I paid £400 to watch us lose 3-2 (Legends lounge). My mate returned the favour and we lost 3-2.
The first game v Brighton, under SC, we scored early but were then outplayed, 1-2 at HT.
Ref gave them a soft pen, didn't give us the same but was persuaded to give it by VAR - Dunk had a meltdown and was sent off. We couldn't get back from 2-3.
Second game Newcastle, possible dark arts as they scored from a corner, 2-2 at HT. Awoniyi scored but was just offside, then he was through but fouled by the keeper.
Turning point of the season. Even Shearer said it was a penalty but VAR looked the other way. Dominguez shoved over to create space for their winner, but again ignored. 2-3 again and it all continued downhill from there.
