From UEFA back in April
'In their guidelines for next season, the Board recommends that UEFA should clarify that no handball offence should be called on a player if the ball is previously deflected from his own body and, in particular, when the ball does not go toward the goal.'
Clubs "can't just buy success" and Newcastle fans are living in "dreamland" if they think they will sign top players like Kylian Mbappe.
That is according to former defender Jonathan Woodgate.
This is why...

You really do get the sense that playing for

Listen to him speak, often emotional and always speaks of pride about playing for the club.
Utterly bemused at how Jonjo Shelvey and Jeff Hendrick can keep their spot - the midfield has been bypassed far too often this season, and they are two of the main culprits.
You've got your best midfielder - Isaac Hayden - playing centre-back.

Jota should be embarrassed by that dive. Why hasn’t that been overturned by VAR? The referee watches that replay and surely he sees it’s not a penalty. Awful.

I remember when
#NUFC
fans were criticised for singing at the top of their voices because they watched their team beat Burnley. Funny old world.
Tammy Abraham - 1 goal in six games this season.
Callum Wilson, in a team that creates very little, six in seven.
But hey ho, it’s a benefit to
#NUFC
as it removes the risk of Wilson getting injured.
Rio Ferdinand told
#NUFC
fans who complained of an absent and uninterested owner to say ‘thank-you,’ and to ‘buy’ up the club.
His recent rant about

The analysis of some pundits and journalists on the MUFC protests - pushing justification of it because of the years of poor communication from The Glazers is laughable given some of them have criticised
#NUFC
fans for hitting out at Mike Ashley for the same thing.
IMO, there’s a bigger picture to Harvey Barnes &
#NUFC
. He doesn’t grab the headlines as a ‘statement signing’ nor will his name sell a boat load of shirts globally but this is a player NUFC have scouted, tracked and concluded he’ll improve the side. That’s the key, right?
I don’t think I’ve experienced a better atmosphere than the last two home games.
Amazing considering
#NUFC
hadn’t won in so long, were bottom of the table, and in both games hardly set the world alight.
Special, special fans - and the new owners know it too.
Joelinton, again. Not much more you can say about him, what a transformation under Eddie Howe.
He was brilliant again today. Strong, aggressive, good on the ball - a midfield enforcer! Who saw that coming.

you're a joke.
For me, banning the loan of players from associated clubs isn't an issue. It shouldn't be allowed to happen.
The issue is, it's all of a sudden become a problem because some Premier League teams **think** Newcastle United might try and sign Ruben Neves.
Any
#NUFC
fans who sang this last night should be ashamed of themselves.
I’m reluctant to even call them fans.
We have a stall outside of St James’ Park every match day which serves the country’s BUSIEST foodbank - and some think it’s okay to sing this?
We're all hoping Callum Wilson gets through the entirety of next season without an injury, right? The damage he could do to Premier League defences if fully fit is quite something.
#NUFC
Apparently, according to BT Sport, Steve Bruce will be happy with not conceding since the drinks break and going into the interval with the 'moral victory.'
Grand, can't wait to tell the grandkids about this little bit of success.

Pundits / journalists who clearly don’t watch

every week really need to start doing so before criticising fans and asking ‘what do they expect?’
How bad is it, they ask? Put it this way, if it wasn’t my job to watch them, I wouldn’t be.

fans criticising
#NUFC
for going for it last night, when so many teams ‘roll over for City’
A) it’s a game of football when the main premise is to actually win
B) oh, and NUFC beat Man City back in January 🙄
Eddie Howe asked what his style of play is...
"We love to attack, be front-foot, and play with speed.
"I base my style of play on what I would like to watch myself."
I think that'll do for
#NUFC
fans!
Andy Carroll was pushed to the floor in the closing stages by Sidibe, and I can't work out how it's not a penalty.
The defender has two hands on his back with his arms outstretched too.
What's the point of VAR if it doesn't get those decisions right?
#NUFC
If this goes through, and by the sounds of things it’s close - the party, once the lockdown is lifted, will be the biggest Tyneside has ever seen.
What a day that will be!

In my new role, video plays a big part! And when I get to make a video like this, it’s absolutely brilliant.

It's an absolute scandal that Rafa Benitez has been allowed to leave
#NUFC
. A man who has held this club together through one of its most turbulent times. This could be the biggest mistake of the last 12 years - and there has been a few.
I just keep thinking about Steve Bruce saying ‘we need to find a way.’
If you can’t find a way against the side in 19th, who have conceded 56 goals this season and have won only 3 all season - who do you find ‘a way’ against?
#NUFC
That Miguel Almiron goal is one of the best we’ve seen at St James’ Park over the last few years. The pass from Bruno Guimaraes is sublime, and the finish from Miggy, from that angle, is something special.
#NUFC
Chris Wood has had his critics but his cameo there was absolutely crucial. Will he hit 20 goals a season, no? But really important role played in those final few moments.
#NUFC
Sure, the Dwight Gayle chance will be pointed to and how that goes in and the game changes course but the fact that NUFC proved they could threaten makes that first half, and the approach, even more questionable.
#NUFC
Would have been very easy for Miguel Almiron to come on tonight and go missing given the speculation and the needless abuse on this platform in recent days but he didn’t. He put in an important shift. Nice to hear the away end singing his name as he was introduced.
#NUFC
‘It is not a good look for the manager to be moaning about injuries all the time.’
This is something Eddie Howe simply hasn’t done. In-fact he’s done his best to avoid using it as an excuse for the poor form. Most managers wouldn’t haven’t done.
Just received a response from the Premier League to the following question:
'How could an offer of an independent arbitration tribunal be made when no decision had been made?'
The answer 'thank you for your email but we won’t be providing any further comment to the letter.'
‘The club [is] set to cite decisions that have gone against them since last season in their next meeting in a bid to prove a pattern.’
A pattern. Good lord. Near enough every team could ‘prove a pattern,’ if desired.
Utterly embarrassing from Arsenal.
