CHARLTON vs FULHAM - Addicks denied home win

Wednesday 27th December 2006

The free kick that led to Fulham’s equaliser in the 93rd minute should not have been awarded. If anything it should have gone to Charlton. The linesman admitted he gave the free kick for handball against Djimi Traore, but if anyone did handle it was Fulham’s Tomasz Radzinski.

The panel adjudges that the free kick should not have been given to Fulham and the resulting goal is therefore invalid. The Right Result was a 2-1 win to Charlton.

Ramage’s Own Goal (Bolton vs Newcastle 26/12/2006)

Peter Ramage was pushed by Bolton’s Kevin Nolan during the incident in which he scored a comedy own goal. Whether the push made a difference is hard to tell but strangely, Ramage decided to blame his keeper rather than appealing to the referee!

The panel adjudges Ramage was pushed and so his own goal should have been disallowed. The Right Result is therefore a 1-1 draw.

Bellamy pulled by Savage (Blackburn vs Liverpool 26/12/2006)

Craig Bellamy was pulled by Robbie Savage in the area with the score at 0-0.

The panel adjudges that Liverpool should have been awarded a penalty for the pull on Bellamy and The Right Result is a 1-1 draw.

Two clangers from Clattenburg (Sheffield Utd vs Man City 26/12/2006)

The officials in this game contrived to miss two handballs in the area. Firstly when Micah Richards saved a Claude Davis shot in the first half, and secondly when Rob Kozluk punched a Micah Richards header off the line in the second.

The panel adjudges that penalties for handball should have been given in each incident and The Right Result is therefore Sheffield United 1 Manchester City 2.

Johnson denied again (Everton vs Middlesbrough 26/12/2006)

Andy Johnson again showed his honest streak in not going down when he was clearly pulled by Andrew Taylor in the box during the Toffees draw with Boro.

The panel adjudges that Everton should have been awarded a penalty for the pull on Johnson and The Right Result was 1-0 to Everton.

Chelsea lucky to draw against Reading (Chelsea vs Reading 26/12/2006)

Whilst there was a call for offside against Leroy Lita for the first goal in this game, video replays show him to have been level. Drogba, however, was clearly offside in the build-up to Chelsea’s second goal.

The panel adjudges Drogba was offside and his second goal should have been disallowed making The Right Result a 2-1 away win for Reading.

Fulham robbed of victory (Fulham vs West Ham 23/12/2006)

Referee Chris Foy gave a free kick outsde the area for a foul on Tomasz Radzinskli in the first half, but the infringement started inside the area so should have been a penalty.

The panel adjudges the right result is Fulham 1 West Ham 0.

Martins goal adjudged offside. (Newcastle vs Tottenham 23/12/2006)

The panel adjudges the right result to have been Wigan 1 Chelsea 4.
