Title: Michael Turner & The FA
Post by: DerbyRed on Tuesday, December 22, 2009, 20:44:55
Nice to see the FA up to their old tricks and its not just us who suffer at their hands:

If it was a Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool or Arsenal player I would bet the FA wouldn't slap an extra game on and tell the club they were wasting their time!

IMO it was a foul and nothing more - I thought the elbow was completely unintentional and accidental.

Fully agree Derby. When Liverpool had 2 players sent off at Fulham a few months ago, they appealed...and failed, but they didn't get any other games.

The FA = Scrooge (Bah humbug !!)

It wasn't even intentional. It's ridiculous how it's one rule for some and another for the rest. The FA really do need to take a look at themselves. Unfortunately I'm slightly worried that's all they actually DO do all day...

Let's not forget it's Michael Turner, a big useless northern cunt and therefore this is hilarious.
