I've heard all the evidence from all sources and i say if he doesn't get at least 3 months something stinks

Personally I'd give him the Maximum-2 years I believecbut then you've got to aloow for the lowe IQ of a footballer

F...ck me....anything pertaining to my employment is paramount in my mind

Maybe a nice half a million pound fine would be the go with no supsension
Nothing hurts more with these rich pricks than their hip pocket nerve

He has the wily old fox Maurice Watkins, the club brief defending him, plus other top shelf Lawers, he will probably get 3 months as you say Buttsie, a fine will mean nothing to him!,"der, does that mean I cant have another Bently for a while boss".....No! Rio, go and order one in baby pink, oh, and get yerself a new house whilst yer hanging around!
'Er ta boss!................any chance of a line of that?'...........

no chance will he get a 3 month ban, he should, but he won?t, sad to hear that Ferguson plans to play him at the weekend whatever the outcome, this coupled with Sam Allardyce telling Jay Jay Okocha that he should retire from International football so he is available for the Egg and Spoon cum semi shows where a lot of the problems with the Premiership lie, if that shit comes from managers then what chance of the players being classed as role models.

Just got 8 months. Appeal planned.

Should have been kicked out for good.

Knowing sweet FA about football, will he still get paid his megabucks during the suspension?

He's been made an example of so FIFA won't come out swinging IMHO



Yes he will miss Euro 2004 plus the first 2 World Cup 2006 qualifiers

Does the punishment fit the crime?

Not if you compare to a similar incident earlier this year-2000 pound fine no suspension....bit of a joke really

Different type of case Buttsie, the player in question was on route to the test, and was caught in heavy traffic, he explained this to them, and was fined about ?2000 I cant remember the player, but maybe this is the case your refering to...........

Whats the betting that they've given him 8 months, knowing full well that on appeal it'll be reduced to 4 months, which is what they wanted in the first place.

I'm actually quite suprised he got any suspension at all, the FA usually do what Merchandise United tell then to.

Maybe the FA heard Septic Blatter & Dickhead Pound screaming for blood
