Yohan Cabaye retires


Optimistic Nut

Any word on it? How long before the FA normally look at these incidents?

 

Dunno but we will appeal imo, even if it is just to delay the inevitable, going off Suarez we'd have two weeks from the decision, means he's available till Tiote is back.

Good I'm going to the blackburn game, we can't afford to miss him for that one.

Not 100% sure but think it is a quicker turnaround than that in these cases. Think Balotelli had until Wednesday night to appeal for his stamp last Sunday. In that case I think if he were charged and we appealed he could probably be available for Blackburn, but would then miss Villa, Spurs and Wolves. If it was deemed a frivolous appeal then the ban could even be extended to 4 games so he would miss the mackems.

 

It is all hypothetical as he hasn't been charged (yet?), but I think I would rather he missed Blackburn away than Wolves and the mackems at home.

Can't understand some of the reaction to the incident - looked more sinned against to me. Also even if there was a case would it have been so had the match not been live and overpaid pundits are frantically looking to "create" controversy out of nothing.

It was nothing like Ballotelli's offence and the other guy suffered much lesser injury than McLeans "accidental" head butt on Rhys Williams in the Boro Sunderland match.

Coming back to his general game, his competitiveness and little bit of steel impress me, the greatest midfielders I've seen combined aggression with sublime skill, Gazza, Souness and Brian Robson for example. Not that I'm placing him in that esteemed company yet, he has a lot of skill, a good big match temperament but on the aggression scale of 1 to 10, Glenn Hoddle being a 1 and the thug Cattermole a 10 plus, he's only a 3 or 4 at most.

It was completely like Balotelli's, he kicked out towards the guys head & was lucky to only barely catch his lip. We'll be lucky if they do nothing about it, he easily deserves to be banned for a few games.

I can see both ways, he did lash out, which was stupid and wrong, but I think it was more of a lash out because the big galoot had fouled and landed on him, think he was more kicking out at kicking him off, but ended up catching him in the dish.

He lashed out, he didn't aim for his head.  No chance.

Doesnt matter if he aimed for it or not, Balotelli wasnt looking at Parker when he lashed out either. Its obvious stuff. If it was a different team we'd expect a ban.

 

True, I wouldn't complain if he was banned, totally his own fault.

 

Bollocks, it's like Shearer-Lennon all over again. Looking at the replays and the reaction of the players, it's obvious El-Abd heinously headbutted Yohan's boot in the tangle.

No news is good news I suppose...

 

Next game is on Wednesday so you'd have thought that they would have charged him by now if they were going to?

 

Charges decided, appeal done and decision made is usually in time for the next game. We would have heard by now.

Newcastle midfielder Yohan Cabaye could face a three match ban after being accused of an X-rated Mario Balotelli-style kick.

 

Brighton defender Adam El-Abd was left with a cut lip after the second-half clash and claims Cabaye deliberately kicked him.

 

He says referee Lee Probert has promised to study the video evidence after missing it during the game and that could leave Cabaye facing retrospective action from the FA.

 

Manchester City striker Balotelli was banned for four games – including an extra game for a previous red card – after video last weekend showed him kicking out at Tottenham’s Scott Parker.

 

El-Abd said: “I think it was frustration on his part. He had a little kick out at me. I’m a big boy and I can deal with it, but I think he knew what he was doing.

 

“The ref said to me at the time that he was going to have a look at it again on the monitor.

 

“It was pretty clear and the ref could see I had blood on my lip. It didn’t magic itself onto my lip.”

no chance he could have a look at the deliberate elbow in the face on williamson aswell, also the tackle on cabaye that should've been a red aswell.

If Cabaye gets done NUFC should demand the FA look at the elbow on Williamson which was much more clear cut (literally).

 

Trial by TV is a joke. Unless every game is reviewed after the event for misdemeanour's (using the TV images recorded at every game up and down the divisions (broadcast on TV or not)) the FA shouldn't be able to only punish those broadcast on Sky, ESPN, BBC or ITV.

You're absolutely right, the situation is farcical when it's being left up to the agendas at the media organisations to decide what gets flagged up to the FA, and that's exactly what happens. How many times have we said at the game "that was nasty, I'd like to see that again" and then it doesn't make the editor's cut and we hear nothing more about it? When Joey Barton got done for punching Pedersen, there was an incident in the same game where a lot of people said that Jason Roberts had raised his hands to Coloccini - I've never even seen that once. Speaking of Jason Roberts, he's now employed by the BBC as a pundit - are they going to be impartial if there's another incident involving him, and flag it up?

 

I don't see how they can justify banning anyone for an FA Cup matter anyway given the massive difference in coverage from game to game in the same competition on the same day. The way ITV filmed Spurs' game in the third round, Modric could have come out for the second half in a Ford Escort and mowed down the Cheltenham back four and you wouldn't have been able to make it out.
