Villains

This is starting to get worrying! Have our referees gone soft? For the second week in a row there were no red cards in the ten league matches, something which probably hasn't been seen since Ug the Ugly invented the round ball back in the Ice Age! Ten players did pick up their fifth bookings of the season though and can therefore have a couple more days' rest before everything begins again in January. The list includes Toquero (Athletic), Juanito and Ujfalusi (Atlético), Iván Alonso (Espanyol), Jesús Gámez (Málaga), Nunes (Mallorca), Josetxo (Osasuna), Morris (Racing), Rivera (Sporting) and Diego Costa (Valladolid). Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all! (22.12.09)
