TRon Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Cisse was stupid to react but it would never have happened if that little shit hadn't spat at him in the first place. Easy to say he shouldn't have reacted, but a lot of people would have done a lot worse in the heat of the moment. Personally though I'd rather be spat at then have someone try to go through my leg with a high tackle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yeah, sport is strange in that provocation isn't a mitigating circumstance. Your opponent can do anything to you and if you react you're treated the same as him, if not more harshly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opponent can do anything to you and if you react you're treated the same as him, if not more harshly. Yeah, I usually wouldn't mind if the punishment was sensible in the first place, but 6 games, even for Evans, is ridiculous. For Cisse it seems insane (and even more insane if it's extended to 7). Whoever is making these decisions needs hockling on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Taking into account his elbow - his uncharacteristic indiscipline this season a longer ban is justified. I do think had he not retaliated with a spit, Evans would've escaped a ban. Tend to agree with this TCD. If you're going to get banned for spitting, he might as well have made it a big flemmy greeny and hockled it right across Evans's face. There's a nice thought as you tuck into your lunch............

All of this. + Hans post about how a 6 match ban for spitting. The fuck man. In retrospect, if you break someone's leg with a nasty tackle, you may just go unpunished. But spitting is far worse. This sport is fucking stupid sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 TBF I do think spitting is worse than a generic bad tackle, but not as bad as violent conduct like a stamp. Bad tackles are part of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leek Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The FA love things like this in publicised issues where the intent is clear to see, they'll come down hard to look as though there a zero tolerant organisation and look for credit from everyone. When it comes to any footballing incident where intent is as clear cut as someone spiting or biting, isnt picked up by the media or isnt backed from the public they'll continue to bottle it and go along trying not to upset the apple cart.
