Today's football.

[noharmdone]

he's also facing a FIFA ban for the punch as well right? who would pay good money for a player who will be rusty for not playing for half a year (which SHOULD be minimum)

He has already been excused some pre season tour to play for Uaregay.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

That's not how it works. He won't play again this season.

Can't the FA choose to delay the hearing, like what happened with Terry?

I may be wrong here to be fair

The head shaking is what makes it even odder.
As you say, it's like a dog isn't it.

It's animalistic. Very disturbing. It's like one of those people brought up by wolves.

Only if FIFA don't ban him for the punch!!!

Only if Police action is being taken.

To be fair he should be on remand after today !!

 

[ScouseBlueBoy]

Wouldn't it be luvverly if players refused to play against him.

Will never happen.

They haven't got the b*ll*cks.

Punched an opponent in last Uruguay game. Caught on camera.

he had the audacity to sarcastically applaud ivanovic when he was showing the ref the teeth marks. (something all those clueless red bellends need to note when using the 'no evidence' excuse.

Only if FIFA don't ban him for the punch!!!

what's taking them so long, one look at a video and it's definitely a punch, no bones about it

Ah I see

How quick is the turn around usually between incident and hearing? He will probably get to play again before the hearing

I think that's what happened with Cantona but that was years ago and my mind is a bit fuzzy if I'm honest (Trying to do the mental maths to work out whether he'll make the derby or not)

No guarantee they'll ban him of course. The ref may say that he saw it but didn't think it was a bite. That would get him off the hook I reckon

He has issues that man. It is just not normal to do that. Twice FFS. I would be gobsmacked if he plays for them again, but then again, judged on recent times, maybe not! Look at some of the more "emotional" players in the league; Rooney, Terry, Shawcross for example; can you honestly see any of them doing that? Or ANY other player for that matter?

 

[NewRadical]

Minutes silence for the sewer rat if he gets a season ending ban - nailed on.

I'm sometimes surprised they don't boo the entire 39th minute.

I am not trying to be funny with that statement either.

Maybe Joey Barton, if he was having a bad day, his wife left him and his linguini the prior night had been under cooked. Oh, and if he had athletes foot at the time
