Kevin Friend from Leicestershire takes charge of this fixture and makes his first appearance at Goodison this season. His last Everton game was at S****horpe in the FA Cup. His last outing was at Birmingham City against Man City on Wednesday night and his record to date this season is a total of 21 games, 64 yellow and 4 red cards
 

S****horpe gets banned?

edit: yep it does

Yep, I remember a story from years ago that S****horpe Town Council didn't send or receive any inbound emails for half a day after the install of a MailSweeper on their exchange server, it was set to block any email containing obscenity. You can guess what happened.
 
Only reffed two of our matches, we've scored five in both....

Kevin Friend is our friend.
Can we have him every game.
 

Shocking decision for the disallowed goal. I mean it's would have been bad if he'd blown immediately and allowed no advantage, but he blew his whistle as Saha's shot was on route into the goal!!!

However he did apologise, which is something hardly any refs do anymore. I guess it's easier for everyone when we managed to win anyway (and Saha, who was robbed of a goal, managed to score 4!), so thank the lord/buddha/vast expanse of nothing above, that it all worked out.
 

The handball call on Distin that eventually led to them getting their first goal was very harsh too. Friend looked like a nervous wreck in the first half. Thankfully he took a bit more of a back seat in the second and let us strut our stuff.
 
When did he apologise? Good if he did. Nightmare of a decision...

...However, seeing the linesman in the Newcastle Vs Arsenal game...we should be thankful! Arsenal must hate that linesman.
 
I was ready to punch the tv on the highlights when I saw him smiling as he came off the pitch at HT but when Moyes confirmed after the match he'd apologised, I thought fair does.
 
he missed the penalty on felaini when the defender had his arms over his shoulder. clear penalty.
