'Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.'
"I honestly feel the punishment has been against the man and not the incident"
No doubt about that, and whilst the ban is too severe I can understand why given his inability to learn from past indiscretions - at what point should a serial offender but punished more severely than a first time offender?
I can see why it's more than 3 days but 10 is madness.
What is the other incident other than the Defoe one?

"We need to understand what an independent panel is. Yet the day before the hearing the FA are recommending certain punishment - it's not independent then."
Now talking again about Defoe and the hypocrisy of being chosen to play for England having received no charge.
