They're completely different though.
Not withstanding the contact one DCL’s standing leg that wasn’t obvious prior to the clip above, I thought they were both a tangle of legs where one player was more in control of the ball than the other.
DCL yesterday until NUFC player clattered him
Gomes in other one until NUFC player clatters him.
How do you see them?

have you seen ex referee mark halsey coming out and saying that he thinks refs will end up in court in the future. due to how rife corruption is in the premier league which tells refs to give certain amount of fouls etc and that the FA tell them to look after certain clubs ie big 6 or whatever
The guess the main difference is that in one situation the defender is attempting to kick the ball and the attacker gets in the way, and in the other the attacker is trying to kick the ball and the defender gets in the way. If Pawson felt Wilson was fouled, you'd have to think he sees some logic in Calvert-Lewin having fouled Burn.
You have to consider that Wilson did to some extent get the ball in that case though (I didn't think it was a penalty, he absolutely engineered that), whereas Burn was nowhere near it, didn't even attempt to get it. He caused the tangle of legs and brought Calvert-Lewin down. I think it's a penalty (maybe it's the Everton bias), but it's not really comparable to the other one.
Burn blocked him without playing the ball.

If Premier League Productions can manipulate a result they will. It's clear its in the interest of Premier League to have Newcastle as well as other obvious clubs in and around Europe places for long as possible.

No attempt to win the ball by the defender who fouls the attacker in the box. A penalty all day long.

The thing that strikes me is, unless they have different instantaneous camera views, they decided within 2 seconds, before you could make sense of it, that it most definitely wasnt a penalty. They were also so made up in their mind and in their determination to confirm that that they didnt take a few seconds to sit back, review it all, even examine whether Burns throwing DCL to the ground was too much. Instant decision, no attempt to consider and unbiasedly look at it for even just 10 seconds.

Ha ha, of course. That lemon Dermot Gallagher was saying the same crap on Sky Sports, whilst everyone in the studio with him (including that kopite Stephen Warnock) all said it was a stonewall penny.

this is the problem is when they make a mistake they all band together and stick up for each other rather than admit the mistake

Referees union. They'll argue black is white if it gets their colleagues off the hook. And then wonder why the average football fan has no faith in PGMOL or VAR.

totally this, yeah I don't expect them to hang each other out to dry but admitting a mistake would help bridge the gap with the fans, instead it just widens it and leaves it open to them protecting the top 6
