Been winning the midfield battle last 5ish mins.

McGinn gone off

 

[matty1878]

oh barry pass it

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

McNeil pulls the lads shirt as he’s breaking away, always going to get a yellow for that

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Classic Barry there, does really wel unexpectedly and then doesn’t play the simple pass to Grealish and loses possession

 

[NortheastBlue68]

Tony Harrington lives about a mile and half from me. I can only apologise.

 

[Trout Masked Replica]

Zero tug by McNeil

 

[NortheastBlue68]

McNeil pulls the lads shirt as he’s breaking away, always going to get a yellow for that

But the replay shows clearly that he didn't.

 

[Mickey]

Pass it Barry for god sake

 

[Marius57]

Barry should have passed earlier but Grealish just gave up and threw his arms up when he could have got to that loose ball.

Without KDH, our press is so much less energetic

 

[Houghty19]

Refereeing inconsistencies raising their head again McNeill booked for a slight pull yet villa bloke earlier tugged grealish shirt foul given yet no booking

 

[HappyJack]

Ref doing well for them he can hardly hide the bias…as ever

 

[Rita_Poon]

bad clearance pickford, tarkowski tidies up but poor clearance him... villa turn it over

 

[irishtony1878]

How is it allowed to put someone in a Japanese death hold at a corner without any punishment, but put your hand on an opponents shirt outside the box and its worth a yellow card??

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Tarko oh dear

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

But the replay shows clearly that he didn't.

Yeah but it’s us.
