Hemed stamp [Charged, appealed, banned for 3 games]

Indeed a comparison also.
Definitive from the club. Apologies to those who were hoping otherwise:
The FA’s 3 person panel has already reached a unanimous verdict based on reviewing video evidence, as the referee will have confirmed he and his officials didn’t see it at the time of the incident, hence the charge today.
We now have to decide whether to accept the charge as it has been set out - and a 3 game ban for Hemed - or appeal the charge which allows us to present mitigation but also risks a further match being added if the appeal is considered to be frivolous.
The decision whether to appeal an FA charge in situations like this is one that the Chis Hughton and Paul Barber take together.

This is why we need a squad. Because players do stupid things and or get mistakenly punished. How on earth Lineaker got through his entire career given the latter is one of the wonders of the modern football world.
Don't appeal. Decision already made by the League.

If Paul Barber writes the mitigation the panel will still be reading it after the next international break.

It’s just that English law is based on precedents, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable for this to roll down into the English FA rule book. Obviously it looks like the FA have made their own laws and rules.
I've just read the Argus article. I've no idea which way Andy has interpreted it, but it does read as though he believes the review panel is still to happen, when it already has.
Don't need to be Johnathan Creek to work that one out.

Is there any way if found guilty he could get a lessor ban say 1 game as that would seem more appropriate?

Nope - violent conduct is 3 games.

If 3 refs say its a stamp I can't see the need for an appeal its not as if another one is going to go against his mates

Can they introduce Yedlin's leg into mitigation.I'm sure a stamp would have left heavy bruising.Doesn't necessarily have to be attached to Yedlin!
Blimey.
