That's equally ridiculous.
Was it violent conduct or not? If it was, red card, 3 match suspension. If it wasn't, no red card, no suspension.
You can't get a red card for violent conduct and a one match ban can you?
Stupid rules, stupid football.
I still don't understand why it is a four match ban. Is this because he has been booked so many times as well?
If it is for having a red card that was subsequently rescinded then that is clearly stupid and the rules are clearly stupid.
He's clearly a bit simple -
if he thinks losing a Wembley final (wow, what fun) and scraping a barely deserved, illegally obtained, victory over a third tier team outweighs the detritus and general hilarity that they have served up (that is going to cause them untold misery over the next few years, if they still exist in a few years) then there can be no doubt about it.
A bit harsh IMO. The kind of thing that Paul Scholes would get a yellow card and "isn't he combative little terrier" kind of comment for. Should have been a yellow each or a red each.
Either way, MS has been petulant and dirty all season. I like to see it sometimes but hopefully this will help his development. You'd like to think we won't miss him in the upcoming home games too much but Gillingham away could be tricky; their home defence is superb.
So the consensus is that no one cares but they are rapidly eroding any good will we may have had towards them.
That pretty much sums up my views. I'd be about as interested in Aldershot as a "local rival" as Bournemouth.
Dear Wiltsy, I hate to disappoint anyone. Sorry. But is Dune right...:
It's probably not becoming of me to be in your gang if you are a kid. I've been told.
Were you hiding in my house answering my phone then? You should leave a note next time please. Leave it on the piano or the desk by the dining room window. Ta.
I said he was world class years ago.
I am proved right yet again. I honestly can't believe the government hasn't called me to ask for advice about football and stuff.
