If there's one positive I took from that shit 2.5 hours of my life, it's the challenge Havertz put in.

Saudi Arabia upon Tyne (credit: 7amkickoff) try to murder Saka constantly? Crickets.

Havertz puts in an admittedly yellow-worthy challenge? Newcastle bitch and clutch pearls until they get 3 separate cards for dissent.

I'm so sick of watching us get kicked up and down the pitch, lose, then have to listen to pundits talk about how we couldn't match their physicality. I'd rather be the kid who punches their bully in the face and gets sent home from school.

As someone who has been the kid who punches my bullies in the face, definitely prefer that than sucking it up and acting like everything's fine

Havertz's is a clean yellow, and really nothing more.

Exactly - and if nothing else, it showed the magpies that we weren't going to let them push us around unanswered. I honestly wish we'd gone in hard on a few other players, but we were probably too busy trying to PLAY THE FUCKING GAME...

I 100% support this statement. For as long as this bullshit remains a problem, everyone should continue to call it out.

"Attwell attracted heavy criticism for awarding Reading a goal against Watford when John Eustace had kicked the ball over the byline four yards wide of the goal before it was put back into play by Noel Hunt."

History repeats itself...
