Its about principle, cant let them get away with double standards either so yes, we should appeal even if it costs us one extra game.
Get away with what

RVP & Ashley Williams confrontation resulted in a yellow card.
 
Re: Appeal or not? SN.

I don't have a problem with the red.He stuck his head in his face, it was dumb and he was sent off for it.

My problem is,how Red nose can gob it at officials,haranguing and abusing etc ( unpunished).............RVP did a similar to Nasri much worse last week (unpunished)...............Rooney abuses official every fcuking match ( unpunished)

thats my gripe,the double standards,and embarrassingly biased officiating week on week.
 
Re: Appeal or not? SN.

There is absolutely no point in appealing for the following reason:

Rule 1. The referee is always right.
Rule 2. When the referee is wrong Rule 1 applies.

Anyone who thinks Bassong should get his his yellow card upgraded to a red is missing the point. He was yellow carded at the time and therefore the incident was dealt with and cannot be subject of retrospective action.


Finally Nasri's actions amount to violent conduct the fact there is minimal contact is irrelevant the fact there is contact makes it an act of violence and therefore is violent conduct.

7-8 times out of ten Sami would have got away with it, moving his head like that means the ref had an excuse and an appeal would be useless. IMHO we would be better off pursuing the back-pass/ push-over, and the fact that the ref had a stinker in general - the Nasri incident is actually not one of his worse decisions today which is why it wasn't 0-7.

Some of you are forgetting how bent the FA are.

Not at all Pam, I'm assuming todays performance has ensured the ref is on Fergiescums list of FA approved refs for home games at the swamp.

He was yellow carded for the foul, yet he put his head into Nasri, much as Nasri did to him, yet he escaped further punishment.

He should also have had a yellow minutes earlier for a foul, but got away with it.

TBH I'm not a fan of the Monday morning retrospective reffing. We got shafted by it last year and I just don't like it. My main issue is that (like last year) it seems some games/incidents are looked at more than others at FA headquarters on a Monday. At least a bent/shit ref on a Saturday has to do it in front of 30-60'000 witnesses and MOTD.

I know what you mean but the FA will still see it as dealt with, I wasn't saying it was right just what the FA would say. Nasri was also sent off on the basis of what the linesman saw not what the ref saw so the ref didn't deem it a red card he probably thought the yellow for the foul was sufficient for the whole incident but once the linesman says Nasri butted Bassong he has no choice but to send him off. If the FA ask him to look at it again I doubt he will change his mind.

stop with this intent nonsense. You should not be done unless you actually do something.

You can't be charged with murder/gbh/criminal damage (whatever) without actually commiting the offence regardless of intent. same should apply in football.

I think you may find that you can be
