Thought I'd bump the thread due to the Vieira charge.

Took 1 day?

Wio's elbow to Tevez took what 5 days?

Discuss...


Nothing to discuss.

We haven't got Garry Cook as Cheif exec of the FA....

The elbow was on Hulls Fagan IIRC???
 
Technically they've met the same criteria in both cases, Wio commited his violent conduct on a Saturday, the FA gave him until 6pm on the Wednesday to appeal, that's 3 working days. Vieira committed his offence on the Tuesday, they've given him until 6pm Friday to appeal, that's 3 working days. Unfortunately the FA, despite there being regular fixtures on Sundays, don't count Sunday as a working day and, as such, this day doesn't count in the appeal/banning process.

It was extremely annoying that Wio played the system to allow him to take part in the Carling Cup semi, but under FA rules he was allowed to do so. They've punished him for his frivolous appeal which is all well and good, but it doesn't help us.

But did they not take off the extra game ban they gave him in the first place for contesting the original charge?

So it went from 3 to 4 and then back to 3 again.

But then again we don't have David Gill to manipulate anything.
