Is that the same Clattenburg who was stood down for 8 months after he sent an email that could be interpreted as a threat to a business partners family?

It's impossible to say whether there was contact between Ivanovic and Young.
There was definite contact between Evans and Torres. I haven't seen it, but from what I've read Torres's sock was ripped where Evans studs hit him.

I know LFC love their stats...shame about the facts
The whole club seems to have some kind of mental illness over the last few years. They just don't see anything for what it is anymore. It's okay for Suarez to be a racist, he doesn't dive and should get more penalties etc. They're not going to win the league, but only because the other clubs outspend them
Now Everton play like Stoke and just hoofed long balls up against them, because we're not as good as them.
More possession, more passes, higher passing accuracy and fewer long balls. Finished above them last season and have clear daylight this season. It seems Liverpool think they are Barcelona now because they've hired Rodgers and signed Joe Allen (Who is anonymous). I think it would be hard for anyone to argue that Liverpool play better football than Everton at the moment. Some of the moves Everton are pulling off between the likes of Baines, Pienaar, Jelavic, Mirallas and Osman are fantastic and we've out passed every team we've played this season, including Manchester United and Liverpool themselves. If anything it should be Everton making the Stoke comparison of Liverpool, given they injured two Everton players with their thuggery during the game.

I'm aware of Clattenburg's history, however I think you have missed my point. With the fallout from the racism row, I said that Clattenburg would be stupid to say anything remotely racist. Just because he sent the above email (which of course is idiotic in itself), doesn't necessary mean he has racial tendencies.
I understand that you are obviously wearing your Chelsea specs and want the referee to be punished by the full extent of the law, but let's wait until the facts come out first before stringing him up. It all rests on his officials, no-one else.

I really do not understand why he has said that. I'm a Liverpool fan and even I can see that Everton didn't use long ball and outplayed us on the ground.

You said that he wouldn't be stupid enough to make a racial comment after the JT/Suarez incidents. Which means that you're the one who is judging the incident before any facts are being offered.
I am sitting back and waiting for a decent picture to emerge before making any judgements. I was just pointing out that Clattenburg has displayed massive stupidity before by possibly making a veiled threat by email.

Well, I actually said "I don't *think* he would be stupid enough Chief, but if that's been misconstrued into thinking that I'm judging the incident, well I'm not one to jump into the deep end and speculate on what happened so apologies if it has come across that way.

And there is no denying his stupidity in the past. Like I've said before, if he has said what he has been accused of, then he will need to deal with the consequences. Good to hear that you are halting on any judgements. As a supporter of the team that made the complaint, I would have assumed that you would have already been his judge, jury and executioner.

People I've spoken to, forums that I've been on, people on social media sites. I'm going off what I have seen. If you have not seen any of this, then fair enough.
