       I have been involved in football at senior level for 58 years
       and have been watching it for around 73 years and your statement
       is typical of football throughout those years whether played at
       Newcastle, Arsenal, Old Trafford and even Wembley. Home teams
       always seem to get the rub of  the green, however, officials do
       their best to give fair decisions on what they see and this is a
       fact.
       I think that there will, and always has been, unconscious bias
       towards the home side, particularly with a large crowd in
       attendance.
       VAR has not helped this at all and fans will always feel that
       "poor little (enter any club outside the Big Six)" have been
       hard done by.
       It will not change so just get used to it ---I have with
       reservations.

       Poor today I have to agree with everyone …. Red was clear cut !
       Should have banged it out straight away… didn’t need to go
       yellow.
       Also Newcastle had 2/3 mandatory cautions not given !! So first
       big acid test for Barrett and failed imo …. Needs to be stronger
       going forward and get the card out evenly … 2/3 missed cautions
       today not good.
       The “hype” that surrounded him very much now has pretty much
       gone now for me until I see some stronger officiating.

       The red may be clear cut, but Match of the Day showed Mr
       Barrotts view was obscured by a Newcastle player cutting across
       his view at the moment of contact so would be an element of
       guessing. Good VAR intervention and fairly quick to realise its
       a red with a better angle.
       Examples of the mandatory cautions you believe he missed would
       be helpful to allow others who havent seen the full game to
       understand why you feel he did so poorly. Hes in his 7/8th? PL
       game and already had 2 top 6 sides, even if he had a below par
       performance hell still be one of the better performing referees
       so far this season

       "Young" or "inexperienced" players make mistakes, learn from
       them and become better. Many a pro in most major sports talks of
       intimidating places to go, where the crowd has ab affect (be it
       the shed at Gloucester, Old Trafford in its pomp, I always found
       Luton a bear pit). Until you have been in these atmospheres you
       don't know how it will affect you and you adjust next time.
       Sam has a couple of decent Championship games next which will
       test him and aide his development further.

       Very poor by MOTD, not only was Silva's interview 'ridiculed'
       with some sort of background music but they were happy to
       broadcast his post-match comments but apart from glossing over
       the Lascelles elbow, they failed to show any examples of why he
       and most Fulham fans felt that Barrott's performance was frankly
       unfair.
       It wasn't just the 'one-way award of fouls and cards', I feel
       Salisbury let Fulham down too. The fact that Barrott missed the
       Lascelles elbow, Salisbury should've recommended an OFR. Muniz
       was apparently cleaned out at the start of the build up to a
       NUFC goal but this wasn't reviewed (apparently) or discussed. I
       still believe the offside lines were incorrectly drawn for
       Newcastle's 2nd, as Wilson's shoulder was just goalside but
       Salisbury appeared to use his foot which was onside.
       I thought Barrott made a great start as a PL ref, but as I said
       at the time, his first game at Fulham was a very easy game to
       manage. This time he fell short and I hope the powers that be
       recognise this and throttle back slightly his rise to the top

       First of all, Lascelles contact with Jimenez was a foul and a
       yellow card.  Unless Salisbury thought it was a clear error and
       should have been red he cannot recommend a review can he?
       Secondly, how anyone who has watched that game can say that the
       Jimenez foul was not a red card is a genuine mystery to me.  He
       went in with force, had both feet well off the ground so was not
       in control and made heavy contact with the player's head.  If
       that is not endangering the safety of an opponent I don't know
       what is.
       Silva has too much history with blaming defeats for his team on
       refereeing performances.  He has now done three times in a row
       against these opponents and his behaviour in the FA Cup tie at
       Old Trafford last season was disgraceful.  Fulham lost yesterday
       because of the petulance from Jimenez.  He should be berating
       his player not the referee.  Players make far more mistakes than
       referees.
       I wouldn't be surprised if Silva faces an FA charge for his post
       match comments.  Questioning the competence of a referee and
       implying bias towards one team is simply wrong.  If he gets away
       with it Like Arteta did it will be bad for the game.

       Behave, it wasnt an elbow by Lascelles it was a forearm and
       certainly not a red card.
       Barrott was fine, we maybe got slight ryb of the green for a few
       fouls but overall he was horrendus.
       Silva is just acting like a toddler

       Going through Silva's comments on the BBC Sport website he said
       that he wasn't saying the Newcastlle player should have been
       sent off so it seemed a bit odd to me to question the
       inconsistency of those two decisions because one seemed suitable
       for VAR intervention and one didn't, based on Silva's own
       comments.
