David Moyes is trying his best to gain an advantage from officials ahead of the next Merseyside derby, but only a fool would buy the claims he is selling. [LNB]The Everton [LNB]manager insists referees back Liverpool whenever they meet his side and that his team's 'wholehearted' approach provokes a disproportionately harsh response. [LNB] [LNB]Come on, give us a break: Goodison Park chief Moyes[LNB]But when they go around roughing up their opponents, what does he expect?

That doesn't mean they lack skill, it is just they frequently make sure their opponents know they are there before they demonstrate it. [LNB]With that sort of approach they are going to fall foul of the law more often than other teams and especially sides such as Liverpool, who are less obvious with the physical side of their game. [LNB]So try all you might David to convince referee Alan Wiley to go easy on Everton tonight (Wednesday) but don't expect him to take any notice.
