I see Kavanagh from. The Villa v Newcastle game has been suspended! What an effing surprise i bet the first game he officiated on his return will be one city's games.

That handball yesterday is bemusing - it wasn’t even close - he was two/three yards inside the box from both sides? It’s like they had a brain melt thinking “oh the kick is from where the player kicked the ball”.

Shearer can moan all he likes about VAR, before VAR the pundits were seeing errors like this and were saying ‘the refs need help’ - this just proves it.

‘the refs need help’ and the Lino was stood right next to the handball inside the box.

Does suspended just mean no game for a week then back doing the same?

Let them get away with a lot while blowing everything for us.

VAR would have given a red for the stamp on Grimes' ankle, missed their player kicking out on the floor.

Finally got a pen at least.

It probably wasn't an easy game to referee, played at 100% miles and hour with real aggression, but it did feel as if they got away with a lot more than us.

Saka's booking was very poor.

I listened to radio tees on the way home after CWR (long trip back and wanted to hear what they said), surprisingly they were pretty fair and their oggy said we were the better team. They had one texter in who agreed the ref was terrible, said even he couldn't understand the Saka booking as it was just odd (though the texter also said it was never a pen).

Really weird ref tonight, constantly poor, yet somehow we finally got a pen and were 3-1 winners.

I thought the ref was shite last night until he gave the pen, then all was forgiven. Its been such a long time since we had one.

The Saka yellow was criminal, even the ITV commentators said so. Also I felt the one for Onyeka was very soft, compared to some of the fouls and the dirty tactics they got away with!
