Chris Kamaras view on FA's decision making


The FA have a tough decision to make over Marouane Fellaini

Officials have stopped looking for grappling in the box and Everton's Fellaini took the law into his own hands against Stoke's Ryan Shawcross - three times. The first one - the headbutt - was a definite sending off; the second incident, when he was trying to shrug Shawcross off, was probably a yellow; while the third one, when he used arm, could have been a red card, too. I don't like being too hard on officials but what exactly are they looking for?

People are trying to compare Fellaini to Joey Barton but it is different; Barton's antics (after QPR lost to Man City on the final day of last season) happened after he was sent off and it was easy to dish out a punishment. Fellaini, however, would have got three-game ban for the first offence and the same for the third - but if he had have been sent off for the first one he wouldn't have been on the pitch for the third. So this is a very difficult one for the FA to deal with in terms of what length of ban is handed out.
 
anymore then 3 and we should feel hard done by. if the ref actually did his ****ing job it all could have been avoided

If Fellaini wasn't a ****ing idiot we wouldn't be looking at dropping down the table and missing a champions league or europe spot. He's let us down in the past with this kind of behaviour, I thought he'd grown up.

Everyone on here that is sticking up for him needs to have a word with themselves. I hate defenders grabbing hold of players but thats not the way to resolve it. He's embarrassed Everton and the fans
