    Robert Huth has been charged got pulling Fellaini's mop

    Likely 3 game ban ruling him out the rest of the season and the first game of next season

    Hopefully can argue it down to 2 so he is available for next season.

    On the other hand, Wasyl can get 2 more appearances to get to 5 and earn his winners medal.

    If the FA mafia had their way they'd probably try to dock you 10 points as well.<yikes>

    3 match ban for Huth. At least he's only let himself down as he'll miss playing in these two 'party' games and hasn't ended up letting the team down. I love Huth but he should take this as a lesson as to how he conducts himself next season

    He will make sure to elbow the other guy in the face instead of pulling the hair.

    Only applies for competitive fixtures - will be first game of the season which would be us vs the winners of the Championship if the "random" fixtures follow the previous pattern.

    Utterly ridiculous that the FA see a hair tug to be worse than throwing blood at somebody or stamping on someone's hand.

    They really are run by a bunch of imbeciles.

    The community shield is classed as a competitive game

    ... we would not have won the title without Huth ... how flinging your elbow into opponents face gets the same punishment tariff as a tug of hair is beyond me ...

    Not since 2009 unfortunately:

    Huth ban would not cover Community Shield

    Leicester City defender Robert Huth will be able to play in the Community Shield in August even if he is given a three-match ban for his altercation with Manchester United’s Marouane Fellaini at Old Trafford on Sunday.

    Huth was given until 18:00 BST on Wednesday to respond to a violent conduct charge.

    If found guilty, Huth faces being given a three-match ban.

    That suspension will cover Leicester’s final two games of the current campaign – against Everton and Chelsea – plus the Foxes' first Premier League game of next season.

    A rule change by the Football Association in 2009 meant the Community Shield was declassified as a competitive game, so is now regarded as a friendly for disciplinary purposes.

    The date for the Community Shield has yet to be published but is expected to be on Sunday, 7, August. Leicester will play the FA Cup winners - either Manchester United or Crystal Palace.

    I'd rather have him back for the first game and miss the shield

    Hopefully it won't be too big a loss if the pre-season signings shape up.

    They're only banning him because the incident took place at the same time as Fellaini's elbow, so they can't really ignore the fact it happened.

    Dembele got a 6 game ban for eye gouging - the same length as you'd get for spitting and less then you'd get for biting.

    They just throw a dart at a board and use that number don't they.
