|Irish Daily Mirror
IF we take the joy out of the game there is nothing left.
That is why David Moyes being booked for celebrating a 97th-minute leveller is downright embarrassing.
The Everton boss ran on to the pitch - well, jigged in delight - because his team had snatched a point.
You begin to wonder whether the officials actually know what that means.
When did they lose their sense of fun?
When did they lose their love of the game?
When did football become a boring spreadsheet?
When did we get tangled up in silly referee speak?
I'm not interested in the letter of the law - whatever that means. What about the glory of the game?
