Fair points. Nothing wrong with different points of view (outside of the Saintsweb thought police of course... )

He's highlighting the proportionality of the punishment, not arguing against the application of a punishment at all. It could be reasonably argued that awarding Middlesbrough a two goal head start in the second leg (for example) would have been a more proportionate punishment.

Maybe @SouthWalesSaints was highlighting the moral inconsistencies rather than making a point about the rules, per se...?

How does that train of thought account for the markedly different sign-off that the club have given to Shea "not Rickie Lambert" Charles today...?

He scored 11 goals per season in the last two seasons he played for us, so not too shabby for a midfielder not known for his attacking prowess* (* Yes, most of those were probably set pieces, and yes, he was 4 - 5 years younger)

Fret ye not... Dragan promised us a team that'll get us excited and up off our seats and I, for one, trust him to deliver on his promise 👍🏻
