Hardly surprising is it considering the FA never overturn any decision.

As a protest to the FA for their treatment of PDC and his touchline shenanigans, shall we organise a protest at the JPT final by all flapping our arms?

It might look really funny on national TV seeing thousands of people stood flapping their arms and perhaps make the FA think twice about any future bans.

The FA have proved yet again they are a bunch of Cunts.

So for waving his arms Di Canio gets a 3 game ban.
Mancini can wave an imaginary card to try and get an opposition player sent off and thats fine?

Cunts.

Don't imagine his post game outburst has helped his case any. Still a harsh decision by the FA in my opinion, PdC being punished as much for who he is as what he's done.

Man City have the Poznan, we could do this and call it the Chihuahua

As previously mentioned no action against Mancini, and no action against Ferguson who went on national television and crucified a linesman last weekend!!  One rule for the poor and one for the rich I guess!

I was actually expecting at least 3. So quite releived. What is the record number of seperate bans in a season statto's ? Is this another record we can grab?

And it seems to have cost him the manager of the month award as well, still at least the curse won't hit us this month!

I wrote a statement in support of PdC which was submitted as part of the STFC submission in support of the appeal.  I am now going to write to the FA and express my disgust at this ridiculaous decision.  Perhaps we could drown them in letters?  And insist on them replying....

If anyone wants to post up a draft I'll happily do it!

His reputation's gone before him again. Poor decision from the FA.

It's time to make our voices heard! I have an idea... Call and bombard The FA 'Report Abuse and Discrimination' hotline voicemail reporting the abuse and discrimination of Paolo Di Canio.. It's a freephone number from a landline so dial away - 0800 085 0508 - Who's on board?

Didn't that fat crook Evans get sent off midweek? Hope to see the same treatment and some fucking consistency!

If we win every remaining game they'll find some excuse not to give it to him.

I was so looking forward to these two meeting again. Now they could both be in stands! In which case, I hope they put them in seats next to each other  :D

And then we have this:

How is arm waving a more serious offence than clashing with opposition players?

( I know this was mentioned last week by the way, but then I thought it might mean that Paolo would escape punishment).

What a joke.  Lawrie Sanchez was continually outside of the technical area on Tuesday night and the fourth official never said a word.  One rule for PDC, one rule for everyone else!

A couple of updates on how the club are planning to prevent the FA bringing another charge...

He's been in trouble 3 times now  - sent off twice and the Northampton effort. As Suttonred says I think he's got off lightly.

He was over the touchline at least twice on Tuesday as well.

Doesn't deserve a ban as he's done nothing wrong! The FA are trying to get rid of all passion in the game.

Thing is, a lot of managers will do these things. Always interesting to see who gets away with what.
