Also, Michael Appleton has been fired as Blackburn manager. If he takes a job before the end of the season, it will be the fourth team he's managed this season (Portsmouth, Blackpool and Blackburn).

Anyone see Callum McManaman's tackle on that Newcastle player? If not, here it is:
The FA decided to take no additional action. Why? Here's their official explanation:
The FA can confirm that no action can be taken against Wigan Athletic's Callum McManaman retrospectively following his side's game against Newcastle United. Following consultation with the game's stakeholders (the Premier League, the Football League, the Professional Footballers' Association, the League Managers' Association, Professional Game Match Officials Limited and the National Game) in the summer, it was agreed that retrospective action should only be taken in respect of incidents which have not been seen by the match officials.
So basically, because one official saw the play, no additional punishment will be meted out, even though it could be a career-ending injury.
Damn. This is like the reverse Sheriff Goodell.
EDITED to remove incorrect information.

He wasn't given a red. It wasn't even called a foul.

This is not football, but racism and clear of all

Jozy had 3 goals in 9 minutes this weekend (2 were PKs & it was a 6-0 drubbing). 21 goals in 29 league games, 28 goals in 36 games total. Still pretty impressive
