        What an absolute disgrace that is. Next lad in England who's sent off for kicking and gets a 3 game ban should appeal it, the FA are a corrupt joke.

          It is an absolute disgrace, it was done in malice with malicious intent, whereas for instance Spearing's red card was just an unfortunate two-footed lunge and gets 3 match ban. Not that I'm appealing on Spearing's to get reduced. But Rooney's was a red card 3-match ban if ever I saw one. Well, nothing new in the corrupt world of football there!

            It was a UEFA decision though. Cant blame the FA for appealing it can we?

              The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                You can't blame them, but it does raise an interesting question...

                    No. But the next lad in this country who's sent off for kicking someone will get a 3 game ban and if he dares to appeal it the FA will raise the ban not reduce it, theres the problem.

                      Totally agree with that. If the FA is willing to go to bat for Rooney, they cant hand out longer bans for the appeals that they deem frivolous

                        Well the FA is in charge of bans for players in the English league, as well as for appealing against bans against the England team from UEFA/FIFA. Do the FA believe that Rooney's challenge didn't deserve a 3 match ban? - in which case similar appeals from clubs should also be successful. Or were they prepared to kick up a fuss just because it's a situation that affected them negatively, in which case are they justified in punishing clubs or players (with further bans) for doing the same thing?

                          I dont think anyone at the FA is clever enough to think that far ahead. Jay will appeal, he will get turned down, and it will all begin again.

                          The FA needs leadership, I dont think they are corrupt. But I do think they are stupid.

                            Jay won't appeal - Kenny's just said so in the PC.

                              LoL, these are rhetorical questions. It would *SHOCKHORROR* mean that the FA might be two-faced, deceitful, yee ol' double-standard, each other backslappin' brethrens of hell!
