Newcastle 3-0 Fulham - 16 Dec

I'd take Pereira off for Harrison R and hope

[Drewry66]

He's tried to pull out!! Not his leg but his frigging hip?!?! 10 men the whole game and just as he finds form banned for 3. Unbelievable

[SerbianLad]

He tried to get away from the challenge. Yes he did it too late, but how is that a red and a clear elbow just a bit earlier (where Lascelles didn't even try to avoid contact) wasn't even a yellow?

[SP]

This week I've seen VAR ignore obvious red cards for awful fouls, no danger of that today

[St Eve]

I'm not convinced it was deliberate. He pulled out. Yellow yes, but red is harsh in my opinion

[FFC1987]

How stupid and unnecessary. Started to finally make an impact and now he'll be out during a key period for us. New striker in January needed regardless of this but does show even Jimenez can't be trusted.

[demeant0r]

We'll do well to get a point from this game now

[SimonDaviesEnjoyer]

Getting sent off after 20 minutes is unforgivable. Our disciplinary record seems to have been atrocious in the past few seasons.

[jayffc]

This commentator hamming it up aswell. Behave, Raul thinks the guy is going to flick up the ball so jumps to block and pulls out of the challenge realizing he's misjudged and sure his body hits him. Clumsy sure, but serious foul play though worth of a ready? Give over, soft generation...if he wanted to injure he wouldn't have pulled his leg out the way. Nonsense yet again. Game ruined

Not even a foul.

[Lordedmundo]

Silly challenge yes - but never a red. He didn't lead with his leg, arm or elbow - he just jumped into the Newcastle player.

Not even a yellow for the Newcastle player when Raul gets whacked in the face and then he gets a red for something that is just clumsy and without intent to hurt the player!

[ron]

That's not a red.

...then I don't know what is....

[FFC In Oz]

Raul you f'n idiot.

Soft? Probably.  Did he pull out of the challenge? Yes

But you go in with that much venom, you leave yourself in danger of getting sent off with minimal impact/contact.

[ffcthereligion]

Does that mean he's banned for cup?

[jayffc]

That's not a red.

...then I don't know what is....

Correct

[TC's Sporran]

woodwork and then that was handball surely

[ron]

Back down to earth with our striker options...

[rusty shackleford]

No coincidence that he was riled uo right before. So it was stupid. Dont give these ballbag VAR tubes an excuse to send you off ffs. For a nothing challange nowhere. Lack of discipline comes from the top down. Odds on Marco getting red here today? Cert id imagine

[Rj Fulham]

Im watching a stream and missed the start, whats this about Raul copping a elbow? How surprising a Newcastle player doesnt get a red at home

[SP]

Iwobi is a great competitor
