So time for a poll?
What ban would the FA give a professional player:
a) 99 years,
b) 12 games,
c) 3 games (it was only violent conduct),
d) no action as the referee saw it.

Ouch!

I'm going with e) (a mix of c/d) No action taken, eventually changed to a three match ban after a media campaign!

Man alive. It's a club ban rather than an official ban so he is kind of free to play elsewhere. Wonder what official punishment he received?

It would be nice if the FA would grow a pair and start handing out punishments like that! Well we can dream can't we

I'm pretty sure the USSF would ban him. Not sure how long though...

Prem game?

Would be 12 games I would think

Grass roots?

Probably be appealed and a personal hearing would ensue resulting in the CFA scratching heads and sticking with 3 games

Of course you'd hope the injured party would call the police and get the knob done for assault
