Barton's Ban

John Terry will not be banned, what happens in courts has nothing to do with the FA. Barton didn't get banned for going to jail. Aside from that you know Terry will get off. He'll be playing for england again.

 

Barton will never learn, the best thing we did was getting rid of him.
Got a feeling QPR will sack him. What good is he to them being out until Novembetr.

 

Very harsh for me, ex player or not. I know 15 games was touted by some on here originally (some wanted longer) but for me that was just ridiculous for what he did. For me I'd have fined him more and banned him less. On the critical side, he did give them the option and his career history in this department is not great!

 

Tevez gets away scot free despite the fact he started it. Also, Tevez was allowed to come back and play for Man City despite the fact that he buggered off to play golf for 6 months in breach of his contract. Surely the FA should have thrown the book at him for that?

 

It isn't just that Joey was one of our players. Those golf playing, old school tie tossers at the FA have chosen to heap all the wrongs of the game on to one player. Why? Because they see him as a liittle bit separate from the herd, from the tedious 'sick as a parrot', 'over the moon' prat you normally get on after match interviews.

I repeat, he has done nothing really violent on a football pitch, which is really all the FA should judge him for. Those who are condemning him as the epitome of all evil should have a good, cold, hard look at themselves.
