Just googled it, Shelvey got a 5 game ban, and a 100 grand fine.

WBA and Pardew stand behind Rodriguez. Terrible, they should have already taken action.

Interesting to note that the scumbag Alan Pardew will fully support Rodriguez.....that player he knew so well , even though he had only been his manager for a few weeks.

Just had a look, one comment was about how can he be charged with alleged racism.
Every charge is alleged until it is either proved, or disproved,

Possibly, time will tell if the wait was worth it, if he wins his appeal then it's 3 weeks wasted.

Radio 5 saying Bong has said again on French TV that the comments were racist. That enough evidence avalible to charge.

Bong just gets on with it and very rarely has any cause for complaint, he even took a boot to the gonads and shrugged it off without feeling the need to appeal.
This is a testament to his character, and for me why I always believed there was something in this. Nasty little rat is Rodriguez, apparently Pardew knows all about him though and has looked into his soul... having been in charge for all of a month.

Perfectly put. I can think of no reason why Bong would have made this up
If Dancing Al is vouching for him then he's probably guilty and probably a complete ****.

Bizarre twist that a club and fans who only weeks ago celebrated what Regis achieved for black players now come out and stand by their player.
If this is upheld they are all going to look rather silly and their recent celebrations will become nothing but faux sentiment

Bong is on a bit of a no win here .. if its found in his favour some people will still berate him and if there is insufficient evidence to prove it he will be branded as making things up, as such I don't think he would have taken this route if there was no substance to his claim.. whatever the outcome I am as the youngsters say #teambong
Rodriguez didn't play last Saturday.....which I thought was odd at the time, given he had been scoring freely leading up to to that game. Could be unrelated, of course.
I daresay that if the positions were reversed and an Albion player had been charged with the same, some fans would be rallying behind him as well - “he’s a top bloke who has never shown to have this in him before” etc.

And that was with a video of Terry calling someone a “Nig*er”. It’s still despicable that Terry only got 4 games after Suarez got 8. But then again Terry could write “I hate black people” on his forehead and he’d still just end up with a smacked bottom.

A striker had to be dropped to make way for loan signing Sturridge.
