I know I can be pretty immature sometimes but surely it's not only me who can't help but quietly snigger (in the style of Beavis and Butthead) when reading the name 'Arshavin'??

Good job they didn't sign his mate 'Bummphluff', innit

So, Nottingham Forest or Derby County tonight? I'm rooting for Forest, cos it means I don't have to seek out tickets to Derby for the 5th round match against United!

Its really srange Nugget, in the transfer window, you expect clubs to buy ' new ' players, but Spurs bought players, that they sold in the last window, the only player that was new was Palascios. very strange. I was waiting for a certain last minute deal for Berba, but Harry's phone was engaged.

Dear me that's frighteningly like him!

Here we go again, one law for one, and one law for another, I am talking about the Lampard red card, if that was anyone else, it would have stayed. And the other one was Boswinga, who got away with that nasty foul.

What is the point of having officials at the top four clubs, if they are going to get away with the cards that are handed out.

To be fair, Lampards' sending off was a ludicrous decision in the first place. Bosingwa, on the other hand, should have got the book thrown at him.

If the red card was recinded, at least he should have had a yellow, as the intent was there, All officials must have that judgement, that if they deem the offence to be red or yellow, then that is where it stands.

I am a reasonable guy, and even though l support Tottenham, is if a player gets booked, then that is it, it is the Referee decision, and that is final,

What we have to look at here is the broader picture, any other club player, and it would stay, it is just not right.

it's these stupid rules the FA have. Apparently the linesman saw it and didn't flag, no idea why that is, and so as it was seen at the time they can't do anything extra as the ref mentioned it in his report and said it was seen by the linesman.

Personally I think that law should go and if post match the FA can clearly see a mistake has been made they should be able to issue a card and \ or a ban

118 minutes of rubbish then ITV pretty much miss the goal.

Well, my earlier assessment of the Scousers awesome firepower seemed to upset the odd Liverpool supporter,

Everton 1-Liverpool 0, cased proved m'lord.

Toothless would be an apt description.

I don't know what you were watching Gazzae, I saw the whole of the build up and the goal perfectly.

Never mind Scouseland, there's always the Grand National....

yep I got the same thing as you, they went to an add break with 5 mins still to go and then you just knew when they came back I was going to miss a goal.

Also ended up with 4:3 ratio at the end too
