Did Haaland get a card of any colour for throwing the ball at Gabriel's (?) head
after they equalised? I'm starting to dislike this bloke a lot.

That would make me laugh so hard if he actually did receive a card for anything. It would be so amusing it would send a lot of oppo teams' fans to "Ha-ha" land?

No card was given, so it does leave the door open for a retrospective red card. I wouldn't hold your breath though.

I thought it was hilarious. Top marks from me.
My instinct was that it was accidental, funny, but not intended.

But I did wonder why he wasn't punished regardless.

Why? It was funny. Having put up with Arsenal's constant CHEATING (calling it 'the dark arts' is a big part of the problem IMO) I didn't blame him at all.

Ipswich showed more attacking intent at our place than Arsenal did yesterday, even before the self-inflicted red card, Ipswich I can understand, Arsenal have spent £100s of millions on their squad and this is meant to be their season.....

Seems to be the Arsenal way, park the bus & get a breakaway goal when playing away from home.

The laws are not the same for BIG clubs playing at home. Didn’t watch but did we go into “Pep“ time at the end?

City are pretty well schooled in the dark arts, so moaning about Arsenal employing them is a bit hypocritical.

There it is again "the dark arts", it's cheating, if the media started to call it what it actually is then it might improve a bit.
I don't want to pay my money to watch a team time waste from literally the first minute.
I also completely understand a lower league club going to a big EPL club and defending for their lives. But f***ing Arsenal doing it, seriously?

From the last few seasons I think Fulham are the worst in the league against us in the “dark arts”

I used to quite like them, despise them these days

That's Villa IMO.
And stop calling it the "dark arts"!!!!!! It's cheating, it's not Harry Potter!!!
I only use it because Velts is a World Champion at them, and there is no way that I am calling him a cheat! :smile:

Villa are definitely up there with Fulham too :angry:

There are actually many posters on this message board that seem to specialize in the "Dark Arts."

Is anyone actually saying that this was violent conduct? Give ya head a wobble.

Probably should've been a yellow for "Unsporting Behaviour [12.3]" but was never ever a red.
