Interesting that the FA panel have said that the Suarez incident was considered in isolation and that his previous record was not considered. I assumed that the 10 games must have been at least partially because of his previous, but I imagine this will raise some questions.

Not only did they not take into account his past actions - which makes a mockery of the 10 match ban considering that is what every Tom, Dick and Luis thought was being used to get to that number - they didn't even compare it with previous bite cases but this:

The Commisson did not take into account that no further action was taken against Jermain Defoe in 2006, and instead used the case of Brighton's Ashley Barnes, banned for a total of seven games for tripping up a referee, to judge the length of Suarez's ban.

Did you also read Ferguson's interview? Basically came out calling the FA a joke and that Liverpool did the right thing not applying their own bans for him. I agree.

I reckon Luis basically has accepted the ban because its a lose-lose situation for him. Get it shortened and people will think he has gotten away with something and there is more ill-will towards him. Get it lengthened instead and he is on the sidelines even more. What a ****-up this whole thing was. The only good thing, hopefully, will be that Suarez will stop with this nonsense that aids nothing to his game.

Got in with 10 minutes left. Thought about putting a few quid on the draw so that I'd be happy either way. Decided against it. ****s.

The Greens celebrating finishing 21st in League Two for the second year in a row. Excuses last year due to being in adminstration and using schoolboys and park players for the first half of the season. This season is just pure incompetent neglect and putting together a **** team. Hopefully the same mistake won't be made again this summer.
(Yes I know no one else cares but..................)

You can only play what's in front of you and the only top teams he's played against since joining are Spurs and Chelsea and he got <60 minutes in both.

Haha, guy on 606 who made a £500 bet in the last minute of the Brentford match, on Trotta to score first...

Robbie Savage has just offered to pay him back :laugh:
