Scouser Derby

[The Good Sir]

3-3. Both teams getting a couple players sent off, and another few off injured. Help us in the league and the cup.

No slightly different as the derby was last weekend. I'm sure there have been quirks in the past where a mid week sending off has affected the next round of fixtures as opposed to the next game. For example a player must be given time to appeal?

Current FA rules allow a ban to be overturned with a successful appeal for wrongful dismissal. The onus is on the player to prove his case and the ban can be extended if the FA deems the appeal to be frivolous. As such, most clubs will not appeal unless they are certain that they have a good case. Appeals must be made within a day or two of the match, and a decision will always be reached prior to the club's next scheduled match. In the case of a red card that was shown after two yellow cards, the player is dismissed and receives a one-match ban without the right to appeal, excluding mistaken identity.

Us as well even with a draw. That, is why I want the draw. Although I would be happy if they won then lost to us.

I'm hoping for injuries or suspensions to any or all of the following:

The Bosnian striker
Fellani
Heitinga
Distin
Baines

If only one gets injured, then the striker. A draw is then likely

In fairness, I think that the North East derby atmosphere has outstripped ours for years now.

We haven't picked up 3 points there since 1999 though.

Or a few injuries, Jelavic and Drenthe would be nice and Jagielka.

Interestingly, most of the Everton talk, up here, is focussed on Sunderland, rather than Tuesday night.

You got anyone who would be suspended for our game with a yellow card in the derby?
