Bernado Silva misconduct charge: one game ban, £50k fine

The above doesn't appear to be an accusation of outright racism to me, moreso that the tweet had racial connotations to it. Just dug up the charge against Suarez re the Evra incident and there appears to be a difference:

What they've done is quite intelligent.

They've charged him over use of social media against FA regs (the E3(1) part).
They've also charged him with the aggravated use version (E3(2)).

It is therefore be possible for them to fine him for the first one, but dismiss the second one. I suspect the second one will be strongly contested, but the first may not be.

The extra 12 days presumably is the relatively common extension due to the international break.
 
Would imply Bernardo intending to contest the charge?

Maybe, I had read previously though that he wants to appear in person to the hearing, I guess his international commitments are preventing him from doing that so they've granted the extension.
 
Just another example of the deep state in motion.

Much the same as coverage of groups gathering to protest over government inaction over climate change.

Why ask the deep state to do something about another form of the deep state FFS.

You want someone else to do something about you pretend is important ?
 
I think all he will get is words of advice from the FA. They have to be seen to be doing something regarding this matter.
 
Just so I've got this straight, you 2 geniuses have read that Bernardo requested an extension and have made it part of a conspiracy theory where the FA is delaying in order to ban him for Anfield.
Haha, when you put it like that....but a bit like referees in a close game when free kicks are being awarded late on, it gives them an option to screw us over.
 
"Bernardo Silva has been charged with misconduct for a breach of FA Rule E3 in relation to a social media post on September 22, 2019.

"It is alleged that the Manchester City player's activity breaches FA Rule E3(1) as it was insulting and/or improper and/or brought the game into disrepute."

The FA statement continued: "It is further alleged that the activity constitutes an "aggravated breach", which is defined in FA Rule E3(2), as it included reference, whether expressed or implied, to race and/or colour and/or ethnic origin.

"The midfielder has until 9 October 2019 to provide a response."
Excellent. So not Racism then
 
John Terry was cleared of racism by the British courts but guilty of the same charge by the FA's kangaroo court. Until we get transcripts or even videos of FA "court cases" then it will be accused of unfairness.
Not really a case of unfairness the FA have no more evidence than we do, and that is pretty pathetic, Suarez was charged with using racist language but with no evidence other than a proven liars, he was found guilty of lying to the panel ` i forgot the word they used, something like incomparable evidence ` the FA will get Bernardo, but Kick it out are the ones that have accused Bernardo and he can sue them
 
If we are honest, we all know deep down Bernie is going to miss the dippers game through this. It's just one more little thing the FA can do to help the dippers .
