Everton boss Moyes charged

David Moyes has been charged by the FA due to comments he made after the 2-1 loss to Liverpool on October 21st. Moyes was incensed after Lescott was fouled by Jamie Carragher in the penalty area.

The Everton boss said after the game: "We deserved that penalty if not more and, if the other penalties were more blatant than that, then I am in the wrong game.

"I am seemingly seeing football differently. If the referee does not see that you have got to ask why. Maybe they should not be there."

He added: "It can't just be me being bitter, people asked was the referee biased and I can't comment but we got nothing at all."

Moyes has been charged with two breaches of FA rule E3 in respect of comments he made immediately following the game and also comments he made in a press conference the following week.

The FA charge stated that "it is alleged that the comments made referring to referee Mark Clattenburg on each respective occasion amount to improper conduct as they call into question Mr Clattenburg's integrity and/or imply that Mr Clattenburg was motivated by bias".
