Not that i know but how can he not get the ban that he been charged??
There is no way on earth that this appeal would have been lodged if the Utd lawyers who advise on these matters didn't think there was a good chance of it succeeding. Think Cleavers has it bang on with a 1 game ban to be honest.
Incorrect, it can still be judged as frivolous mate. Check the FA website.Pigeonho said:I don't think they can up it, because he has accepted the charge so there is no frivolous appeal being made. Rooney is appealing the length of the ban, which the FA will reject and uphold the original ban dished out.

I don't get this - I would prefer him not to play, as this would improve our chances of winning.
Having an excuse will be cold comfort for the rags if we do them next weekend - the result is all that matters.

I gather the rags will be told the decision today, and will then have to decide whether to tell the fat headed chump before tonight's game. Out of 'respect', the FA will not publicly announce the decision until tonight's game is out of the way - maybe late tonight, maybe tomorrow.
For the purposes of any ban, the clock will start today.
