The Red Card to match his Red Towel? :lol:

Im hoping for a draw in this game, but looks unlikely now as City have a man advantage for almost an hour of football

SWP should have been sent off as well for kicking Delap but the ref either didn't see it or chose to ignore... hopefully the FA give him a ban as well. Great to see Stoke beat the Arabs though, brilliant cross by Etherington and strong header by Beattie.

Another win and clean sheet for United. 1-0 over Everton thanks to a penalty from Ronaldo.

Pretty entertaining derby at Newcastle, don't mind the look of this young Carroll lad they've introduced recently

Despite the to penalty claims that should have gone to the Toffees. just goes to show that ref's still bottle out at OT.

Filthy, disgusting and very Chelsea like tackle by Jose Bosingwa on Benayoun against Liverpool.
That was more of a red card than Fat Franks.

Looks like Bosingwa has found the perfect team to play for as they are just as big a dirty, squealing little pigs as each other.

Which penalty claims were these?

United could have also been given a second penalty.

The penalty United did get was also definitely there.

I haven't seen any of the game yet but I've heard Fat Frank's red card was a terrible decision. That really ****** them up even though Liverpool sound like they played better anyway.

Bosingwa's though... geez. He didn't get punished so surely they will look into that as well as SWP's kick.

Also, another dive by Gerrard? :lol:

Surely that got a card?

Chelsea was playing for a draw. A bad refereeing decision made them pay. Liverpool were the better team on the day... but didnt deserve 2-0

Nope, no card ... Obviously the touch judge can't see past a metre!! :shock:

Chelsea weren't playing for a draw, early in the second half whilst on 10 men they made a double sub bringing on Drogba and Deco ... Their plan would have been to take the sting out of the game and then go on the attack, the stupid card on Lampard would have interfered with that.

You wouldnt have even known Lampard was on the park but for his Red Card, but as always with a player of that quality they only have to bob up once to win a game ... The better team won IMHO, but we all know that doesn't always happen in football so Chelsea will still have every right to feel agrieved about Frank the Wanks incorrect exile.

Well according to press reports out of the UK - Bosingwa has escaped from any punishment due to the fact the ref didn't see it and the linesman didn't take any action at the time! :shock: Bosingwa has apologised for his actions which even his Manager claimed deserved a red card.

Pretty poor form when no action after the event can be taken in cases like this!

How many times have you felt like doing that to a soccer player shielding the ball??

I applaud the move.

Get on with the game, douchebag.

Considering they can reverse red cards you'd think they could hand out some sort of punishment for what happened.

If he was given a yellow then no further action could be taken but when the ref doesn't hand out any punishment then the FA can step in. Terrible decision.

silicone that was a pretty stupid post as well mate, clearly no idea about the game.
