be bitter binners,you’d love bobby in your team .;-)
how many more wins are City away from the title then? maffurmatiklee like?
If city and united win all remaining games a draw in the Manchester Derby wins it for city april 7th
^^that is a big ask .... for United!!!!!
The top four race just got a bit more interesting - obviously City are guaranteed and Arsenal are maybe a bit too far adrift. So three from four - Chelsea most vulnerable?
Spurs have momentum and a good run from here. I think man u could fall away a bit. Arsenal wont be playing uefa Cup next year.
Fancy a tenner on that mike?? 😊
RM.
Which bit?
Arsenal. Although I’ve no doubt the won’t finish in the top 5 I think they’ll be ok for Europe next year!
RM.
You’d be a brave/stupid man who put any money on where anyone other than city will finish. It’s wide open for the other 3 champions league places, mid-table obscurity now consists of Burnley, Everton and Leicester, and everyone below them is potentially for the drop
There’s never been a season like it! Totally bonkers! The final run in is going to be mental. There are going to be some crazy results, with so many teams scrapping for their premiership survival
Based on today I think Southampton are in big trouble - they were limp! Not many games to go now for a managerial change to make an impact either.
Cripes, that's a disastrous start for Spurs in Turin.
Meanwhile, Citeh roll on.
Well, that sounds a bit better.
What s game this Spurs tie. End to end stuff. Reminds me why I still like football.
Basel are about as easy a European tie as can be, whereas Juve are a much tougher proposition (even if they are not quite at the level they were a year or 2 ago).
quite looking forward to PSG against real tonight, hope it lives up to the hype.
5 mins in and already 5 or 6 dramatic dives, and Wenger thinks the brits are bad.
I am very happy I was chased out of the house to watch the Porto game.
🙂
Can't grumble at that. The attack is astounding.
some stunning attacking displays from all the EPL team this week
I am sure Man U will Keep this going next week
Tongue in cheek junkyard, I'm sure (re United)!
Probably for the first time ever tonight I wanted Real Madrid to win. Feels dirty.
even if we make it to the final* we will core es goal than Pool did last night
* of course I cannot see it happening and everyone playing beautiful football but us
Unbelievable! Well done Wigan.
They are basically through to the semis now. There is no way we (Southampton) will beat them at their place. We are rubbish.
Well done Wigan. You wanted it more than us.
Delph sending off was a bit harsh but he was stupid giving Taylor the opportunity to make the decision. Grigg was a handful and took his goal brilliantly.
Need to step up the performance levels against Arsenal on Sunday.
Great performance by Wigan last night on top of another great display by Rochdale on Sunday.
Wigan-born mrs Binners was an extremely happy bunny and continued her streak of highly improbable winning bets with a tenner (which was a free bet on her new account) on a 'Keep the Faith' repeat of the FA cup final, and a Wigan win.
At 17/1
You should have seen her watching the last few minutes through her fingers 😀
I’m also pleased to see refs dutifully heeding Pep’s call to protect players by issuing, in last night’s case, a red card for s dangerous challenge. About time.
"Delph sending off was a bit harsh but he was stupid giving Taylor the opportunity to make the decision"
It looked a definite red at full speed, maybe didn't look as bad on slow mo, but I think the only argument against it could be the series of far worse tackles dished out to city that have gone unpunished. At least half a dozen times in the past couple of months, referees have told city players that kind of tackle is acceptable. This is where refereeing consistency is a must.

Top work, DD. I LOL'ed
Interesting take on the sending off on the BBC where they reported that on their poll 69% of people thought it should have been a red card so therefore a 50:50 decision.
I'm still trying to work out the logic of that one!
I’ve seen some bad performances from Arsenal recently, but this game against the Swedish no hopers takes the biscuit! Truly abysmal across the board and almost given up our 3-0 away result in the first half!
a goal back at the start of the 2nd half just papers over the cracks!
Yep - Arsenal being Arsenal!
As an arsenal fan employed at Östersund Council who has spent most of the day saying we'll win 7-0 on aggregate I am utterly dreading going to work tomorrow.
Just sitting down to watch the Arsenal/City final and wondering if I should be behind the sofa rather than on it! 😮
Come on Rochdale!!!!!!! 😃
This is an absolute farce!!
VAR is getting off to a great start, isn’t it? 😂
GET IN!!!!
