Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a comedian in the room!
What's so funny? Barnes could have avoided following through into Matic and Costa could have avoided landing on Skyrtl. What's the difference?So moaning like a menstrual school girl does work then. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31613184

Opens up a whole new can of worms just to appease Roman & Jose.
Spuds play tonight. Fingers crossed for minor injuries to Eriksson, Kane and Lloris. Nothing serious, just a week out. Oh, and a French air traffic controllers strike delaying their return by about 18 hours. And a heavy defeat to sap their confidence.
That aside, I wish them all the best.

On a scale of one to Gascoigne, how pissed are you?That aside, I wish them all the best.
The game is tomorrow and it's in Italy.

How does it? All they are saying is that, yes it was a red card, but the punishment has been reduced due to mitigating circumstances. Very common practice in the legal world.
Well of course it does , every time a player gets a 3 match ban for a red card for retaliating they will ask for their ban to be reduced for mitigating circumstances. Or do you think it is just because this tackle is the worst in the history of the English game ?It's going to happen.

If there genuinely are mitigating circumstances then the ban should be reduced. i.e. If Ivanovich had pushed Suarez after the bite, I think it would be fair that he was sent off but served less than the 3 match ban.

So you think clubs will be appealing red cards for professional fouls or deliberate hand-balls etc.? Seems unlikely, especially when flippant appeals can result in a longer ban being applied.

So who decides the genuine mitigating circumstances ? If there genuinely are mitigating circumstances then the ban should be reduced. i.e. If Ivanovich had pushed Suarez after the bite, I think it would be fair that he was sent off but served less than the 3 match ban.
No. Read what i wrote, When a player receives a 3 match ban for a red card for retaliation then his club will appeal & try & get the ban reduced in future because of this appeal.
You can't just change the rules willy nilly, A red cad is a red card & a 3 match ban is a 3 match ban unless of course you play for certain teams it seems, i bet Barnes would have not got away with this if it was the other way round.
We are not going to agree so it's pointless discussing,
good day to you sir.

Fair enough, you know what they say about arguing on the internet.No. Read what i wrote, When a player receives a 3 match ban for a red card for retaliation then his club will appeal & try & get the ban reduced in future because of this appeal.

Does anyone know what the rules are with regard to bans and mitigating circumstances? I would be surprised to find that what happened here is a change of the rules with no precedent.
