LISTEN: Newcastle fans vent their anger at referee Andre Marriner after loss to Arsenal

Tough crowd

Kevin McGillicuddy

Arsenal win again.

66% of Arsenal’s three goals so far this season haven’t even been scored by a player under the guidance of Arsene Wenger but who cares about stats when you’re winning.

The Gunners beat Newcastle today after Fabricio Colocinni deflected a shot from Alex Oxlade Chamberlain into the back of the net to give the Londoners all three points.

Andre Marriner didn’t have anything to do with that, but he did make enemies of the home crowd quite early as he flashed a a red card to Alexsander Mitrovic for a foul after 16 minutes.

Some felt it was the right decision

But it was pretty clear who Newcastle fans were directing their anger at after the game.

Andre might be able to say that it’s aimed at Steve McClaren but we think the Magpies are probably less than happy with the referee after today and yet another home loss.

Not even Carver got a boo like this.
