Re: Rodgers' handling of the biting incident - I would argue that Jol did even worse in the Defoe case:

"He was nibbling his arm - there will be no mark. Ask Mascherano if he has got a mark," said Jol.

"It is part of the game. They kicked him three times from behind in 10 minutes and he wanted to show his frustration in a nice, comical way."

Part of the game? Nice and comical? Well done Martin! :ross:

Why Jol was a legend. Talked humour of a long ban probably! Wonder how much this will influence the FA

Oh don't get me wrong, loved Jol (that bit included). But he was in the fortunate position that he could say pretty much whatever he wanted since Defoe was already yellow carded for the bite/nibble. No retrospective action could have been taken by the footy authorities. So I don't think the Defoe incident could/should be much of an influence for the FA this time around, as it was never reviewed post-game.
 
Taking note of the above.

No punishment was used for Nasri's over the ball tackle on Walker. Easily worthy of a red.

The referee clearly couldn't see it.
 
He's carrying Liverpool this season. How do they replace him? Maybe Rodgers' amazing system will do the trick.
 
Arsenal have decided to appeal Girouds red card from the weekend.

I actually hope they succeed - I think, Arsenal are a lot better with Walcott upfront than Giroud
 
Mark Clattenburg to referee Chelsea v Swansea (Sun) - his 1st Blues game since being cleared of using racist language towards Mikel.
 
Atkinson to take charge of Wigan - Spurs

One of the refs, I despise the most - total homer ref, when he gets the big clubs at home

At least this would imply that he wont get Chelsea - Spurs, which I was fearing

That'll be Webb, though it has been a while since we've been Foyed as well.
 
It has been found that the emir of Qatar has deposited €1.5 billion in an anonymous Swiss account

This was done days prior to the decision to host the cup in Qatar

Wouldn't be surprising.
