I didnt think it was a sending off.....both gerrard and carrick went for the ball at an angle, gerrard never "went" for carrick.
yes he went in with two feet, but it wasnt a tackle "through" carrick, he blocked him.

It deffo wasnt a penalty either.

Howard Webb just loves giving Man Utd the big decisions.

It would have been waved play on a few years back but that was then and this is now. It don\'t fly in modern football cause they are mostly big girls IMHO.
Webb is a self confessed Man U fan he shouldn\'t be alowd to ref their games. Simple.

I doubt there is one ref in the country that doesnt have a preference to one club or another!

As said in the commentary, the line assistant wasnt flagging or the goal line official.

Get with the times football, that decision could have been made in seconds by a man watching the game off field with access to the cameras, just like cricket. You would think the refs would welcome it, at the very least no manager could be whinging or moaning at them!

Ryan Babel has been in trouble for tweeting this today!

Quality!

I woudnt be a ref for any money, i kind of admire them for what they do! It cant be an easy job, lets imagine you were the ref at a Man U game when the king of dives, Ronaldo was about! You would know he has a reputation for diving, so what you going to do if he goes over! I cant see in a any foul like Sundays one that you can be 100%!

I watched a game recently, cant remember which one and all the commentators were talking about all the grasping/holding/pulling of shirts in the penalty area and saying it shouldnt happen, as if you abide by the law they are penalties! Their view was quite simple, if refs started to give penalties no matter "the amount of shirt grabbing etc" the players would stop doing it, personally i would welcome it. Some of the defenders these days are terrible at it, hands all over the opposition, but they get away with it so keep doing it.

All depends how you get on with Blackpool, should you lose or draw there will be more pressure on you guys for the Derby match :Thumbs-up

I actually think it will be Liverpool 1-1 Everton as its all set up for a draw i reckon :King

Well neither team has really achived anywhere near what they set out for this season. And your missing your top goal scorer too. I bet there is an own goal at some point in the game.
