He is getting 3 games without a doubt imo and the contesting is just our way of telling them they are cunts with us no doubt using the opportunity to ask for an explanation as to why they are able to overlook several instances of elbows being used whilst bringing cases against certain players and clubs so readily, especially on the back of what was a trial by media. I would also hope they ask that Marriner is kept away from our games for a while the blind/dishonest fucker!
Deserves to be banned but how many have the Rags got away with? Fucking elbow central over there.
I'd love us to get away with it on a technical and he bangs a last min winner in.
so what is the rule ??
i always through when you put in appeal they can increase the punishment
(With his elbow and the ref misses it)
There's probably still more posts about it on redcafe.125 pages! Good Lord, we've seen our arses over this. Christ, if he gets a ban this could end up bigger than the Isco thread....
What are you on about man. It is a legitimate appeal which may not be successful but if it is, it does not follow that some kind of crusade to stop City winning the league will ensue.I think Aguero will still get banned, and the Prem will just fuck us over to the nth degree in the Derby to punish us for trying to actually fight their pre-prescribed plan for the whole occasion.
We should have just quietly accepted it and then battered them in the game when they'd let their guard down thinking it was won.
I think unless we've got the evidence to bring down the entire Prem unless they play ball with us, then we have to realise that they don't want us to win the league and that we have to be more clever about picking our battles.
They'll want revenge if they have to overturn this and they'll take it on in the game which is much worse.
