We are a point behind Newcastle in the league, according to Mcoist and Twatterface they have a huge chance of champions league football next season and if we finished 7th it would be an outstanding season.
Absolutely abysmal commentary as usual from itv yesterday as it has been since the dawn of time. As well as talking absolute rubbish 90% of the time mcoists voice is grating and incomprehensible.

Amazing how often it's spoiling the game, when it's a big club having goals chalked off.McCoist having a pop at Var being used to rule out Newcastle wonder strike yesterday! Says its spoiling the game
Don't remember it spoiling the game when Dunk's beautiful goal against everton went in, or Mac's against Leicester.
I believe the term used then was, "Offside, is offside"

I only half listen to the commentary so have no strong feelings about it. Low expectations I expect. I did notice Matterface saying Mitoma is on the ball. I thought ‘What’s he doing on the right wing?” before realising he meant Minteh! Easy mistake to make I suppose. 
He also said that Gomez had been playing with Messi at Inter Milan. Miami, Milan - easy to mix upI only half listen to the commentary so have no strong feelings about it. Low expectations I expect.

So it’s not about being booked in back to back rounds?

I enjoyed the commentary. McCoist is my favourite on ITV. Loves the game and is very intelligent with it. Adds a bit of excitable fun to the game.
Matterface is a bit shit, but I do quite like McCoist. At least he sounds like he ENJOYS being there (doing a job we'd all love).
Far better that vibe, than some twat like Martin Keown, Efan Ekoku or Don Goodman moaning their way through the whole thing.
He might have been edging to Isak but Danny made him blow his load.

Or Lee Dixon. A man who possibly can't spell 'excitement', let alone express it.
Lee Dixon on any forward missing any presentable chance:
"Wrighty would have scored that"
Lee Dixon on any keeper doing anything good"
"David Seaman would have been happy with that"
Lee Dixon on any defender...
"Tony Adams used to... blah blah..."
Lee Dixon on any manager
"What Arsene would have done here, is....."
Yes, we get it Lee. You played for Arsenal. Time to move on, mate.
The offside goal is odd how they only looked at Schar IMO. There's three Newcastle players in the box in offside positions as the ball is played. Murphy (I think) is just stood bang in the middle and should be flagged.

I just love the images of SMUG EDDIE at the final whistle. Inject it into my veins.

At least the pundits were good enough to concede how well organised we were, to have both goals chalked off for offside (Livramento take note!)
Anyone know a site that can confirm the number of disallowed goals conceded per club,
It feels like We have had loads, this season, I was wondering if we are outperforming the rest of the division.

Unless I was mistaken, I thought McCoist was claiming that BOTH teams had a chance of making CL. I remkarked to Bobkin Jnr that it was a bit far-fetched...
I like McCoist, but I did think he went a bit OTT about the both of the goals that were ruled out. They weren't goals, mate – doesn't matter how good the finish was, they count for fack all
Plus, the choice of Danny as MotM was on a par with some of those at the Amex that are made by fans who have sponsored a game, got pished and then said the first name that came into their heads!
