Coming to Maradona's defence 5:14pm on 03 Nov 2008 Although I don't agree with the action of delibrately handling the ball, the fact remains that Maradona was a player to be admired. As Tim pointed out, he played in an era when protection for skillful players was considered a joke.

The key point you make about England taking the higher moral ground is an interesting one. In theory I agree with taking the higher moral ground however it is impossible to implement in practise. Money in the game has put this arguement to bed and money & morals never mix well.

The game is in need of video technology for controversial goal decisions. Only yesterday I watched Derby get robbed by 2 referee decisions not to award a goal. It would have taken all of 30 seconds for a 4th offical to confirm that both attempts were valid goals.
Time for Everton to deliver 12:15pm on 26 Sep 2008 £15m for Fellaini and £20m for Keane, how can you make judgements on these players after less than 10 competitive games played between the 2 of them.

Liverpool and/or Everton will come out of the derby with more problems. It is a must win game for both in order to shape their season. A draw will leave both of them with question marks raised.

I'm predicting a close battle with Liverpool to edge it and don't be surprised if Keane scores/assists for the goal then Mr Mcnulty can eat a large portiion of humble pie again.
