    He never stood a chance , UEFA always rules the one way, look after the big
    teams from the big Countries and let the wee poor country folk go to hell.

    [h=2]Brown fails appeal ...[/h]

    " Brown appeal fails " surely ? I sense a hun oriented agenda here. Pud is looking more and more like a brother by another mother every day.... or.... is it a cunning bluff ?

    By the letter of the law it was a sending off, it was light contact but there was the intent there, so yeah we have a rule which covers this type of scenario and Brown was punished at the time - but how to hell do they consider Brown's violent act to be so extreme to be outside the rule that was already applied and to warrant a heavier punishment? If Brown's actions were severe enough to warrant extra punishment what level of violent conduct in a match allows you to stay within the limits of this rule and not face a further punishment?

    As I said Mick it's a farcical decision, I doubt they will now be handing out 6 game bans for two footed lunges.

    Was the wee bastard from Brazil not diving with intent from the third minute .
    Didn't the referee have a friendly word with Neymar and it appears when Neymar
    advised who he was that was enough for the referee to give him special protection .
    Surely that was why the referee flashed the yellow card for such a long time .
    It was not to the Barcelona players explained to the referee that it was their
    special player was on the ground that the referee changed his card to red .
    It was obvious that a player from Scotland had no chance against a
    Brazilian god.

    It was a deserved sending off ...in line with the rules of the game but a three match ban <doh> - ridiculous.
