I prefer Tottenham v Arsenal because their seems to much more bitterness towards each other, which makes for a more exciting game.

You're right, I don't like spurs.

Not sure how exciting it is as I'm normally too nervous. It's the one game I don't look forward to.

Maybe because the thought of losing to spurs hurts too much.

Cant believe what i have just witnessed. Everton were robbed by a referee that can only be described as incompetent. If you thought the penalty awarded to Liverpool was dodgy then please answer these questions
How did Caragher stay on the pitch ? his conduct and comments to the referee should have resulted in him being dismissed
How did Kuyp not get sent off for his attenpted flying tackle on Neville ?
How did Clattenberg miss both fouls on Lescott in the penalty area ? This referee makes Graham Poll look like Jack Taylor.
The overall result has left a bad taste in my mouth. C'mon Reds admit it the ref gave you the game.
Before you start i am a complete neutral (Albion supporter),and as far as i am concerned i would not want this referee to take any game my team was involved in
The only derby match i normally get passionate about us Baggies vs Dingles, but i feel desperatly sorry for Everton.

As a neutral, I am disgusted at the performance of ref Mark Clattenburg. Refereeing like this is what isturning me off from football.

How on earth can both of Lescott's penalty claims be turned down? Also, surely Kuyt's flying tackle should have been a straight red?

Its funny really because Rob Styles was suspended after awarding that penalty for Chelsea against Liverpool earlier in the season.

Today, Clattenburg has disgraced football even more than Rob Styles. Will he be suspended? No.

Simply because today he kept Liverpool (ie the "big" club) happy. We all know had these decisions been made against Liverpool or Manchester United, the referee most likely would have been suspended.

Because the FA and pundits will think "its only Everton" nothing will happen. If you remember it was the same referee that somehow didn't notice the ball was a yard over the goal line when Spurs played Man United a few years back.

David Moyes is well within his rights to say exactly what he likes about Mark Clattenburg. If the FA were to fine him it would be hypocritical.

Favouritism from referees is killing football more than anything, even more than ticket prices, too many foreigners, diving etc.

Until it is dealt with more and more people will be disillusioned. We can all except mistakes, but the favouritism shown by referees is not acceptable.

we havent won many league titles over recent years but who is the most successfull british club ?!..yes u got it in one..LIVERPOOL...if this game makes evertons season then it is quite sad !.try compeeting like the rest.
-------------------------
Looked to me like it made Liverpool's season. Celebrating at the end of the game like they'd won the league, just cos they'd beat 9 men in a derby and had cheated the opposition out of the game (definite foul on Big Lezzer and Kuyt should've seen red).
