Are the BBC trying to get back on big Sam's good side by editing the match for MotD so it looks like it was all Newcastle? I watched MotD this morning and then a recording of the game on Football First on Sky, where I was able to get a more balanced view.
Considering the team got back to blighty at 5am on Friday, I was pleased to see how comfortable we were for most of the second half. As for their goals: in the first half, when Butt eventually got a yellow card it should have been his second, thus eliminating their first one; Emre should already have been deported, thus eliminating their second one, and Stubbsy should have been on instead of Joey, thus eliminating Owen's shouldered one.
So, I make it we won 2-0 and are 5th, just behind the [Poor language removed] on goal difference
