Didn't happen with the GPC. Referees obviously knuckle under the pressure because they are human beings. We forget that they actually have lives outside of the 90 minutes a week we see, they probably get dogs abuse in their everyday life based on their decisions, especially against big teams with the most loudmouth fans. It's only natural to want to avoid that, whether it's a conscious decision or not.city saint said:i actually think his constant sniping at the referees will backfire as most refs will be pissed off.they meet don't they quite regularly I can imagine them all saying hes got them diving and cheating and slagging most of us off whenever we get anything wrong so fuck Chelsea they get nothing that isn't cast iron

city saint said:ha ha sunday supplement think he"ll appeal,if ever ive seen a just take your punishment then its this,no way will they risk an extra game
Agreed; no chance that'll be overturned. You can't strike an opponent, which Matic theoretically did. Do the same people who think Chelsea should appeal, also think Barton's red card should also be rescinded?City_Sean said:Although the original tackle on him was hurrendous the reaction from Matic was violent conduct, there's no way his ban could be overturned.
