Returning home to watch ‘Match of the Day` last night, I have to admit I have a degree of sympathy with Alan Shearer.
Watching a live feed of the game yesterday I was as convinced as Phil Thompson was that it was a clear foul on Mark Schwarzer by Kevin Nolan.
But, watching it again, I`m now convinced that Schwarzer probably went looking for the decision and in the hostile world of Premier League management, Shearer did remarkably well not to launch in a rant when interviewed, instead he simply commented,
‘We are bitterly disappointed at the disallowed goal.”
‘He got the big decision wrong. When he looks at it, he might think that as well.’
Normally, the suggestion is that these things even themselves out over the season, if so though, it doesn`t ease the heartache Newcastle face as they head off to Villa Park for a do-or-die fixture next weekend!
