Kompany red card and appeal SUCCESSFUL

[Gabriel]

Happy as I am to see this rescinded, I sense that he'll need to tread carefully in the coming weeks, as the spotlight will be firmly on him. It's all rather reminiscent of the furore surrounding Nigel de Jong and his tackling style, back in 2010.

Justice for the Belgian one :)..

Happy, Happy, Happy...

Great stuff well done FA and Dean.

In your face Brazil. Ragboy and Cross to name but 3. The way they were going after Vinney was disgusting.

He'll be fine. This decision is a huge vindication for him imo

If dean admits he made a mistake it doesn't go to the appeal panel. So that means he thought he made the correct decision sending him off.

Watch out especially for the games with Wigan, Everton & Newcastle ;)

According to the papers, the only way these decisions get over turned is if the panel find that the ref made an "obvious error".

Just seen ex Rag Robson,claiming it was never a sending off and he feels the art of tackling is slowly being removed.
Fair point he made also,that 30 years ago that would have been deemed as a great tackle from VK.

No surprise to me. Would of been a joke if not. For all the conspiracy theorists we had a lot of people backing us on this and surely had some influence on the outcome.

That article has come from a very bitter man who is still crying over Sunday's defeat. He said Koscienly should never have been sent off, the man is deluded. Them pictures of Kompany's tackle are all normal. What a sad pathetic article.
