The VAR Controversy That Both Fanbases Are Furious About — And Neither Is Entirely Wrong

What makes this worth covering is that fans from both sides are angry, but about different things. The debate is not simply "wrong call" — it is layered: one fan argues the arm across is "only because he's been fouled" first. That is a sophisticated refereeing argument that rarely gets addressed properly on football content. Build the video around that specific wrinkle, not just the general VAR outrage.
Referee and VAR discussion generated 376 posts — the largest forced-topic volume in the dataset — with a sentiment of -0.48, making it statistically the angriest single conversation of the entire match.

Quotable Posts
The shirt pull from that last angle is more of a foul than the arm across
100%. And no consideration that his arm is across Raya only because he's been fouled.
The goalkeeper was like: is there a ball around here?

Nick Pope: Premier League Goalkeeper or Liability? The Data Might Surprise You

Do not just pile on. The interesting angle here is the goalkeeper controversy bubbling underneath — fan posts are naming Aaron Ramsdale as an alternative, and there is crossover with a disputed penalty call generating 376 posts and a sentiment of -0.48. The real question: is Pope the problem, or is he being hung out to dry by the defence in front of him? Present both sides properly.

Eddie Howe's Substitution Problem Is Costing Newcastle Points — Again

Do not just cover the anger. Build the case file. Use the fan post that says his changes "virtually guaranteed" the equaliser and frame it as a structural argument — how many times this season has Newcastle led and dropped points, and what the substitution patterns look like each time. This is not a vibe piece. This is a prosecution.

With 323 posts and a sentiment of -0.42, the Howe-out narrative is the single loudest Newcastle reaction from this match — and it is not just emotion, it is a pattern fans are tracking game by game.
Another Eddie Howe masterclass in blowing leads.
Well, add another manager who has out-coached Howe in-game in the Premier League. It's not Pereira either, it's Eddie Howe. We had control of the game and a lead (again), and his changes virtually gua
Performance that just about sums up the season, the club, the apathy of so many first team players, the staleness of our management and the "he'll do" attitude of our gutless owners.

Lewis Hall at Right Back: The Eddie Howe Decision That Has Newcastle Fans Furious

The obvious video is about Dan Burn being poor. This one is about something more uncomfortable — the suggestion that Howe is distorting the entire defensive shape to accommodate a favourite. Play Trippier at right back, Hall at left back — it is not complicated. So why is it not happening? That question, not Burn's quality, is the real story.

Talking Points & Quotes (4)
The highest-quality single fan post in the entire dataset — scoring 9.5 — is specifically about this tactical choice, with 33 believers and 12 challengers. It frames Howe's team selection not as a mistake but as a loyalty problem.
Lewis Hall out of position in at RB just so Burn can play. I'm Eddie in but fk me his love affair with playing his favourites no matter what can get in the bin. What's wrong with playing Trippier RB and Hall LB?
I can't agree with that though. I think Burn is easily one of the worst players I've seen in a Newcastle shirt in my nearly 30 years of watching. He offers nothing. Can't defend as proven today alone,
Can't argue with that. I do feel the criticism of Burn is slightly harsh because he's a solid 3rd choice LB/4th choice CB and he's only LB because of injuries but yea, all 3 should have been upgraded

Woltemade Is Fooling Everyone — And Newcastle Fans Are Starting to Wake Up

This is an algorithm-versus-reality story. The comments section is apparently full of Woltemade enthusiasm while a significant chunk of the fanbase is watching him struggle to win a header, control a pass, or hold a position. The debate framing writes itself: is Woltemade a player who needs time, or is the hype actively obscuring that he is not suited to any position? The 8.2-scoring post that asks "is he ever going to attempt to actually win headers" is the video's opening line.

I know I'm interrupting the wolte wankfest, but is he ever going to attempt to actually win headers or contest challenges?
Wolt was equally as shit today. He literally couldn't control the ball or pass 5 yards.
He doesn't look suited as a 9 either. I think people just need to accept the fact that he's not very good wherever he plays

Elliot Anderson Scores Against His Old Club — And Newcastle Fans Are Not Sure How to Feel

There is a genuinely extraordinary fan-created stat in the data — a post listing Anderson's goal and assist contributions across opponents this season, then noting he was dropped. Lead with that. The punchline writes itself: Newcastle sold him, he came back and denied them a win, and the comment "Minteh and Anderson all day long" over Gordon captures the whole tragedy. This is not just a transfer regret video — it is about the ownership rules that forced the choice.

You often see that commentators prepare a whole stat pack for games. Seb Hutchinson's is one sentence that says 'Elliot Anderson used to play for Newcastle'.

Newcastle's Summer Clearout: Who Is Staying, Who Is Gone, and Who Should Never Play Again

Do not just list who should leave. The angle here is the financial and ownership dimension — one fan references "corrupt rules" forcing choices like the Anderson sale, another asks sarcastically how much was paid for Wissa and Elanga. The summer rebuild story at Newcastle is inseparable from the question of whether the ownership structure allows Howe to actually fix anything. That is the real video.

Fifty-three posts with a negative sentiment of -0.30 are already discussing a summer overhaul — and fans are naming names, questioning over £100 million in recent transfer spending, and debating whether the problems are personnel or structural.
newcastle has some awful players, huge clearout in the summer needed.
And enlanga. Fancy parting with over £100m for those two
Prove me wrong but it feels like we're going into next season with zero hope. We had good moments in Europe but this season has just felt so flat and watching the same mistakes over and over again.

Bruno Guimarães Could Barely Walk — So Why Did Eddie Howe Leave Him On?

This story exists in a completely different register to the general Howe criticism. If Newcastle's most important and most valuable player was visibly struggling to move, and the manager left him on — that is a duty-of-care question that goes beyond tactics. And the detail about booing when he came off adds a layer of confusion: were some fans actually angry he was substituted even while injured? That paradox is the video.

Vítor Pereira Has Saved Nottingham Forest — But Should He Stay?

The obvious video is a celebration piece about survival. Flip it. Lead with the fan post that literally says "#ThankYouVitor Now go and get a project manager we can build with for years" — because that ambivalence is far more interesting than simple gratitude. Pereira was brought in on 12 February 2026 and achieved survival. His Wikipedia page apparently makes grim reading. What is the realistic ceiling here?

Pereira has saved us. We'd have been relegated under at least 2 of our previous managers this season. Pleased to be safe with games to spare. Onto next season. You Reds!

Harvey Barnes Is Starting for England — And the Numbers Back It Up

The buried gem post tracking Barnes's goal contributions across every club this season — Wolves, Bournemouth, Arsenal, Forest, Brighton, and more — is remarkable in its own right. Build the England case from scratch using that data. Thomas Tuchel is the current England manager and squads are being assessed. Is Barnes in his thinking? He almost certainly is not getting the column inches his output deserves, and that gap is the content.

Barnes scored the opener for Newcastle and there are fans actively making the England case for him — with 115 posts and a positive sentiment of 0.12, but crucially this debate is almost entirely absent from mainstream coverage.

Forest's Left Flank Is Quietly Building Something Special — Did You Notice?

Every video after this match will focus on the controversy, the dropped points, the managers, the referees. This one zooms in on the one quiet, constructive story that nobody else is telling: two young players are getting better in real time. Luca Netz specifically is drawing excited comments about his ceiling. In a season of anxiety for Forest fans, this is the hopeful counter-narrative — and it is completely uncontested content territory.

Only 38 posts cover Forest's left-flank development — one of the lowest-volume narratives in the dataset — but the sentiment is genuinely positive and the content is substantive, specific, and forward-looking.
Special word for Luca Netz today, and in the first half the Geordies didn't like going up against Bakwa, both should be kept to train on.
Agreed, would have made a big difference on Thursday too. A promising thing is that players like Bakwa, McAtte are getting better for next season.
netz looks really good, excited to see what he becomes next season. and hopefully he just doesnt end up getting loaned out like we did to half the players that look good

Cut from running order

The VAR Controversy That Both Fanbases Are Furious About — And Neither Is Entirely Wrong — The Pope debate, while high-controversy, shares thematic territory with cards 5 and 8 (Howe's decisions) and would create repetition in the Newcastle critique section. Card 8 handles the goalkeeper/duty-of-care angle more specifically.
Nick Pope: Premier League Goalkeeper or Liability? The Data Might Surprise You — Lewis Hall/Dan Burn is a strong Newcastle story, but card 5 (substitutions) and card 3 (Anderson/ownership) already build the Newcastle management case. This would be additive rather than essential.
Elliot Anderson Scores Against His Old Club — And Newcastle Fans Are Not Sure How to Feel — The ownership/summer clearout video overlaps with card 3's "corrupt rules" and Anderson angle. Card 3 delivers that insight more sharply and in fewer minutes.
Vítor Pereira Has Saved Nottingham Forest — But Should He Stay? — Woltemade criticism is interesting but medium-energy and doesn't fit the arc — it would flatten the momentum heading into the climax.
Morato Is a Disaster — And Forest Fans Have Finally Had Enough — Card incomplete in source data (no full angle provided). Also, we're already covering Forest's defensive issues through card 11's positive counter-narrative, which is fresher content territory.

Forest and Newcastle Draw Amid Player Criticism 625 posts negative

Fans expressed frustration with individual player performances during the 1-1 draw between Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United, with particular criticism directed at Forest's squad quality and consistency. The discussion reflected broader concerns about both teams' ability to compete, with some questioning whether Forest's current crop of players can avoid relegation trouble given their position near the bottom of the table.

Midfielder's Inconsistency Divides Fan Base on Potential 69 posts neutral

Forest and Newcastle supporters are locked in debate over a midfielder's actual quality, with some arguing he leads Premier League metrics whilst others criticise his concentration lapses, positioning problems, and inability to maintain consistency across ninety minutes. The consensus leans toward him being a useful squad player with genuine ability but significant flaws that prevent him from becoming a reliable top-flight starter.

Sentiment: -0.02 Aspect: player_performance neutral (25) admiration (15) approval (9)
@Bazooka183 he leads most metrics as a midfielder in todays Premier League because most of this players are scared to even tackle or pass forward. I think if he was around when the Vieras, Keanes, Gerrards, Lampards, Makaleles & Scholes of this world were playing, he would just be seen as an average
He can be good but he's has too many clangers in him. Also once he fucks up massively in a game he's basically dog shit for the rest of it
I fully agree, he’s shown class the past few matches. I think he’s going to be a pin for us in the future
When you say shit like this it undermines your entire post and perspective. He makes silly mistakes and I don't know if he is capable of being a first 11 player ever, however, when we need sit back and defend a lead and not worry about possession and passing it about, he's very useful indeed as he
Good in the air??! The numptie lets the ball bounce instead of clearing it, would ratjer play with an academy player who knows the basics.
Bakwa Divides Opinion in Forest Draw 69 posts positive

Nottingham Forest supporters are split on prospect Bakwa's performance in the 1-1 draw with Newcastle, with some praising his creative play and directness whilst others criticise his showboating and decision-making on the ball. The overall consensus leans towards cautious optimism about what the young player offers the side, particularly given Forest's injury concerns and relegation fight.

Newcastle Fans Despair Over Wissa's Toothless Display 104 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are venting their frustration at striker Wissa's anonymous performance in the 1-1 draw with Forest, with fans cataloguing his inability to hold possession, create space, or offer any meaningful attacking threat. The discourse has shifted into whether he should even remain at the club, with several posts comparing him unfavourably to alternatives and questioning what he brings to the side.

After yet another absolutely shite display from Wissa as well the issue seems even more pressing At least Wolte would have been an outlet to relieve the Forest pressure Wissa can't hold up the ball, can't run, can't pass, has a shite first touch, and has apparently lost the ability to shoot
Wissa is comically bad. Hes got paid and given up.
Newcastle Fans Dissect Osula's Missed Chances in Draw 130 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are heavily focused on Osula's wastefulness in front of goal, with multiple posts highlighting three missed sitters that could have changed the match outcome, whilst also debating his overall positioning and tactical role. The discussion reflects frustration that individual finishing errors—rather than defensive lapses—cost Newcastle a winning opportunity against Forest.

Sentiment: -0.08 Aspect: match_events neutral (80) admiration (14) amusement (6)

Forest were able to play their game once Osula went off as there was no one pressing from the front  Wissa that injury has fucked him i dont think he will ever recover fully 
Everyone picking out Wissa, Burn, Pope and the usual suspects but casually ignoring the fact Bruno missed a sitter and we'd be 2 up.
Those 3 missed sitters from osula are really coming back to haunt us
Osula be like: Harvey.... what is this one touch shot dark magic you posses???
Elliot Anderson's Late Equaliser Divides Fans 93 posts neutral

Nottingham Forest supporters hailed Anderson's dramatic 88th-minute goal as a moment of redemption and proof of his quality, with many praising his leadership and performance, whilst Newcastle fans were split between frustration at drawing and acknowledgement that they may have underestimated him during his time at St James' Park. The goalscorer's future moves also became a talking point, with speculation about potential transfers to bigger clubs.

Sentiment: -0.05 Aspect: match_events neutral (42) admiration (12) approval (6)

Fans Dissect Lucca's Frustrating Display in Draw 37 posts neutral

Nottingham Forest supporters are torn over striker Lucca's performance in the 1-1 draw with Newcastle, with some expressing sympathy for his struggles with the ball whilst others find dark humour in his ineffectiveness, though there's begrudging acknowledgement when he does win a physical battle. The discussion captures the tension of a side fighting relegation where even individual errors or poor form become collectively agonising to watch.

Sentiment: -0.03 Aspect: player_performance neutral (16) admiration (2) disappointment (2)

Forest Fans Lament Absences in Defensive Structure 263 posts negative

Nottingham Forest supporters are frustrated with their team's vulnerability to high pressing, blaming the absence of key defensive and ball-progressing players like Sangaré and Murillo who would normally help break opposition press. The discussion reveals deeper concern about squad depth and the challenge of maintaining their goalscoring form if further departures occur during the transfer window.

Sentiment: -0.35 Aspect: match_events neutral (91) disappointment (48) approval (23)
Betterer and massiver.
Give over, not even championship quality, offers nothing.
You mean area. They did it recently because we were missing our first team players that are particularly good when we don't have the ball.  Sangare has been a huge miss and obviously MGW, even Murillo as he gets forward way more than Milenkovic.  Just lost too many influential players and so o

Newcastle Fans Divided Over Nick Pope's Display 159 posts negative

Newcastle supporters are split on goalkeeper Nick Pope's performance during the 1-1 draw, with some praising his crucial saves whilst others criticise his positioning and decision-making, particularly regarding Elliot Anderson's late equaliser. The debate centres on whether Pope deserves blame for the goal or whether defensive lapses in front of him were the real issue.

Newcastle Fans Debate Barnes Goal and Squad Selection Woes 115 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are discussing Harvey Barnes's 74th-minute opener in a heated debate about Eddie Howe's recruitment and squad rotation decisions, with particular frustration over whether the club made the right calls on selling Elliot Anderson and Minteh whilst keeping Anthony Gordon on the bench. The wider conversation touches on whether Barnes deserves more prominent playing time and criticism of how Newcastle's attacking investments have failed to translate into consistent results.

Sentiment: 0.12 Aspect: match_events neutral (61) admiration (24) love (5)
How-e mad to let Minteh, & Elliot go, over Gordon! Because of the corrupt rules... Yes, hindsight. More like... blindsight Minteh & Anderson all day long!
Aye I agree 100%. I also reckon Harvey Barnes of Newcastle should start for England as well. 😊
He's disguising himself as Gordon to get playing time. Source: me, because I thought he was Gordon for a second due to the haircut, and my bad eyesight.
So is Gordon truly on the naughty step if he's being left on the bench again?
Sucks to be Harvey Barnes, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player whose goals have been more wasted. Everytime he scores first we drop points
Newcastle Fans Divided Over Eddie Howe's Future and Squad Direction 75 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are locked in a contentious debate about whether manager Eddie Howe deserves continued backing after another underwhelming season, with some defending his recruitment efforts and squad-building constraints whilst others demand his sacking, citing tactical errors and a repeating cycle of mid-table mediocrity. The discussion hinges on whether Howe's lack of power in the transfer market excuses the club's 13th-place finish, or whether a managerial change could unlock a squad that fans believe is capable of competing for European football.

Sentiment: -0.18 Aspect: team_overall neutral (36) curiosity (6) admiration (5)
The in-game management demonstrated today was excellent, Eddie. 👏🏾
Performance that just about sums up the season, the club, the apathy of so many first team players, the staleness of our management and the "he'll do" attitude of our gutless owners. Worse still, some of the fans are completely obsessed that the club are doing fine & "in Eddie we Trust" or would ha
Write off this season. Let's just see what the summer brings and hopefully Eddie will work on that back 5 formation because it looked somewhat promising
And if we don't achieve that, you'll be HoweOut? The issue with last summer is Howe didn't have anyone to negotiate for him.  But make no mistake, we signed Eddie's targets. We first bid for Wissa in the middle of July. Ramsay and Elanga have been targets for years. These are Eddie's signings, eve
We missed our main targets, all of them. Otherwise we would have: Delap, Pedro, Cunha, Mbuemo and Scalvini. Ramsey we brought in only once Longstaff has gone, but every other position we missed our main targets, then moved onto older ones, probably as we had no DoF to find alternatives. Eddie neve
Forest Fans Slam Yates as Dirty, Unlikeable Midfielder 34 posts negative

Nottingham Forest supporters have launched a sustained critique of Ryan Yates following his yellow card in the 54th minute, with the discussion centring on his aggressive, physical approach to play and his perceived reputation as an antagonist on the pitch. The negativity reflects a broader frustration with what fans view as his reckless behaviour and combative mentality during matches.

Sentiment: -0.44 Aspect: player_performance neutral (21) annoyance (2) anger (2)
Yates has got to be one of the most unlikeable cunts in the league.
Any cunt without a prosthetic leg makes that man
Yates or Lansbury, who's the bigger cunt who played for forest. Answer on a postcard.
Yates easily. Lansbury was a bit of a shithouse, Yates is just dirty
I always forget how much I hate that Yates cunt until we play these
Newcastle Facing Summer Exodus as Squad Overhaul Looms 53 posts negative

Newcastle supporters are grappling with the reality that key players like Hall, Tonali and Gordon will likely depart in the summer transfer window, forcing the club into an expensive and risky rebuild. Frustration centres on the club's poor recruitment record this season—with numerous signings flopping—and anxiety that Saudi backing may be wavering, leaving Newcastle vulnerable to a damaging fire sale.

Sentiment: -0.30 Aspect: team_overall neutral (18) disappointment (5) optimism (4)
hoping we get more than ten million for him lad lol
newcastle has some awful players, huge clearout in the summer needed.
And enlanga. Fancy parting with over £100m for those two 😣
Just wait till you sell Hall, Tonali & Gordan. They are not going to be easy to replace. Also have a feeling that the Saudis are bored with the project and might sell-up
I’ve never seen so many signings flop in a season. It’s actually remarkable, but their squad is heavily injury-prone too.
Nottingham Forest Secure Safety as Pereira Earns Praise 138 posts neutral

Nottingham Forest fans are celebrating their Premier League survival after a 1-1 draw with Newcastle, with the focus squarely on manager Vítor Pereira's impact in rescuing the club from a dire position under previous managers. The overwhelming sentiment is gratitude for staying up and optimism about next season under Pereira's leadership.

Well done lads . Thanks for staying in the prem we love ya loads. Come on you reds. Xxxxxx 🎉
We did good today well done lads!
Pereira has saved us. We’d have been relegated under at least 2 of our previous managers this season. Pleased to be safe with games to spare. Onto next season. You Reds!
Made yourself look a right bellend 😂
Disappointed about not reaching the final, regardless for a European campaign we are top 4 in the cup where many were worried about getting to the Quarter final. I am so proud of my team. Now shock Manchester United and beat the 'curse of Bournemouth'
Newcastle Fans Dissect Woltemade's Positional Crisis 146 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are overwhelmingly critical of Nick Woltemade's display against Nottingham Forest, with the discussion centring on his inability to perform effectively in multiple positions — whether deployed as a centre-forward, number ten, or midfielder. Fans argue that his lack of physicality, defensive capability, and technical consistency means tactical flexibility cannot mask a deeper quality issue, though some credit Eddie Howe for making the right substitution call.

Sentiment: -0.22 Aspect: player_performance neutral (70) admiration (11) curiosity (7)
Wolt was equally as shit today. He literally couldn’t control the ball or pass 5 yards.
It probably doesn't help that he doesn't look suited as a 10
He doesn't look suited as a 9 either. I think people just need to accept the fact that he's not very good wherever he plays
Disagree with Woltemade
Christ Woltemade was terrible... anyone thinking he was the answer to our problems, think again.
Newcastle Fans Question Bruno's Physical Condition 75 posts neutral

Newcastle supporters are heavily debating whether Bruno was physically capable of continuing during the 1-1 draw, with multiple fans noting he appeared to be struggling to run and walk, whilst others defend him and point to his missed chances as equally responsible for the dropped points. The discussion centres on Eddie Howe's team selection and substitution decisions, with fans divided on whether Bruno should have been withdrawn earlier or given more support.

Sentiment: -0.17 Aspect: match_events neutral (46) disappointment (7) curiosity (4)
Can’t believe he didn’t take Bruno off earlier. He could barely walk.
Fuck off Bruno was struggling to walk never mind run He’s a human not a machine
Did my ears register some booing at taking Bruno off?
Eddie fault that Bruno's decided to pass the ball back to Sels atleast 3 times today instead of just sticking it in the net.
Bruno's been off since coming back
Forest Fans Turn on Morato After Goalmouth Gaffe 77 posts negative

Nottingham Forest supporters have erupted in frustration at defender Morato following what appears to be a costly error or inexplicable decision-making moment during the match, with fans questioning his basic footballing intelligence despite occasional recent improvements. The negativity centres on Morato's inconsistency—he shows flashes of competence, then undermines himself with baffling lapses in either positioning, passing, or situational awareness that directly affect the team's ability to defend or build from the back.

Sentiment: -0.30 Aspect: match_events neutral (49) annoyance (5) anger (5)
I’m getting number 4 Morato on the back of all my shirts
Cue the people saying he’s been okay for a few games. He’s been alright - for Morato. i.e. went a couple of games without being directly responsible for conceding good chances if not goals. Technically and physically decent, but something clearly missing between the ears.
I've had a go at Bakwa in the past precisely because he didn't seem to putting any effort in, and didn't even look like a footballer, but he's done OK recently (not great, but OK). Morato has actually been good recently, not fantastic, but good. Neither of them will ever be starters, but you need a

Newcastle Fans Slam Dan Burn's Defensive Liability 77 posts negative

Newcastle supporters are heavily criticising Dan Burn's performance and broader deployment at left-back against Forest, with many arguing he lacks the pace, positioning, and technical ability to defend at Premier League level. The frustration extends to Eddie Howe's tactical choices, particularly the decision to play Lewis Hall out of position at right-back whilst Burn continues a streak without a clean sheet since October.

Sentiment: -0.33 Aspect: player_performance neutral (44) admiration (6) anger (5)
We didn't need Hall at RB to overload the right. He added nothing in terms of attacking play on that flank that e.g. Trippier couldn't. We had no reason to totally write off our left flank. Again, 0 crosses that I can remember from that flank for 90 minutes. Joelinton didn't play as another strike
Can't argue with that. I do feel the criticism of Burn is slightly harsh because he's a solid 3rd choice LB/4th choice CB and he's only LB because of injuries but yea, all 3 should have been upgraded on last summer as a priority
I can’t agree with that though. I think Burn is easily one of the worst players I’ve seen in a Newcastle shirt in my nearly 30 years of watching. He offers nothing. Can’t defend as proven today alone, never mind this season. He can’t physically run. He doesn’t have any technical ability and he cant
He’s a left footed player being pushed out to the right (just so Howe can make sure Burn gets game time) instead of playing him out left where he won’t keep cutting in and Trips in his position.
That's why you don't ask your weakest backline defender to play on his weaker side. Hall has looked so uncomfortable on that right side and he's not got the natural inclination to defend with his right so you're just asking for trouble in that kind of situation. Anderson scoring against us is pret
Referee Under Fire Over Controversial Penalty Call 218 posts negative

Fans are heavily divided over whether a foul should have been awarded in a match involving goalkeeper David Raya, with many arguing it met the standard for a routine penalty whilst others counter that Arsenal players were themselves committing fouls in the same incident. The discussion reflects broader frustration with inconsistent refereeing standards and suggestions that league politics may influence officiating decisions.

Sentiment: -0.48 Aspect: referee_decisions neutral (111) anger (32) amusement (16)
The goalkeeper was like: is there a ball around here?
The shirt pull from that last angle is more of a foul than the arm across
100%. And no consideration that his arm is across Raya only because he’s been fouled.
Gripping Raya's arm preventing him catching the ball. Those fouls have been routinely given in elite football for over a decade.
West Ham should have a penalty if there’s any foul there. I also think the premier league don’t want city to win it with the 115 charges and people getting angrier about that.
Forest's Left Flank Development Shows Promise for Next Season 38 posts neutral

Fans are analysing Nottingham Forest's wing and full-back options after the draw with Newcastle, with particular praise for Luca Netz's defensive display and growing confidence in academy prospects like Bakwa, Hutchinson, and McAtee, whilst debating whether fringe players like Ndoye should move on and how to best deploy attacking talent across the formation.

Sentiment: 0.06 Aspect: tactics neutral (19) admiration (5) approval (3)
Special word for Luca Netz today, and in the first half the Geordies didn't like going up against Bakwa, both should be kept to train on.
Agreed, would have made a big difference on Thursday too. A promising thing is that players like Bakwa, McAtte are getting better for next season. Also, it's spelt stabilise
netz looks really good, excited to see what he becomes next season. and hopefully he just doesnt end up getting loaned out like we did to half the players that look good (kalimuendo..)
In all fairness, Netz and Awoniyi weren’t in our Europa League squad thanks to Dyche. We only had one fit full back, who unfortunately can’t be cloned. If he could, I’d have both versions RB and LB
We have that awkward thing of should we sign a better winger or stick with Bakwa, Ndoye, Hutchinson, McAtee.
Newcastle Fans Turn on Eddie Howe After Draw 323 posts negative

A significant portion of Newcastle supporters are calling for Eddie Howe's immediate sacking following the 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest, citing a pattern of squandering winning positions and claiming the club has thrown away 27 points from winning situations this season. The discussion reflects broader frustration with the manager's tactical decisions and squad selection, with some fans arguing that achieving the club's stated ambition of being elite by 2030 requires replacing him with a world-class manager.

Sentiment: -0.42 Aspect: team_overall neutral (182) annoyance (23) disappointment (20)

Nottingham Forest Fans Debate Vítor Pereira's Future After Late Draw 38 posts neutral

Forest supporters are cautiously backing manager Vítor Pereira after his steady start since February, but remain uncertain whether he is the long-term solution, with some praising his work whilst others worry about his track record at previous clubs and question whether the club should be planning for alternatives. The consensus centres on the idea that squad strengthening is crucial to any manager's success, and that judging Pereira fairly is difficult without proper backing in the transfer market.

Particularly without the right personnel.

Newcastle Fans Divided Over Murphy's Right Wing Tactics 33 posts negative

Newcastle supporters are split on midfielder Jacob Murphy's performance on the right flank, with some praising his creativity and crosses whilst others criticise his tendency to cut inside rather than hugging the touchline, and questioning whether Nick Woltemade offers enough as an attacking outlet. The broader frustration centres on whether the current squad has sufficient technical quality to mount a sustained challenge, particularly in wide areas.

Sentiment: -0.31 Aspect: team_overall neutral (17) disappointment (3) surprise (2)
The players aren’t good enough. Still playing pope burn and Murphy is vile. All three are terrorists. We only have 2 good players in the team
Its so bad when Murphy is our 4th most technical player in the team...

Newcastle supporters are frustrated after squandering a chance to climb the table with a late 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest, with fans criticising their inability to convert dominance into victory and lamenting dropped points from winning positions.

Forest and Newcastle Fans Debate Tactical Formations 48 posts neutral

Supporters are dissecting the defensive setup choices made by both managers, with Nottingham Forest fans particularly frustrated by Vítor Pereira's shift away from a five-man defence despite its earlier success, whilst discussing personnel issues—injuries, missing pace in the squad, and the need for quicker ball circulation from the back to break press. Newcastle fans are similarly questioning Eddie Howe's tactical decisions and formation switches.

Sentiment: -0.23 Aspect: None neutral (19) anger (3) confusion (3)
It's not easy, but quick one touch passing without hesitation is one way. Some of our players like to take their time, particularly at the back. Sangare is good at bypassing the high press imo, that's why he is such a big miss for is at the moment. It would help if big T could get the ball to stick
Really on display today, we only have Bakwa with any serious pace. Taiwo's got some, but he's being asked to bring the long balls down. We have no pace at fullback either when Aina is out. Last season we had Elanga's pace paired up with Aina down the flank, with CHO's trickery on the other side (in
Was a bit frustrating at times but massive result considering the mix / missing regular players. What'd we think of the 3-4-2-1?
We lose too much time with back passes in the defense. Especially with three defenders. If Vitor Pereira wants to make a defense-first team, he would do better with the old goal kick style, ball to Taiwo and let's see what happens.

Newcastle Fans Dissect Lewis Hall's Late Defensive Lapse 53 posts neutral

Following Elliot Anderson's equaliser in the 88th minute, Newcastle supporters are intensely debating goalkeeper Lewis Hall's culpability for the goal, with opinion sharply divided between those who blame him for failing to anticipate or block the shot and those who argue he had limited options and shouldn't bear sole responsibility. The discussion highlights Hall's defensive vulnerabilities this season whilst acknowledging some solid moments in his overall performance.

Sentiment: -0.29 Aspect: match_events neutral (34) anger (5) disappointment (3)
Lewis hall should have stopped that
Not a clue why this has been downvoted, Hall was dropped because of errors. I agree he’s quality, but he’s prone to a little switch off defensively. Plenty of time for him to get better though.
Lewis Hall is so overrated. I've been saying this all year lol

Newcastle Fans Back Ramsey for More Regular Starting Roles 34 posts positive

Newcastle supporters are clamouring for Aaron Ramsey to get significantly more playing time, with many convinced he's become a pivotal creative force capable of unlocking defences from the number ten position. The consensus is that if he stays fit, Ramsey could be transformative for the club next season, having already impressed since January and particularly in recent appearances off the bench.

Jimmy Sinclair would be wonderful.
Ramsay Bruno Tonali needs to be considered.
Ramsey might be our best player today
If Ramsey can be kept injury free, he'll be a huge player next season. His passing to unlock defences is great.
Admittedly disliked the Ramsey transfer at first, he's really finding himself though.

Newcastle supporters are in disbelief over the club's catastrophic inability to hold onto leads, with fans calculating that the Magpies have now dropped 27 points from winning positions this season—potentially breaking the Premier League record for such collapses. The draw against Nottingham Forest epitomises a pattern of self-sabotage that has cost the club dearly in their top-four ambitions, with some fans suggesting they may have already surpassed the club's own worst record from 2004/05.

Debate Over Player's Recent Form Improvement 34 posts negative

Fans are split on whether a squad player has genuinely improved in recent weeks or if his earlier-season struggles justify continued criticism, with some arguing his recent performances have been solid whilst others insist his prior form was poor enough to warrant his earlier omission from the side.

Sentiment: -0.45 Aspect: player_performance neutral (18) annoyance (6) disappointment (3)
He's had a poor season to be honest. Had an ok second half today
And people will be saying that because he has. I'd still rather we didn't have to play him. But unlike earlier in the season, he's not particular let us down in the past few weeks.
He's been pretty solid of late, anyone not noticing that doesn't understand football. Yes, he was shit for 18 months prior to this season.
He's been solid, that's not me praising him, but doesn't deserve the hate he gets. Most backups in the league are championship quality at best, that's a very simple fact, hence why so many struggle at that level (see, Leicester).
Everyone has forgotten he fell off before he was dropped. He had a blistering first 5 games then average for a stretch after that before Gordon started playing up top

"Yeah I think this post captures exactly how I feel.  I don't think Murphy played bad, he did what he does. But we should be past that point now. Joelinton played really well, I really like him, but with him on LW we have no quality on either wing, so it all goes down the middle. Nobody did anything wrong,  but we should just be better"

"Well, add another manager who has out-coached Howe in-game in the Premier League. It's not Pereira either, it's Eddie Howe. We had control of the game and a lead (again), and his changes virtually guaranteed a drop in intensity and forward momentum. This season has been pure shit. I think he's staying, but I'd prefer to call time on him in the summer thanks"
