    The second Newcastle penalty is a shocking decision. The West Ham player was clearly in the process of kicking the ball. Gordon wrapped his leg around unsighted from the back.

    Gordon didn't get the ball and stops the West Ham player from playing the ball.

    That is never a pen.

    I agree it's harsh but I'd probably be wanting a pen if it were us although I'd be raging if it was given against us. Luckily I'm just a neutral spectator!

    If you put your foot in front of another player when he is running and it trips him up everyone knows it's a foul.

    When you're in the act of kicking and someone blocks your kick and causes you to fall, how can that be a foul on the other player?

    Gordon went for the ball and didn't get the ball. The West Ham player was in control of the ball.

    State of the decisions down there honestly think Scottish refs might be outperforming them and that is pathetic

    These super Sundays when the big ones play seldom are super.

    2 shots on goal, whole game so far.

    Must have been over a billion pounds worth of players on that pitch there and the standard was absolutely horrific, two * awful sides. Don’t get me wrong it was a decent game to watch, but the whole “only in the Premier League” is what the fan boys would refer to as “farmer leagues” if it was anywhere else.

    Has Robertson been this poor all season?

    Feel like any time I’ve seen him of late he’s been mince.
