Simon Davey - his manager at the time - accused D'Urso of endangering the player's life, and Barnsley were not alone in criticising the FA for not punishing Morgan [Chris Morgan, Sheffiled United] further.
A group of 15 MPs even protested after the FA decided there was not enough proof that Morgan's actions were deliberate to justify them intervening, as they have in several high-profile cases where a player had already received a yellow card.
'It's just very hypocritical,' said Hume. 'The FA go against their own word so many times.
'Within the same week Didier Drogba was booked for throwing a coin back into the crowd and that was put in the match report yet he was given a three-match ban.
'And then the whole Adebayor thing has just gone on. He was booked for the celebration and then given an extra suspended ban and fine. There you go again.
'It needs to be realised that you don't have to be in the Champions League or the top of the Premier League to have cases like this looked at properly. It should start from the bottom up, and I don't think it does at the moment.'
