Season › 2011-12 › News Atkinson was the wrong choice Michael Kenrick , 1 October, 48comments | Jump to most recent Moyes, visibly disappointed, said: "I just thought the sending off ruined the game. You get lots of questions from people asking about derbies, tackles and sendings off but that wasn't even a bad tackle. "I don't even know if we can appeal. I would have been disappointed had it been a free-kick and if he had got a yellow card I think people would have asked 'what's that for?'" Moyes revealed he had not spoken to referee Atkinson, who felt the full fury of Everton's fans inside Goodison Park at half-time and at the final whistle, adding: "We've not had that referee since myself and Steve Round were fined one year ago against Manchester United." On his side's showing, Moyes said: "The team did everything they could and I'm disappointed. It wasn't the referee that lost us that game because we had a couple of defensive lapses but it would have been hard at 11 against 11."
