fuck the FA

[iffy]

When Crawley go into administration, that's £1,000 they won't be getting from us.

[Ardiles]

I am embarrassed by the FA.

[Spud]

Have we skipped a month and a half?

This whole F.A. vendetta is getting a bit stupid now! Let's see if C*nt Evans & the Cheltenham manager get fined and a touchline ban for their actions last week? I bet they get away with it?!

[Chubbs]

But we'll still win the league

[Ardiles]

I have a plan.

(a) We should fine the FA back, for being dicks.
(b) We should fine Crawley for 'failing to control our players', particularly Messrs Rooney, Bodin & Benson.

Both of which would be equally justifiable and make about as much sense as the original fine.  Infact, let's set both fines at £1,000...& we'd be in profit.  It has to be worth a try.

A joke decision considering the way Evans was all game. Melts the lot of them.

I cant even get angry about this anymore.  The FA continues to make themselves a laughing stock with ridiculous, unfair and frankly baffling decisions.

There is no consistency.  

Our manager is sent of for waving his hands, every other manager (including Evans) get away with screaming in the face of officials going out of the technical area and trying to influence the officials at every step.

Our players surround the referee over a bad decision but week in week out this is ignored for every other team.  Did Crawley control their players?  It takes to to tango.

It makes me want to weep and is killing my love of the game.  If this continues the football world will be peopled by fans who's only experience of football is through the filter of television and pundits who tell them what to think.  Anyone with a genuine passion for the game, including our manager, will desert it.

Im almost to bored by it to want to fight it.  Let the FA have their game.  The soul-less, corporate, hideous game their mismanagement is creating.

Excellent post.

Everyone that goes to Edgar Street on Saturday chucks a £1 coin into a bucket.  Job done.  Fuck off Evans.  Fuck off Crawley.  Fuck off The FA.

[yeo]

We should have a 1p collection and hand over 100000 of them at the FA office at Wembley.

[Batch]

baffling.

[farmer61]

£1,000 v 6-0 aggregate score. Good deal imo  

Edit : and six points of course

[Swindon Please Win]

No fine in this case. It wouldn't annoy me if they were consistant in their decisions but their just not.
