Re Shelvey...the maths doesn't make sense.

You win a prize, your better at maths than me!

[Ricky]

But as 8+8 = 16 you'd carry the 1 over onto the 3+5 so it could be 96. Clutching at straws I know.

[JonnyBRFC]

I dont really know what to think of this:

Shelvey was sent off 38:58. 3+5 = 9, 8+8 = 6. 96.

Gerrard scores, 45:51. 4+5 = 9. 5+1 =6. 96.

Rafael scores, 51:45. 5+4 = 9. 1+5 = 6. 96.

RVP scores, 80:16. 8+1 = 9. 0+6 = 6. 96.

Is it not -

Shelvey was sent off 38 + 58 = 96.

Gerrard scores, 45 + 51= 96.

Rafael scores, 51 + 45 = 96.

RVP scores, 80 + 16 = 96.

All adds up to me, not sure if the timings are correct though.

Wouldn't it be much more convincing if the score was 9-6?

Well its all good until you check out the times (on bbc) and see that they're all wrong!! None of those times add up to 96!

The Premier League seems a world away these days but just watching the Sunderland-Newcastle game. Thumping encounter with Ba sent off in the first half - would never have gone in a non-derby match mind - but I can't help but wonder why Le Tissier, co-commentating, is so biased towards Sunderland. Is in the red and white stripes he likes?

[gumboots]

It was tiote!

[Stuart]

It was tiote!

Bah!

Junior scored for QPR.

He's not half as biased as Niall Quinn is when he's commentating on Citeh games.

Gary Neville is best of them, he actually knows what he's talking about.

Nelsen header just over.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

To think Nelson couldn't play for us, when he's still doing a job for a PL team.....just reinforces what the lunies & Coco have done to us!

[Tom]

Nelsen header just over.

And was badly at fault for the Everton goal, terrible defending all round

Hoilett looks bulky, great run for the goal but very lucky

Think Distin was Zamora´s man. Junior was very dangerous few times. He showed his pace and ball handling skills and Sparky must be wondering why did SWP start so far ahead of Junior. QPR should have nailed the match after Pienaar was sent off. Sparky may be given more time but he won´t be there for long.

Disgusting chants from the Sunderland fans - http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/oneill-condemns-taylor-chants-174450070.html

[ABBEY]

I noticed 2 golf or pool balls thrown at a corner from Sunderland fans as well .

Come on, can't be any worse than 'Kean Out!' surely?

[DE.]

Obviously "Kean Out" is the most heinous chant of all time Toppers, the press made that perfectly clear. Goes without saying I suppose.

[thenodrog]

All credit to Stoke's Wilkinson yesterday. Gardner went in like a 10 tonne truck and if Wilkinson had screamed and gone to ground as has now become normal then Gardner would have been sent off without a doubt. Pullis deservedly drew attention to it on MoTD but unfortunately for football I've a feeling most managers would have privately given him a bollocking.

Suarez just had a last minute of injury time winner incorrectly ruled out for offside.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.

[DeadlyDirk]

Was it definitely for offside? Looked like Coates was climbing all over the Everton defender to me. Correct decision even if it was for the wrong reason.

[DE.]

If it was for a foul, surely the linesman would have flagged a lot earlier? Looks to me like he's lost his nerve under appeal from Everton players and flagged.

[DeadlyDirk]

Maybe, not sure if the referee gave it or the linesman to be honest. They might have been prepared to let it go until they saw Suarez was going to benefit from it

[Stuart]

That's what the linesman indicated with his flag.

After his arrogant faux-dive in front of the Everton dugout - having run half the field pushing away his team mates to allow him to do so - he deserves the bad karma that came his way.

Keaning Kean

[Tom]

Wrong decision for the offside but the right outcome as it was a foul

Suarez also could have been off for two bookings
