I 100% agree, Gordon should be retrospectively charged with deceiving the referee like all those other players have been....oh wait.
I don't think Gordon dived but he put himself in a position to be fouled that he wouldn't have done anywhere else on the pitch. He bought the penalty, the keeper was a plank. Had the ref not given it I wouldn't have thought too much about it but I get why he gave it.

He is a serial diver, no question. I hope someone gets hold of him at some point, Newcastle player or coach, and stops him.

Decieving an official isnt just about simulation. If the authorities really want to stamp it out they could but they dont.
 
I was surprised to see the ref at Villa park stick with his decision yesterday, 1st time this season a ref hasnt changed his mind.

Over 50+ referrals by VAR to refs last season and every decision was changed after they were sent to the monitor.

From the angles MOTD showed the defender got the ball - twice
 
It seems that it’s now ok again to swear at the officials again - Pickford unleashed a number of F bombs towards the ref and nothing 🤷‍♂️

And how was that offside for the Arsenal goal when the ball went to Martinelli who was onside but Nketiah was 🤷‍♂️ and was the play by the Everton player a “deliberate” play at the ball - edit - need to see the whoLe move againb
 
Get up Saka. Jeez they do my head in with all the "get the stretcher quick" when in fact they have barely been touched, if at all.

Ref should book them. He was suddenly up and fine to moan about the lack of a free kick.
 
Ramsdale dropped, the end for him at Arsenal if he has International ambitions?
Got to say I'm surprised, but Arteta obviously wanted Raya in and plans to have him as his Number 1.

Ramsdale doesn't need to play to get picked for England. Although he could win the treble with Man City, and would still not get ahead of Pickford.

While GS is in charge anyway
 
There is a great group on FB called Lost Football Grounds and Terraces that also put up the results from years gone by on this day

This is from 35 years ago - interesting to see clubs in the Prem now and where they were then
