OSG Prem: Newcastle's Alan Pardew Goes Off

((HT: BPL/Sky Sports))

Manchester City took to the top of the table again today in their win over Newcastle, but not without a little...

Well, okay... a lot... of controversy...

Edin Dzeko got City on the board first, but it looked like Newcastle got an equalizer...
Only the officials didn't see it that way...
Check Tiote's goal was disallowed by an offsides


Which caused Newscastle manager Alan Pardew to explode at the half...


And, eventually, get into it with City manager Manuel Pellgrini where Pardew called him an "effing old" something-or-other


But, after the game, Pellegrini had no issues with Pardew


And Tiote was still with questions...

OSG Prem: ManCity's Defense Is Their Downfall

((HT: BPL))

The HQ would like to know what in the blue hell is going on with City's back line... especially after today's surrendering of a point snatching defeat from the jaws of a sister-kissing at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea...

Game's tied at ones after a beautiful goal by Sergio Aguero, and this happens in the 90th minute...

THE 90TH MINUTE...


Nastasic and Joe Hart played their best version of "I got it, you take it..." and gave Fernando Torres their best make-good on his airmailing of a goal attempt in the first half...

Here's Manuel Pellegrini post-match...

OSG Prem: Manchester Is Not A Happy Town...

((HT: NBCSN/BPL))

It was one of those days in the Premier League...

If you thought you knew what was going to happen, you were proven very, very wrong...

Kinda like this event happening...


Manchester United lost to West Brom for the first time in the history of the League (in its current form) at Old Trafford and caused manager David Moyes a great deal of consternation- not to mention the fan base...

"Disappointing performance, disappointing result. We never really got up to speed," Moyes said postgame. "We had a few chances, but West Brom held their shape and defended well. They always looked a threat on the break, in the first half especially and even more so in the second half. We missed that spark and West Brom deserved it no question. I can't argue with that."

Here's your proof...


And on the other side of town... Man City, at times looking either uninspired, unmotivated, or both... had a 1-0 lead at Villa Park, and then the world seemed to implode around them in their LOSS to Aston Villa...

Manager Manuel Pellegrini was, naturally, disappointed and the loss was hard to take:

"Yes, very hard because I think today we played very well - not the way we played against Cardiff, or against Stoke. I think today we play well. We deserved another goal, but the score says something different. In general, I was very happy with how my team played today.

"Twice we had the advantage in the score, but in five minutes we did two things that threw away all we did in the rest of the game. But football is like that and you must concentrate for 90 minutes."


That... here's your evidence...
