I thought we would be able to trust Mike Dean on his. Most of the others, no chance.
Great news.

Re: Kompany red card and appeal

I see commonsense has prevailed for once. To be honest, I didn't think it would get rescinded despite it being a ridiculous decision to send him off!

It's not 'for once' though, is it?

Pablo's was overturned in the same fixture two seasons ago. Of course there are people, powerful people, who want to see us fail, but perhaps we should all remember moments such as this when trying to claim the whole World is against us.

Much of it is, but there are many who can see which way the wind is blowing too.

That's true - I'd forgotten about Zab's being rescinded. On the flip side, we've had a fair few retrospective bans handed down in recent years - SWP at Stoke being one of the most ridiculous. I'll add that I think a lot of it depends on the ref involved - some just can't seem to admit they made a mistake but Dean seems to be one of the better ones on that score.

I'm not big into the agenda thing but sometimes things happen that leave you wondering. As you say, it's more down to individuals in positions of authority that have it in for us rather than whole organisations themselves.

Well done City and a big thank you to Alan Hansen..

Indeed fair play for that, most animated i have ever seen him when he was defending Vincent.

Both him and Schmeicel. Weren't having any of it.

Re: Kompany red card and appeal

Great news for Vinnie, however, has common sense prevailed or is this yet another example of the FA being influenced by the media?
For almost the first time, 90% of the media have viewed the red card this weekend as incorrect and hey presto! It's overturned !
Tail still wagging the dog methinks !!

And some people on bluemoon were saying that we shouldn't appeal.
