Mate you ain't got a clue if you think the pen was a dive. I agree it wasn't a penalty, but it equally wasn't a dive. He rounded the keeper, and lost his balance (it happens all the time). And to add to that, Ronaldo didn't appeal for a penalty at all (bet you didn't pick up on that), it was Rooney and Saha that did.

If all those links that Ste fc posted were dives then ronaldos penalty + free kick was one of the most blatant dives ever.

ronaldo's pen + free kick


first one no contact, similar to gerrard v sheffield united, only he could have easily stayed up


free kick did have contact, but he was already going down, and intentionally found the leg

Norwich have been drawn away to Tamworth in the FA Cup.

What a draw we've got!!! Arsenal at home. Repeat of the 2001 fa cup final. We should win because we have home advantage, and we just don't lose at home.

Add to that Arsenal don't win away.

We've got a tricky home tie with dirty Blackburn.

Do we seriously need an Fa cup thread isn't it worth just merging it with this one?

 

[Kev]

No I'm not merging it.

 

[evertonfan]

But the FA cup counts as English Football surely?

 

[Kev]

Yes but the FA cup generates a lot of posts, enough to have a seperate thread last year so I dont see why it should be different this year.

This is not up for debate, just use it or have your posts deleted.

Fantastic 2-0 victory for Everton over those over-rated bunch of Icelandics today; I love it when London teams get beat.

Little Leon and James Vaughan bagging the goals. Everton have some very rich young talent.

Look, I know you're trying to make a contribution, but all you're doing is copying what everyone says! Add something new to the topic instead of just jumpling up what others have said and passing it off as your own views!

Rant over.

i was just asking if that was the only game played today in the premiership
