       Kavanagh was flawless this afternoon. Brilliant performance and
       a worthy appointment for a £220m match.

       Can’t wait for Newcastle v Sunderland!! Can guarantee that one
       of them will be on a Sunday 4:30 kick off!
       And well done to Kav and team who I thought handled the occasion
       perfectly!

       That narrows down the teams Michael Oliver can referee by one
       for next season with Sunderland going up.
       More Fulham games for him as a consequence!

       Excellent performance from Kavanagh, justifying his appointment
       to the richest game in football.
       He let the game flow, the contact level allowed was at a good
       level. Yellow cards were all nailed on. Nice and clear on the
       announcement too (with the VAR intervention being correct).
       Massive congratulations to the Black Cats who performed
       exceptionally in the last 30 minutes to get the win. I look
       forward to watching them in the prem again, especially those
       Tyne and Wear derbies 🔥.

       I remember the last few being Sat/Sun at midday I think.
       Excellent from the men in black today.

       Outstanding display from imo the best referee in the country
       atm. That is EXACTLY how the game of football should be
       refereed. Excellent!

       No chance, they will be midday kick offs on police orders.  When
       Newcastle played there in the cup recently their fans weren't
       allowed to make their own way to the Stadium of Light, they
       could only attend if they travelled on approved transport
       starting in Newcastle.  My mate lives less than a mile from the
       ground yet had the get the train to Newcastle to get shipped
       straight back again.

       Any thoughts on the tackle on Brereton Diaz that injured him.
       Watson got the ball but I wondered if it was a booking as a bit
       reckless??

       From the stands, looked like a fantastic game from team ref.
       Still stand by my comments on stadium announcements - maybe good
       on telly,‘couldn’t hear a word in the stadium itself. As for my
       team…wow, wow, wow! Still not sure I believe the result!

       Certainly a challenge that wouldn’t have looked out of place
       20/30 years ago! The way the modern game has changed, Hume was
       probably quite fortunate not to receive a booking for a reckless
       challenge. A challenge where players realise you can cleanly win
       the ball but take a bit of the man too. Personally, I have
       nothing wrong with the challenge.

       Outstanding performance from all involved on team ref today.
       Super performance from Mr K van ah.
       Wearing black set the tone.
       Well done to Kav for his announcement to the world as why
       offside was given when Burrows found the net with his shot.
       Wording of the reason on the big screens would help too, i
       assume this was done at the time.
