For once the Adver comes up trumps, picture of the incident shows NT clearly sliding in to their player with LV close behind! But this is the FA v. Swindon Town so not much hope of a reprieve. If only it had been on Sky sports with 99 replays from different angles, the FA's mind would already have been made up!

Now williams just has to explain to Vigaroux why he said he can't handle crowds behind a goal

No one likes their beans spoilt Batch. :-)
If it's proven that it wasn't Vigs I'm thinking that Nath will get away with it too as it's the ref's cock up. Anyone know if this is right?

Apparently not, they appealed for wrongful dismissal not mistaken identity

no, I think it shifts to Nathan. mistaken identity.
edit: eh tans? thought it would be mistaken identity. oh OK, then they are trying to get it overturned. risky

Hadn't seen the footage and was merely looking at the (slender) positives of a Vigs ban...ie mental break for Vigs and an opportunity for a decent young replacement in Henry
You would have to think an appeal would succeed.
Not sure whether Thompson could take a ban now or not? It's not mistaken identity (one player in blue and one in red - duh) it's just wrong.
You don't normally trawl through video footage and ban someone days later because a player did make contact when the ref had judged he hadn't and wrongly waved play oni? This is not violent conduct, is it?
Also has Thompson been sent off this season? If he hasn't and he could still take a ban then it would only be for one game rather than two

I'm still not actually sure what he was sent off for so hopefully he has a case.

He's done that with no fans behind the goal

Really? that one passed me by, then again the whole game/aftermath passed me by I think I mentally blocked it.
