mat said:Ballotelli has served his. Purpose. Deflecting any criticism of bent officials over shocking decisions at the weekend.
It's so blindingly obvious why the decision to let Balotelli off has been taken:
The Premier league challenge is all but over
Champions League place all but secured
Mancini himself said that he wouldn't play Mario again this season
This provides the perfect cover that our beloved MCFC do not get unfairly treated as 'Balotelli' didn't get retrospective action taken.
Derry doesn't get overturned, simply because that would be admitting that the decision was B*llox, a mistake had been made, and the rags given an unfair advantage. There was no way the FA or Premier League could openly admit that.
The problem is they think its clever but in my eyes it only serves to prove they are continually trying to cover their tracks and present the image of 'evening things up' even though it actually does nothing of the sort.
I don't believe its incompetence because it is surely impossible for 'any' governing body to be THAT incompetent when faced by the opinions of thousands to the contrary.
