I thought Crouch assist Nzonzi for the second goal.

Newcastle fan Poooor England referees these days

I'm a Newcastle fan and I can still say that sending off was ridiculous.

This ref killed the game!

Also why does it say Charlie Adam got the assist and not Crouch?

Absolutely ridiculous, I will be astounded if Poyet doesn't make an appeal and be successful. This league has got too soft, nowadays all you have to do is get knocked over and the referee will assume you've been fouled.

That ref is Arab dung!

he got a red card for that? what happend to epl being the most physical league in the world?

How can EPL allow to have such refereeing ! As football becoming faster and referees becoming slower and literally slower , we need replay technologies . This decisions can be carried out in matter of seconds . They spend more time on arguing and fighting .

WTF he dint even touch the player it was all ball !!! wtf is going on w these dump refs now ?! he should b band from Football ! IDIOT ruined the game wow i cant get over it LOL

The referee giving a red to Brown in this game and Mirallas is shown a yellow for his horendous tackle, just shows how poor the level of refeeres can be. Disgrace!

The FA should drop the ban on Brown nothing wrong on that tackle. The game is become too soft nowdays and the refs are getting away with pathetic decisions. Brown is an old school defender taught and schooled the game in the right way he knows what he is doing. I think the PL should import refs from the far east and even from Africa cuz these English refs are becoming too involved in the politics of the allegiance now they are doing too much favor for their hometown teams.

The ref must had consumed too much rufi

I feel really sorry for Brown and Sunderland the ref was totally rubbish
