He said that it was for time wasting. Then shouldn't Bellamy have been booked for his celebration on sunday if that was "excessive".

Which leads me to believe that Ade was booked for the celebration not for time wasting.

Manchester City look set to be hit with a second charge of improper conduct by one of their strikers following Craig Bellamy's clash with a pitch invader.
 
"In relation to Craig Bellamy the match referee has confirmed that he would not have sent the player off had he seen the incident with the fan at the time," said the FA statement.

Craig Bellamy and Gary Neville will not face improper conduct charges from the Football Association over their behaviour in Sunday's Manchester derby.

Believe what you like the refs report said it was for time wasting!!!!
 
Time-wasting. Right. How much time does Crappenturd allow players during matches he refs before he wags a finger? How many players has Clapperboard actually booked in his PL career for time-wasting goal celebrations? Enquiring minds would like to know. How long was Ade's celebration? At what point (30 seconds, 45 seconds, 55 seconds...) did Battenhatch decide it was a case of time-wasting?

The whole world thought it was because Ade was guilty of "provocative, derisory, or inflammatory" behaviour - but no, it was all about the clock.

I think we need to get Daniel Taylor and Teh Grauniad to investigate.

"Sir Alex Ferguson likes to boast that his Manchester United team score more late goals than any other side in the world. Others argue that they get a bit of extra help from referees. It has now emerged that the Premier League champions do, as suspected, benefit from an imbalance in the amount of stoppage time that is added to their matches."

It can't be time wasting - he was back in his own half within about 3 seconds of scoring.
 
It's been changed to time wasting so he can be banned for a provocative celebration, thus not being charged for the same offence twice.
