Well if he's not a conscious racist then what was he when he said those things? Angry? Out of control? Joking? I'd love to hear the FA's reasoning behind that statement.
I trust he has to take a series of courses and community work that lasts 15 months then? I suggest starting by sending him to Bradford, Moss Side or Brixton and getting him to repeat his words in public. If he recovers from his injuries then in 15 months once his ban is up he can work in football again
It’s an independent panel, and the FA are exploring legal avenues to contest the decision.They decided that Wayne Hennessy giving a Nazi salute was an accident so no more than you can expect
