Nope.

Quite the opposite.

Act like thugs, charge over a steward and get yourself noticed.

Being totally incensed to the extent of reporting the matter to the Police will get the following action:

[iThe police passed on the complaint to the FA, and the ruling body said: "The FA has contacted Robin van Persie to remind the player of his responsibility as a professional with regard to his future conduct"[/i

I can't wait till the time he goes in a huff and starts asking for £90K a week.

Was it you men he turned down for West Haaaam?
'Liverpool or West Ham? Five times champions of Europe or West Ham? 18 times ch... I'll take the money please'.

Yep.. Was made up when he turned us down to line his pockets, especially after what the cock did to Carra.

Blessing in disguise. Him and Heinze.

Was gutted when Heinze went to Madrid instead


Imagine the christmas party with him and Benitez

Great result for Everton. Would like to see Saha's red card.
'Extraordinary' and 'unbelievable' according to the radio.

The city fans were so incensed by Van Persie that it took them until Monday to complain to police.

They waited their turn. That's education and good upbringing

I seen it, I dunno, really. Raised his hands towards the player's face, player made the most of it. Don't even know if he touched him.

I'd love to see their sending off again as well.

Only caught the last 15 minutes or so.
Good news about Liverpool's new stadium.

At least they're talking about it. Still, I don't know much about the market but most have said it'll be a couple of years at least before anything happens.

Why has nobody mentioned Van Persie's role in the stamping?

If it's clear that Adebayor stamps on his hand, then why is it not clear that Van Persie clutched his face like a girl? Is this not simulation or trying to con the official?

You obviously weren't listening to Radio 5 this afternoon then. Not sure who the guy was but he really laid into Van Persie.

no

Just checked on website and it was 'Kevin Garside, sports writer for the Daily Telegraph'.

To be fair he did have blood on his face so unless some Quins style blood capsuleness was going on, he was caught.

His face got caught by Ade and it scraped the skin which then bled.

If Ade missed his face but stamped his arm, would anything have happened? If he done the exact same motion, the same stamping motion but didn't get the face, would he have been banned or would nobody have noticed?

Does making a player bleed warrant a ban, when there are players who have done far more vicious, pre-meditated things that have been completely ignored by the FA?

Also, does stamping on certain parts of the body warrant different bans? Would a stamp on the bollox warrant a similar ban as a stamp on the arm? They're both violent conduct, but somehow, I don't see the FA treating every situation the same, which is where their downfall lies. Inconsistency and lack of clarity in the rules continues to happen. How long can we let these clows run our game?

Saha's red card or Athens' red card!?

I didn't see the Athens one properly. My mate said their play kicks out and got Distin in the nads, but I wasn't watching properly so all I seen was him kick out but I wasn't paying attention to the contact.

The Saha one was weird, it looked like he just touched his face and the Athens player got sniped.

For me the FA got it right. Any stamp should be a red card and a ban regardless of where the stamp was aimed at. He knew what he was doing, he has not virtually admitted it with his statement overnight by saying a person can only take so much before they will react. He went to stamp on RVP and has been punished for it. I don't see how anyone can defend it.

Now if you want to talk about the celebration that's different, whilst what he did was out of order by running the length of the field, he was actually yellow carded for it so that should be the end of it. It's moe the reaction of the Arsenal fans at the time that have made that particular situation worse.

Unlike Arsenal and Everton fans, City supporters were not offended by Van Perie's verbal assault. It was only when Adebayor was charged with improper conduct, did City fans retaliate with a complaint to police. It's all very pathetic. Rooney celebrated in front of City fans at the Derby at Eastlands last year. Didn't bother the City fans. It appears that some clubs have fans who are delicate, little flowers.

I see that Adebayor has been called a 'boy' by Ferguson. Do you think it wise to call a black man, 'boy'? Hint of racism, if you ask me.

I see United fans are ecstatic that Adebayor has been banned. I thought we were supposed to rubbish, small etc.. Funny how some of you appear to be relieved that we can only put out half a team. Very interesting change in attitude.

Think it's more to do with Adebayor than City as a whole. The lad (is that ok?) has scored four in four.
