    Weve seen it with robbie and now again with Zokora. This is becoming a joke. The FA are never going to back down on any decision against Spurs.

    They'll back their refs all the way even when everyone knows it was never a red.

    We are not just playing against a team or a referee ITS THE WHOLE SYSTEM we are playing against.

    As you can probably tell I'm not happy.

    In last year's FA Cup Steve Bennett sent off Ipswich's George O'Callaghan for "stamping" on Watford's Danny Shuitu. Straight red and 3 match ban but it was completely overturned on appeal by the FA. No benefit to Ipswich or to O'Callaghan they lost 1-0 to Watford.
    Someone mentioned on another forum that FIFA had been onto the FA about overturning red cards and that it was undermining referees decisions.
