Quite possibly so but I just feel that it is wrong for a manager to try to get another player banned, leave that to the refs. I can understand a player playing to anothers weakness like Buckley attacking Harding and him getting booked then continuing taking him on to provoke another card...
The point of my argument that has been missed or I didnt put across correctly was that Whinger highlighted the challenges because Arsenal got beat, had he not done so it would have just been just put down to the ref and that would have been the end of the matter but Gabriel wouldnt have escaped...
You are the one talking rubbish if the ref has taken action of some description ie given a free kick or even a yellow card the FA CANNOT take action as it has been dealt with. They cannot say the ref dealt with it wrong. If he has taken no action they can then take retrospective...
For the FA to take action a complaint either to them directly or via the media has to be made by a member of the FA or an associate so by his comments in the press that would have been sufficient for the FA to act. FACT
Not true we have refs to control games not defeated managers. Had they won would he have said anything? No not at all just sour grapes and trying to get his man off of a ban. Hope the FA see this and uphold the bans if appealed.
