Aguero banned for three games (updated)

[Tricky Dickys Right Foot Shot]

equal rights they say...

I agree with this, they need to be more consistent, but there's a possibility the ref would have put in his report that he saw it and deemed it not a foul at the time. Once the ref states he saw the incident the FA can't do fuck all.

Im not arguing that Kun didn't swing his arm/elbow.

Im arguing about the line that the ref didn't see it.....that is bullshit....if the ref tells the truth...ie he did see it then the ban doesn't happen....but the use of the "escape clause - i didn't see it" calls his capability into question

so whether Kun swings his elbow or not this thread would exist......the responses on it would have been very different and most likely very simple.,..that it was stupid thing to do but luckily he got away with it (cause the ref DID see it - which means the FA can do fuck all about it)

If he didn't swing at him there would be no FA charge and hence, this thread wouldn't exist. I agree Mariner must have seen it though

If it's so fair and above board why is it that City players are the ones who get charged by the FA Disciplinary Committee? It may have happened, but I can not recall it, that a Utd player got an FA retrospective charge.

The process is bent. Aguero's challenge was far from the worst in the world seeing as he didn't touch Reid and it was Reid who clattered into him.

Remember the Rooney elbow against Wigan, not a whiff of a word with him, the process is bent and don't get me started with Costa.......

Fellini last season missed West Ham.

Lies! united players never get banned, because the FA and, Niall Quinn, and, and, and Howard Webb

How dare they have the winners of the FA Charity shield as their banner? What next? The winners of the FA Cup? Makes me sick

Please don't use logic in the thread, you rag

I'm not surprised, they've got form for doing City players after the fact.
Bog brush head does this every week and never gets punished.
Wouldn't mind if it was even for all teams, but we've already seen with the sterling penalty that the fa haven't got a clue.. Then again maybe they know exactly what they are doing.
Fa cunts.

Not sure what your point is.

I responded to a poster who claimed my post was bollox because I said there was only one person to blame (and I maintain that)

I also maintain that if Kun had not swung his elbow, this particular thread wouldn't exist

If you feel either of my points are wrong, then fine

A lot of people including myself deemed it careless not dangerous play so a yellow not a red. The referee was poor because of his close proximity to the action he should have been able to deal with it on the spot in which case there was about a 50-50 chance of a red or yellow. How critical should we be of Kun I'm not sure. Very easy to say that he should not have swung out but if that was reflexive and protective rather than intentionally to cause damage I would go easy on him. The fact is the media witch hunt that ensued would not have been anywhere as intense if a Rag player was involved and thus the panel would be in a position of objectivity rather than meerly executioner. So while your post is not bollox it is somewhat unfair in its dismissive condemnation of Aguero

I like you.

its united have to win the premier league and they will use every trick in the book and the media are right behind them stinks stinks stinks
you just know what going to happen in the derby they are going to get a pen for holding and even a city play will get sent off

yes manchester city are 3 players better than united and on a level playing field we could beat them with 10 men but its not a level playing field and we just knew when jose took over at united they will use every dirty tick to win its the jose way. they have got into us already with the push for aguero to get a ban sky/bbc did a right job on us with it and ok its daft of aguero but would the media be all over it if it was Fellaini i dont think so that **** can do what he likes

Fairness is all anyone wants and should expect. Sky immediately ran with wanting him banned for the Derby and the spineless cunts at the FA with the help of Marriner are happy to oblige.
