FA request help from Brentford over bottle allegation

The Football Association have contacted Brentford to ask for their help in verifying Everton manager David Moyes’ claim that a Bees supporter threw a bottle into the away end after last night’s Carling Cup clash at Griffin Park.

The home crowd spilled onto the pitch moments after Phil Jagielka’s penalty miss had knocked the Barclays Premier League side out of the competition.
