Adebayor Didn't Use Van Persie's Head As A Bootscraper

[johnny crossan]

when you look at the pictures ade is looking the other way when he connects with rvp
so how can it be on purpose .

Mike Wedderburn agrees with us too.

The papers are having a field day this morning. double page spreads....why hughes shouldnt have bought him, the empire is crumbling, should get 2*4 match bans etc

what a load of fucking bollocks.

Fuck off Red tops

I reckon he'll get a 3-4 match ban. As for the celebration - a fine only. If they ban him for his celebration we should cite RVP for antagonising our fans and get him banned aswell.

Not sure how they can determine it was on purpose, he is looking the other way and is unbalanced. You could not prove intent in any court so why the FA think they know best is beyond me.

This has been my point since it happened. I think all this talk, even by us, of a lengthy ban is just adding more fuel to the fire and serves to force the FA's hand. The FA can't ban him for his celebration without doing exactly the same to van Persie and to ban him for a stamp when there is reasonable doubt that that's what it was, sets a dangerous precedent.
