A lot will depend on what Halsey says in his report.

But if he does get a retrospective ban we should all email the FA with links to the 4 stamps suarez has committed this season, and maybe a few of Shearers and Rooneys elbows that went unpunished too.
 
It might do us a favour. We have become a bit over-reliant on him. Now other players will need to step up. There was a risk of him burning out too. If he has a month off mid-season to rest and recover from any niggling injuries he should come back with a bang to terrorise defenders.

I'd rather he came back and terrified midfielders tbh. We have actual strikers to terrify defenders.

12 game ban for that. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if he got 6. When you take out the 'drama' of the players surrounding the ref:

- Barton kneed Aguero in the back of the leg, then pushed his head towards Kompany

- Fellaini headbutted Shawcross and then hit him with an open palm
 
Jesus H, what have that lot got to do with this now ???!!! can we just leave them out of it, for once, please ??!!

It was bad, very bad. I dont need Shearere to tell me.

Because you've just said Fellaini has become one of the most hated players in the Prem. As Suarez is THE most hated, then that's the point of comparison.

I hate that game...

I wish Joey had done Balotelli though as he was walking off..

Barton went berserk for a concerted period of time, Fellaini didn't - the players state of mind. The FA also consider the impact on the rest of the game that the incident caused - Barton went for repeated people and had to be dragged off the pitch.

It has to be a very serious incident to deviate from standard disciplinary procedures and, for me, Fellaini hasn't really done that. If the ref sees the headbutt, it's a straight red, three game ban, and that's that - there's no reason whatsoever to extend it beyond that.
 
Now that is a good point......

Its a difficult one cause if he does get a ban of any length its hard to defend.

Its just that with the examples above, compared to the Barton one, sometimes the FA pull their fingers out their asses and sometimes they don't.

No telling really what they do but considering the amount of coverage this is getting i'd be surprised if they don't do anything.
