And I completely agree.I realise that, I'm on the side of Rooney. My point was that there is no written rule or precedent for this. They've taken it out of their collective arses.

This is a discussion board, if you haven't realised. Obviously posters are more likely to respond to threads/posts/opinions if they disagree with them.Problem is, you seem to do if only to be controversial if anything else.
I have always wondered this you knowIs it even legal to increase a punishment for daring to appeal???????
Doesn't that remove the right to a fair appeal???
Find one piece of evidence that I think it was right, just one.Do you understand the word conspiracy? I said it last night he'll get charged. It's simply understanding the climate and the mood the FA is in regards to United at the moment. You keep changing your tune to back the FA as each moment passes. First is they won't charge him, now it's the right thing but, it will get overturned on appeal. Only thing cringeworthy here is your bum licking of the FA.
Suprise suprise.Btw rednev in being a fecking twat shocker.
I know, I just thought it perhaps deserved a separate thread for the benefit of persons who just hit the threads page every now and then.
Yes, it effectively discourages a party from appealing their original decision.Is it even legal to increase a punishment for daring to appeal???????

Who has done the same as Rooney and got away with it?
.
Its not about the "f word" being picked up or lip read, its about him ranting it at the TV viewers and no other players have done that this season, have they?Hang on are they going to make sure all footballers don't use the 'f' word in future? What a joke, I didn't think the story was worthy of comment...let alone expect an outcome such as this. I hope he retires from the national side.
I can't believe some people are defending it, what he did was wrong and was always going to be trouble. In fact, he ranted at the camera on the pitch for England at the WC, remember? "nice to see your home fans booing you", which people did not like and later had to make a comment to take it back so what did he think was going to happen if he took it a step further and swore at the camera.I can't believe there are people here(rednev doesn't surprise me) who think Rooney deserves it.
Every single time players go to celebrate someone will shout something along the lines of 'fecking come on' or 'fecking get in'. The only difference between that and his is that they weren't looking directly at the camera. They're just as reckless about who hears it and the language is no less foul and abusive.
Again, it's the old chestnut, where's the consistency?
I have realised whatever topic is up for discussion you often like to throw a cat amongst the pigeons.This is a discussion board, if you haven't realised. Obviously posters are more likely to respond to threads/posts/opinions if they disagree with them.
he is a wum, he thinks the FA are in the right to charge Rooney for that.Btw rednev in being a fecking twat shocker.
Not that I should have to explain but you spout the same rubbish about Rooney all the time, read your posts and get a grip he is our player. If this was any of our other players you be bloody fuming, no scrap that if this was Ronaldo you'd be bloody fuming...What makes you think it's acceptable for you to tell me to feck off?
My opinion is different from yours. That does not make me a prick, and it doesn't give you the right to tell me to feck off.
You need to learn some decorum.
Only club to have team entirely suspended for being members of a players union.If it was that I wouldn't mind so much.
But all they do, over and over again, is use us as an example of what won't happen if a player from another club comits the same offence.
My mate just said "thye've made a rod for their own bakcs here" but the point is they haven't. They have made a rod which they will forget all about as soon as the next similar case comes up.
Oh well, one to add to our wall of shame:
- The only player to be banned for 8 months for missing a drugs test
- The only player to be banned for writing an autobiography
- The only player to get banned for getting into handbags with a racist groundsman outside of match-time
- The only club for whom red cards in friendlies lead to suspension in the league
- The only manager who gets banned for saying the ref was not "fair and strong"
- The longest ever ban for violent conduct in Premier League history (not that Eric didn't deserve a long ban, but how long would Shearer have got for the same offence? A couple of months I reckon)
- The only player to get banned for swearing during a goal celebration
Have I missed any?
Drogba swore and critised the ref in the same outburst.Now you're just being silly. Saying get the F in after a goal is not the same as swearing at the camera or viewers, why can some people not see that? Someone even tried to say that Rooney swearing at the camera was not the same as Drogba doing it. Its laughable it really is.
Head not hearts guys. The ban will sting us but stuff them.
The camera even went to Rooney in the middle of a goal celebration, a vital one at that, what did they expect him to say?
"Jolly glad I slotted that one home, what what."
Two games.If a player is sent off by a referee for foul and abusive language how long is the ban usually?
Boringly predictable, isn't he.Rednev thinks is a fair call, now THERE's a surprise
What? Not a chance....only played 22 of our 31 league fixtures. Since the turn of the new year his form has been on a upward curve, and that hat-trick would have given him a ton of confidence.Horrible horrible decision by the F.A.
Looking at the bright side it might prove to be a blessing in disguise. Rooney's played a lot of games recently, and a little rest will hopefully keep him fresh for the run in.
Yup.FFS
cant say i didnt expect it though - the media fall out has forced them to take action, ABU cnuts !
Is it one of those that if you appeal your ban is extended?
He was unlucky to have had a camera thrust into his face. I've caught him using the 'f word' plenty of times during celebrations.l exactly what.
Its not about the "f word" being picked up or lip read, its about him ranting it at the TV viewers and no other players have done that this season, have they?
