Charged with failure to control your players due to reaction of a red card. Said red card was overturned.

 

FUCK OFF FA.

 

:lol: Meanwhile the top teams form a bonfire circle around the ref on the regular with no risk of punishment. When is the fucking corruption scandal going to finally break. Jesus I can't wait.

There will be no corruption scandal. That's not to say there isn't any corruption though. According to the secret footballer, he talked to a referee and the referee said that Scudamore once told them“And, remember, you’re not in a sport, you are part of the entertainment business. We don’t want our top players being sent off every week because it’s bad for the brand. We want them on the pitch as much as possible.” For some reason nobody seems to care about this

:lol: So they've overturned it - and therefore accepted it was wrong - but at the same time charged us with failing to control our players? Go figure.

The FA rules are a bit like the old sink or float witch trial test. When dunked in the water, if you float you are a witch so you'll be burned to death. If you drown you weren't a witch after all.

Cheers for explaining how those witch trials worked. Always wondered. :thup:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I detect sarcasm. I wasn't sure if everyone would be up to date on 17th century witch trial practices.

 

Anyway, the point was the FA damn NUFC either way.

 

Mick is, he was there

No complaints about being charged for failing to control our players. FA said they were clamping down on 3+ players surrounding the referee at the start of the yearm

 

Correct decision to overturn the red as it wasnt an obvious goalscoring opportunity as Fletcher didnt have posession of the ball hence no goalscoring opportunity

In the Chelsea game at the weekend when Matic got sent off, Terry went up to the ref on his own and the ref said "go away" which I thought was wrong as he's the captain and entitled to some kind of explanation. I was actually quite impressed it was only Terry going up to him. Not 3 seconds later Ramires flies in along with about 5 others and surround the ref. I'm quite sure Chelsea were not charged for this. Just book them all, it will stop.

Not in the Premiership yet, but there's a bit of a scandal brewing in Spain.  Anyone believe that it's limited to Spain?

f***ing hell, wasn't expecting this.

 

Was clearly the wrong decision though.

 

One thing that pisses me off even more than the penalty decision/sending off, is an even more blatant penalty that wasn't given 15 seconds earlier that nobody seems to mention - totally disgraceful decision which should have been given for the handball but most definitely given for the immediate foul with the other arm.

It's rife in this country like - some of it might be pre-meditated and therefore possible to prove, but most of it is subconscious and therefore impossible to effectively criticise.

 

Well that goes for the in-the-moment decisions when the ref thinks he'll hate his life if he goes against the big clubs, but FA punishments clearly run much deeper.

So an FA employee makes a monumental error, the Newcastle players complain, two days later the FA hang the ref out to dry and agree with the complaint of the players, then charge the players for complaining .......WTF
