    No bearing on the Prem at all. But I remember they made an exception with Scholes once when he got a red card in a pre-season friendly. The PL banned him for opening game (or 3 games I cant remember) The only player that's happened to iirc.

    Rivals were seething as it went against the "favouritism" conspirace theory towards Fergie & United.

    It didn't just happen to Scholes.

    It happened to Rooney as well.

    They changed the rule for the following season and if I recall correctly it benefitted Stevie No Titles despite the anti-Dipper conspiracy.

    Many years ago I ****ed up my ankle playing football. I needed 6 weeks of physio which I was very pissed off about. And then I met the lovely young lady who I officially had several dates with over the next 6 weeks. Even better she wasn't allowed to cancel the dates and had to fondle me during them. Ok she may only have been fondling my ankle but still...
