League position: 12th Unused substitutes: Iain Turner, Gary Naysmith, Simon Davies and Victor Anichebe The FA Premier League's Dubious Goals Committee ruled on the following: - Everton’s goal against Wigan Athletic on 31st January was in fact an own goal (David Thompson) and has therefore not been credited to Leon Osman.
