    Evra's was a penalty, Wellbeck's wasn't, clearly stuck his foot into the path of Ivanovic while Ivanovic was taking his foot away. Not that I'm complaining though, a draw was a great result for us, for once, Webb helped out United which actually pleased Spurs fans! :D

    Ferguson is actually complaining that Darren Cann is happy to give a penalty to ABU. Let me repeat this stat once again...

    Four penalties in two games

    ...then ask why no journalist is repeating it, instead of happily publishing the latest crap he comes out with?

    When will the FA stop murmuring about cheating being bad and actually do something about it? Never has an organisation's acronym been more appropriate. I think in future I shall call them "sweet". Mind you, perhaps its the PL that needs to sort this out, or UEFA or ... someone! We already seem to be at the stage where winning penalties by diving seems to be a legitimate tactic if you get away with it, but there seems insufficient punishment for those who do it.

    Penaltys like Red Cards used to be a rarity, but TV loves them so we have more.

    Excuse my cynicism.

    Welbeck should be given a ban, just as Johnson should.
    They're cheating to get points out of games.

    Help the refs out and punish those trying to gain an advantage through deception.

    O.K. They got a bit lucky with one of the penalty decisions. But, you have to admire the way they never admit defeat. There aren't' many teams that come back from 3-0 down at Stamford Bridge, luck or no luck. It's that kind of attitude, that refusal to "know when you're beaten" that makes champions.

    Club accounts show that £28m was spent as a result of firing manager Carlo Ancelotti and hiring Andre Villas-Boas. Football finance analyst Andy Green has calculated that they have spent £64m in the last four years on managerial changes.

    Fulham's junior club sure do know how to waste money don't they <doh>

    If they hadn't have wasted all of that cash on managers, then they could nearly have brought in another Torres and another Luiz.
    Maybe it wasn't a total waste then, eh?

    Roman pays another visit to watch Villas-Boas leading a training session. May as well be the jangling keys on the lock of a condemned man's cell.

    I see Fabio's found a new job already!

    Perhaps this also explains his support for John Terry <whistle>
