Saints 1-3 Newcastle - Match Thread

[OttawaSaint]

If they call that a penalty then the gane has completely gone.

Never in a million years.

[SNSUN]

Come on Macca. Do us proud. 

[AlexLaw76]

Never a penalty 

[SouSaint]

So clear and obvious that it took 4 minutes to give. 

[Saint Matty 76]

Think it's a penalty personally 

[Disco Stu]

We've had clearer penalties not given to us.

[Mr X]

FFS every single time!

[Toadhall Saint]

Isak is pulling Aribos shirt 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Utter cunts. They’ll give this as a pen.

[Baird of the land]

Hate var. don’t see enough there for penalty.

[SNSUN]

Why can't we have nice things...

Keep the faith lads. 

[AlexLaw76]

Fucking awful decision.

We were very lucky that wasn't a penalty....

Until var comes along and gives it

[Viking Saint]

Fucking desperate to give that

[benjii]

That's ridiculous. They've been watching it for minutes, so it's not clear and obvious is it.

[BotleySaint]

It does look like Aribo took the player and not the ball. But he does seem to turn into a dive a little at the end. 

[OttawaSaint]

Nonsense. Good body position by Aribo, planted foot, Isak runs into him and drops. Pathetic from VAR.

May as well just fucking play netball, fuck this game.

Literally no one would have made a fuss after if that wasn't a pen.

[Suhari]

Fuck me.

I really hate VAR.

[SNSUN]

Heads up, we go again.

[Toadhall Saint]

Shite decision. 

[Saint Fan CaM]

I hate this league. Hate Cavanagh - biased in the highest degree.

[OttawaSaint]

Fucking cheats. Never a pen but they couldn't wait to give it. Pathetic corrupt cheats!

[AlexLaw76]

We will see much more contact between players about 25 times in the rest of the game, and the ref will give nothing 

[Saint Shady]

The premier league really is a complete load of shit isn’t it 

[Saint NL]

Easy for them 1-1.

Isaac the scorer, var with the assist.

[obelisk]

This is normally where Saints heads drop.

[SWLondon Saint]

Complete bollocks var decision, they clearly had no clue the number of times they watched it from 15 angles.

[It's There]

Again var does Southampton 

[Patches O Houlihan]

That is a fucking outrageous decision - really poor from the VAR team. 

"We are Southampton, we can't have nice things"

[ErwinK1961]

Once again, a decision that is so easy to give against the shitest team in the league.

Hell yeah. Utter load of old wank. This season is enough to put a man off it PRRMANENTLY.

[Saint NL]

cLeaR aNd oBvioUs 

[washsaint]

That is about the worst decision I have ever seen.  VAR is an absolute disgrace and has no place in football.

Never in a million years was that a penalty and taking that long to decide is not a clear and obvious error.

Cannot wait until we are out of this shit league.

[SouSaint]

No midfield. Jurics formation is dogshit. 

[OttawaSaint]

Yes we're poor, down etc. but they just can't let us have anything. Blatant cheating to keep the EPL exciting in race for top 4 etc. We're gone so it doesn't matter to them. Cheats!

[coalman]

Seems like the referees clubbed together to bet on Saints getting less than 11 points this season.

[SNSUN]

Jesus wept.

[Viking Saint]

FFS 

[Sheaf Saint]

Fucking awful from VAR. If it takes that long to make a decision then it's not clear and obvious is it.

And for fucks sake Macca, you could at least try and make it difficult for the pen taker. Diving so early like that, he might as well have just stood by the post and pointed to where Isak should put it. 

[SaintsBarry74]

Will we capitulate from here?

Edit: There it is, of course we will. Like clockwork.

[BotleySaint]

2-1

You must have a crystal ball 

[obelisk]

So simple to play through Saints midfield and defence. 1-2.

[Saint NL]

All over now.

[Mr X]

And there we have it every single time!

[BranfootsLoveChild]

Absolute bullshit. As soon as he went to the monitor I knew what the outcome would be. I know Saints have been been crap this season but christ almighty, VAR have fucked us over more than once. I still think it's big team bias. It's a fucking disgrace.

Probably

Yes, no reason to think otherwise based on this season so far.
