Richard Keys talked about Newcastle United again.
This time a little different.
It all feels a bit strange, but I notice that I agree with Richard Keys on this occasion.
I suppose he should do it well.
Richard Keys talks about the past weekend, with special mention from Eddie Howe.
Richard Keys write about his personal blog – September 23, 2025:
“I noticed only one real clanger of VAR-that was a stick-on pen for Newcastle in Bournemouth.
“If you didn’t see it – Woltemade would have clearly pulled his shirt through the disc in the box.
“The referee missed it. Var should not have done it.
“Eddie Howe had the right to be furious, but of course politely was calm.
“However, it should have been a pen.”
At that time I could not believe that the penalty was not given.
Then watch the TV retirement that the VAR would have seen, how can he not send the on the field referee to the screen on the side of the field?
I think Richard Keys also makes a good point, even if it is unintended.
Eddie Howe said that he thought a penalty should have been given, but as Richard Keys indicates, it is not his (howhe’s) way to make it a huge problem when Newcastle United is badly done by Matchambegers.
It may feel like this sometimes goes against Eddie Howe and Newcastle United.
The way in which certain other managers continue, take a huge problem of decisions that they don’t like, clearly try to influence match officials in future competitions and let the media do their dirty work. Again, who would like an embarrassing character, such as Mikel Arteta that your club manages?
It is now consecutive Premier League matches where Eddie Howe and his Newcastle United players have seen really bad decisions.
Much worse than the Nick Woltemade Non-Penalty in Bournemouth, when both the Pitch referee and the VAR succeeded in somehow, it was not to decide that it was not a red card for the last man shocking challenge on Harvey Barnes by a Wolves defender. United doesn’t even get a free kick!
Very incredible. It is impossible to imagine that certain other clubs do not get that kind of big decisions in successive matches.
