    The PFA defending Babel, criticising FA response

    Quite rightly so. The entire episode is so ludicrous it should only be treated as a joke, unless of course there is substance to the implication, in which case the probe should not be into Babel. Does anyone know, did Webb make any kind of complaint personally?

    I'd hazard a guess at a one game ban and a 10k fine.

    Gordon Taylor should know better than to defend a lack of professionalism like that.

    There are rules regarding criticising referees and there is good reason for those rules.

    The FA should know better than to focus on a joke made in the heat of a moment when a spitting "sewer rat" like your El Hadj Diouf is abusing some unfortunate lad with a double leg break and getting away with it

    In fairness though, if a Liverpool player found a cure for cancer you'd still criticise him for putting doctors out of a job

    the thing that gets me is its Ryan Babel.... RYAN BABEL. The kid was having heart failure when he first came to Liverpool cause he couldnt find a church!

    He's barely 24, seems to hardly ever go out. I dont think he drinks (feel free to correct me). Loves his hip hop and his Jesus. He spends most of his time, from what i gather, on the internet or playing his play station. I saw that image so many times on the internet that day and had a laugh at it... A lot of people did. He got involved and gets himself into a world of hurt. I actually feel sorry for him we were all having a bit of craic out of that image but he cant? Shame.

    And fair play for Graham Taylor for sticking up for him. There's a lot worse than Ryan Babel out there

    He's just doing his job, trying to minimise the fall out.
