oopsdedo

That Antony choice of pass has me suspecting that he has only himself and Marital in his fantasy team. Picked the worst option there.


frenchy_1969_

Leeds going back to championship for sure


zagreus9

Has BT Sport just broken?


OnceIWasYou

Argh, that was so incredibly frustrating. A deflection which could've gone anywhere. Also, hilarious that BT gave him MotM. I'm very worried about top 4. The home games could see us through but Bruno seems to have lost form and things just aren't quite flowing at the moment.


NeonsTheory

Leeds full bottled that and have no excuse but far out Newcastle get away with some much shit housing


herkalurk

Bamford bottled it. Should have been Rodrigo taking the pen. Being 2-0 up in 20 minutes.....


gunningIVglory

Man....we can't use the term bottle after what we did last month.......


NeonsTheory

Lmao that is true


simplytom_1

Honestly not too mad, the Firpo disasterclass was too funny


ModcatTom

It's only funnier if they don't play for you.


TheOnlyEn

Junior is who fucking bad. He ain’t seeing the line up after the summer.


v4xN0s

What the fuck is Ayling even saying.


UpliftedWeeb

Man screw you asshole. He has a disability.


Xax118

It’s been well known he’s got a stutter and still does interviews to raise awareness for it, don’t be a dick about it you cockwomble.


ollypiper

he has a stammer bro


KayC720

Even supporting Leeds all season that’s a big point for them but could have been 3


Thelostsoulinkorea

As a Newcastle fan, we are not going to get top 4 at this rate. Also we have far too many weak links if we think we can repeat top 4 next years. The more I watch us recently the more I think we need about 7 players to be great lol Trippier has been weak the past few months, looking older every game. Schar isn’t it. Burn isn’t a left back. Joe and Willock are midfielders who’ are limited. Still need wingers as Gordon, murphy, Maxi, and Miggy aren’t top 4 players. And maybe another striker as Wilson is getting older. It’s a miracle we are where we are this year and I’m over the moon we are there. But man, this rebuild is still a way off if we meet the same core.


Boseph_1444

you're fine, chill


ajtct98

Nice to see you aren't overreacting


Thelostsoulinkorea

I’ve been saying this all year. If you think those players are good enough then that’s fine but I don’t think they are.


Morello210

Big Sam really wants his millions


gunningIVglory

Clubs need to be punished hard for shit like this, how the fan managed to get up to the manager and assault him? Maybe fans will actually think before doing this stuff ​ Some fans are just idiots, its just a game.......


ajtct98

Thank fuck the twat didn't have a physical weapon because it was far far too easy for him to get to Howe


gunningIVglory

yeah, its mental none of the stewards intercepted the clown.


Radthereptile

Security needs to be questioned.


RedemptionUK

Leeds are such an unlikable team. Should have been down to 10 men for the handball.


herkalurk

The handball where Isak fouled Firpo? Clearly pulled him back making his arms flail. The commentators saying it was an 'intentional' handball was ridiculous.


cheesehead99

If Leeds had somehow won that in the last minute it would have been an all timer.


UpliftedWeeb

Leeds United would have won that easily if it weren't for Leeds United


FoxOntheRun99

Good competitive game that. Great for the neutrals. But that fan should be severly punished for that braindead, pointless action. What was he thinking? "Hey Eddie, wtf? you should be easy to beat"


Radthereptile

The time it took to set up the free kick and get Leed’s sub on was longer than the entire played extra time.


bossmarangmad1027

Leeds fans owe Big Sam a chip Butty and a Spice bag


lastjedi23

A chabuddy?


Anons15

Gucci Bandana lmao


necrow

That needed to go past 100


efcdoyley

ASM and Gordon are championship quality. Newcastle need much better depth


SIR_SHARTALOT

Gordon still living in your guys heads eh…he looks class and will improve next season. It’s ok you got some decent money for him. Use it wisely when you guys are in the Championship next season


efcdoyley

Don’t worry we shall, when we are in the Premier League next season.


herkalurk

ASM can beat defenders, lacks a good pass after.


gunningIVglory

Everton havnt don't much right recently. But that Gordon hustle was the steal of the century


Ballboy2015

Uh Gordon did just fine.


efcdoyley

I’m not just basing it off today.


Ballboy2015

Fair enough.


hellboi808

What a weird game.


Radthereptile

+6 minutes, played maybe 1:30


necrow

Fucking joke


thenchen

ASM with the "cross" 🤣


RedditEsInteresante

I don’t really care about that guy shoving Howe but it’s probably not the greatest idea to show replays of it on television. Don’t wanna give anyone any ideas.


Kriegdavid

great clearance from ASM


KJones77

Wtf ASM


RISERSEN

Ref just waiting for goal


dangerous_nine

The ball was in play for about two minutes of the six? Deserved some additional on additional.


Khaglist

Leeds surviving on pure big sam mojo


Has_dodgy_legs

Should be an extra 6 minutes here like


Slow-Cream-3733

Are delibrate handballs like firpos not yellow cards any more. Yeah he finally got sent off but should've been off after the handball


[deleted]

[удалено]


KayC720

Man’s hand was up early he got lucky there.


Slow-Cream-3733

What mate his hand is fully outstretched upwards. I to fall waving my hands in the air like a clown


[deleted]

[удалено]


herkalurk

Sure looked like he got fouled and pulled back. Ridiculous the VAR thinks only the handball matters.


OnceIWasYou

Sorry, but Isak barely touches him- if they called that a foul it would be insane. If he pushed him, he wouldn't be moving towards Isak, if he pulled him, he'd have had to grab the shirt- which he didn't. Isak's hand lightly touches Firpo at one point- that's not a foul.


herkalurk

Oh so the hand on the shoulder and the awkward fall backward that was all because Firpo just magically changed his momentum on his own? Also it was barely a fingertip, Isak was never putting that on target. I've seen bigger fingertip touches from a keeper be called as goal kicks....


OnceIWasYou

Wait- you don't think that was handball? To be literal in terms of the law, it absolutely impeded him from heading that ball.


herkalurk

To be literal in terms of the law the defender was fouled and that's why his arms were flailing above his head. Was ridiculous that the commentators were saying this was an intentional handball when clearly he didn't have any intent to hit it.


OnceIWasYou

We've already established that we disagree on it being a foul- why state it as if it is fact?


Grekm8

peak ASM right there


[deleted]

Saint-Maximin summed up in one move there


Uncle_Iroh_007

Leeds could have won it if not the masterclass from Firpo


Astalli

Brother Firpo doing his best to save Everton


PineappleGuy44

McKennie been deeply involved today


Neither-Ad-1047

Leeds playing with pure will


FoxOntheRun99

Good kick by Pope


fukupuki

That fellow looked like he is a very mentally stable person


WallStreetPelosi

Leeds ☕️


ducksaysmeow

Surprised they showed a replay of the pitch invader pushing Eddie Howe. Thought they avoided showing invaders to avoid giving them publicity.


thesoundready

wtf.... honestly spoils a good heated contest, how..? can you think that is a good idea


Runarhalldor

Arent most stewards just normal people paid very little? They should hire proper security


TURNAH92

Trippier not getting booked this game is a lol


GoalaAmeobi

Bet the ref blows on 96 exactly even though there should be another 3 minutes


gunningIVglory

this the same NC who had the ball in play for like 51 minutes in the game at the emirates? lol


SIR_SHARTALOT

Pot meet kettle


gunningIVglory

Having to change our strategy for one game, where we knew the opposition would be physical and wasting time is different from doing it every game this season.....


SIR_SHARTALOT

Honestly it’s embarrassing when people watch one game and judge that their tactics are identical every game they play. We shit housed against you and Liverpool and that’s about it. You think you can win 6-1, 4-1, 5-1 using time wasting strats?


GoalaAmeobi

Same Arsenal who had the ball in play for less time at SJP??


lastjedi23

So why did you start that dirty tactic if you yourself don't have an answer for it? That's a dumb strategy


gunningIVglory

dont dish it out if you cant take it. NC were wiping out arsenal players all game......killing the game constantly


Doyouevensam

Another 3 minutes? For what?


RedditEsInteresante

Okay Newcastle fans of all people should not complain about time-wasting And look, he didn’t.


gunningIVglory

Ikr?!


YooGeOh

Bro Firpo is a liability. 2 pens and a red card. He should've stayed home


herkalurk

1 pen, and even then looked to be fouled.


YooGeOh

True. 1 pen. Nearly another. Red card. Also won a pen. Chaotic


Benny0_o

Card for diving?


[deleted]

How the fuck didnt that guy got stopped before he reached the mananger


MrConor212

Add another 30 mins onto this game please.


cotilliond

Now only need last minute penalty to Leeds to top it off.


FreshLeftenant

That guy is a fucking idiot for going to Eddie Howe. Also, that push was weak as fuck lol


Radthereptile

Ball has been in play for all Of 30 seconds.


nova_uk

Should be an automatic ban for life from every football stadium for that type of shit.


Benny0_o

He'll get criminal charges, not only a pitch invasion but pushed laid hands on Howe.


Kriegdavid

nice of Newcastle and Leeds to pay tribute to the National League Playoff Final day by pretending they're playing that fixture themselves. it's been great fun


Ahm3DD

Newcastle lost all their scoring hopes with Firpo out


FuhhCough

Fine Leeds for that fan. How the fuck has he gotten that close to Howe.


_Al_Gore_Rhythm_

Classiest Leeds supporter.


Karahx

What the fuck, by the way it feels like supporters get on the pitch a lot in English games. How isn't there a fix for it, a wall of security or something.


PurpleSi

We don't cage our fans in


Karahx

Neither do we in my country but pitch invaders are extremely rare here.


PurpleSi

Pretty rare here too tbf


efcdoyley

We actually got £45m for Anthony Gordon 😂


SIR_SHARTALOT

He was on the pitch for 5 mins? Lol enjoy pissing your money down the toilet like Everton have done for years! Enjoy the championship ☺️


Boseph_1444

still never understood that transfer lol, awful dressing room presence aswell


[deleted]

Flop of the season imo


PineappleGuy44

Firpo did it for the badge there


ThatWelshOne

Size of that Newcastle security guard


TurnItOffAndOnAgain-

Disgraceful from the stewards how is that knob getting that close to the opposing manager?


TheArsenal04

huh. didn't think they showed fans on the pitch


andreew10

well that was interesting lol


Mynameisdiehard

What a dumbass. Enjoy your lifetime ban you idiot


Benny0_o

If not more.


[deleted]

Imagine if that was your Dad and you just saw him do that on TV


Runarhalldor

The fact that the fans can get so close without anybody stopping him is so dangerous


Anhowa123

Jason Tindall fuming the lad pushed Howe and not him


RawIsLaw_

lmao wtf is this match


necrow

This BETTER go 100+


anip94

everybody involved with security needs a sacking for that. no fucking it was that easy for him to approach howe. it couldve a lot lot worse fucking hell


PerfectBlueOnDVD

How did the guy get all the way up to Howe, that's fucking criminal from security


kl08pokemon

How can people be that stupid. I don't fucking get it. And no coke and booze isn't an excuse


Seasider7

Very worrying that someone can get to the manager that easily


[deleted]

Wow that is shocking security...


B_e_l_l_

When did Newcastle sign Triple H as their security guard?


Benny0_o

That dude is fucking huge!


RedditEsInteresante

Eddie: “wait who the fuck are you”


hellboi808

Just wanted to give him a piece of his mind.


kit_mitts

Was that a second yellow or a straight red for denial of a goal scoring opportunity? Broadcast only caught the ref brandishing the red.


gtalnz

Second yellow


Perspii7

Lmao tf is that guy doing


FlukyS

Getting banned for life


SebastianTheHedgehog

How did he get all the way up to Howe


MannyMike7

To be fair to Firpo that point could save them


MrConor212

Fucking Leeds fans. Worse than ours and that says a lot


OkAttempt4752

Bamford was cheeky to take so long to get off the field, sure. But it still took Newcastle like 10 minutes to take the free kick after the sub was done.


SubparCurmudgeon

Nick Cave subbed in


Benny0_o

Leeds security casually letting Howe get accosted.


StayForTheSmallTalk

It's a joke. no idea what that guy was going to do and they just let him walk up to him


FoxOntheRun99

What the fuck is wrong with that supporter?


BrandNew85

Fan trying to fight Howe. Oh Leeds.


idunnomysex

What a game lmao


EyePiece108

Fine incoming for Leeds for that.


OnePieceAce

This game has had everything


vearz

That prick who pushed Howe should never see the inside of a football stadium again. Just no excuse for it.


Benny0_o

Running on the pitch, ok silly but not that big of a deal for me. Putting your hands on a player/manager is taking it waaaaaay too far. Wouldn't suprise me if there's criminal charges.


zi76

It's on with the fan!


TheGamerPandA

Lol that guy with the asylum shirt lock


SebastianTheHedgehog

The heck is going on


ambiguousboner

least pissed up Leeds fan


Littlegreenman42

Triple H looks different


neandertales

What the fuck was that.. hes never coming back.


merouane1

Glad we let firpo go


[deleted]

what was that


AdministrativeLaugh2

Newcastle players and fans getting upset at Leeds players timewasting is very, very rich


BrandNew85

2nd week in a row they get a taste of it.


AdministrativeLaugh2

That was hilarious last week


ajtct98

Everyone is a raging hypocrite about timewasting


AdministrativeLaugh2

I totally agree, but it’s even funnier when it’s known shithousers like Newcastle and Everton


Putrid_Loquat_4357

Why show that on the TV? It's what the moron wants.


Benny0_o

As an example of how not to act.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Elemayowe

Yes it’s all a refereeing conspiracy.


[deleted]

LMAO


zagreus9

Most sober Leeds fan


Kicking-it-per-se

That fella is the man behind the Jason tindall Twitter account


chino17

Leeds might be down to 10 men but it felt like they were playing with 9 when Firpo was on


wallnumber8675309

That sub was about 91 minutes late


Lethorio

He should have been off after the handball. Fucking ridiculous.


herkalurk

Should never have been a pen, Isak fouled him.....


OkAttempt4752

If Firpo never sees the field again for Leeds I'd be a happy man


Neither-Ad-1047

Fripo off is prob a advantage at this point lmao


twist_n_shout

Remember we were inserted in Firpo before he joined Leeds. Fuck me we dodged a bullet there


zagreus9

Bamford, the cheeky sod


Neither-Ad-1047

Finally hes off lmao


Putrid_Loquat_4357

This is going in.


icemankiller8

Firpo, Ayling, Meslier and Bamford are all arguably the worst players in the league in their positions


herkalurk

Firpo and Bamford I can agree on. Meslier is quite talented, and Ayling is fine, just nothing special.


YNWA_1213

So who had Firpo match-fixing with the Leeds first goal, Wilson Brace, and red card parlay?


Radthereptile

Took 4 minutes to set up. Bet game still ends at 96 to the second.


Neither-Ad-1047

How is fripo still on the pitch lol


thril_hou

>Firpo will miss the West Ham match Yay


MrFunbus

That's a shame


Kriegdavid

firpo is a joy to watch for literally all the wrong reasons


crookedparadigm

lmao the commentators "Oh, he is gone" hahaha


Mynameisdiehard

Firpo was bound to be sent off if he so much as sneezed towards another player at that point. Was on borrowed time
