    Saw the Newcastle fans post-match applauding Anthony Taylor for a good game and “letting the boys play” before I saw the penalty they got… lmao

    Bit peeved giving away the lead twice but I can’t say I was confident seeing out a win here.

    What is the point of VAR when the refs running it are too cowardly to correct a call for the on field referee who’s relying on them to make the decision? Ridiculous how often good matches get clouded by referee incompetence, feel bad for wolves here

    I’ll take the point, but I’m getting so exhausted of every other one of our games being decided by dogshit refereeing decisions. Completely saps any enjoyment out of the game when you just know they’re gonna get soft penalties which they’ll never call for you.

    Both teams had a fair share of possession, attacking chances and defensive blunders. The officiating was atrocious. Huge shame that Pedro Neto is injured. It could make room for an unusually entertaining SHUWOL game though. I’d say 2-2 is a fair result.

    We looked absolutely knackered to say the least, 2 keepers/5 fullbacks and a recently injured Willock on the bench. Ref was wank as well, shit game all-round

    Good result given Taylor’s best efforts to help Newcastle. It feels like the fight is there which was lacking earlier this season which is extremely promising. Not sure where we end up, more than likely low mid table but certainly we look good at the moment.

    Absolutely cracking game only held back by that awful referee performance. How was that wrestling move not a foul on Kalajdzic?

    Wolves look really really good, but losing Neto did kill their momentum quite a bit.

    Wolves looked really good again, Neto going off like that hurt to watch, O’Neill continues to impress

    Also Hawng scoring in 6 consecutive home games, another stat that feels like it’s come out of nowhere, credit to him

    I do think a point is a fair result on balance. Thought we did well not to fold after Neto’s injury. If the injury is what it looked like then our fun season is about to become a grind very quickly.
