Dear Stephen
Thank you for contacting The Football Association.
A Regulatory Commission last week considered the charge of Violent Conduct issued against Manchester City’s Emmanuel Adebayor under the fast-track disciplinary procedure following an incident with Robin van Persie during their fixture against Arsenal on the 12th September.
Taking into consideration Mr Adebayor’s acceptance of the charge of violent conduct the Regulatory Commission have ordered that he serve a three match suspension from all football, commencing Thursday 17th September.
A separate charge of Improper Conduct will be considered at a later date.
Kind regards,
The Football Association

The FA has contacted Robin van Persie to remind the player of his responsibility as a professional with regard to his future conduct." What a joke!!!!!!! Why did Adebayor get charged for his celibration,but RVP didn't? He Swore at the city fans but they reacted differently than the Arsenal fans did?

Dear Stephen
Many thanks for contacting The Football Association.
The FA strongly condemns any form of offensive chanting and works closely with clubs, police and football partners such as Kick it Out in tackling this problem. The FA remain committed to making the game family friendly and call upon clubs and match day police to monitor and deal with these incidents accordingly.
Offensive chanting has no place in football. The FA’s policy is to encourage all clubs to work towards ridding the game of the small minority of supporters who try to ruin the experience of watching a game for the vast majority.
With regards to the Manchester City v Arsenal game, we have asked The Greater Manchester Police and the clubs to identify those supporters involved in any violent and aggravating behaviour. The FA would like to see anyone found guilty of such behaviour face action through the legal system and banning orders from football.
Stewards are trained to deal with racist and other incidents and they and the Police do what they can to deal with foul and abusive language by spectators. Football matches do tend to provoke all sorts of comments or chants from the crowd; some of these may go beyond what is considered to be acceptable. Dealing with this on a match day is a difficult task, but it is a criminal offence to shout racist abuse at a football match.
With regards to Robin van Persie’s goal celebration, having reviewed the incident and spoken with Greater Manchester Police and the Match Official, The FA have contacted Robin van Persie to remind the player of his responsibilities as a professional with regards to his future conduct. No further action will be taken.[/color]
WHY?
We do appreciate all of the feedback we receive from supporters. This feedback is collated and used to build a picture of public opinion and is subsequently fed back internally within the organisation. Please rest assured your suggestions will form part of this feedback process.
Thank you again for taking the time to write.
Kind regards,
The Football Association

His celebration against Arsenal was punished by a yellow card i have contacted you before on issues like this I was told if the Ref dealt with it on the day,no further action can be taken,so i dont expect any action will be taken over this? Banana's were also thrown on to the pitch towards Emmanuel Adebayor Also,i dont condone the alleged stamp,but the ref was in a perfect position and decided that,first of all he was not fouled by Van Persie,and he did not commit a foul? Van Persie also stuck 2 fingers up and swore at the home crowd when he scored,but this has not been reported in the press or media,but has been reported to the police who are looking into the complaint You use video evidence when it suits you,to punish players ie Eduardo etc,but not for "goals" or no goal as the case my be Either use video or let the Ref make decisions,i cant see how you can pick and choose when to use video evidence,its all one way,a goal is never given by video or rarely is a player let off if, its on video that he did not foul someone etc
i await the next reply
