What's happening with Petrovski?

[fedelta]

Good news

 

[graaant]

Juuuust waiting for them to change their minds due to our jubilation..

Annny minute now..

I dont know wether to be relieved or say wtf. IMO they both struck Shields hand and I was worried wed lose Sash for a bit, just goes to show the muppets at the FFA have no clue, although the criticism they have copped since Dannys dreadful decision may have made them actually look at it closer

 

[Mariner Girl]

Very relieved but only strengthens my quote on Danny's topic - The FFA wouldn't know sh*t from clay 

They would have to be the laughing stock amongst the clubs right now 

 

[Ted]

Ahh good stuff. But, it makes Danny's result seem even more excessive by comparison....

 

[adz]

I love it how we can complain even though this one went our way

Agreed. Just watched the "attack" again on Prime and their is minimal difference between the violence of Danny's attack and Sasho's on Shields.

So what was FFA looking at.

Now that Sasho has been cleared does that leave the way open to use his verdict when they appeal the severity of Danny's.

 

[Mariner Girl]

Because we have won a battle but not the WAR

I'm also curious as to the justification.

IMO, Sasho should've been sent as well.

Perhaps the FFA did take into consideration the precedents they've set in adjudicating on this case?

Are we 100% certain it was the hand tap he was cited for? 

 

[fish]

no way that would show theyve learnt

I think the difference is that Danny was wearing gloves, therefore it would have been different texture, shape/size etc. Shields would have noticed it more so then just a bare hand..

But they haven't learnt, the thing they've been slammed the most for is inconsistancy, and this is just another inconsistant decision, do they just toss a coin to make these decisions?

it wouldnt suprise me. at least sasho is in the clear - thank heavens for that!

. maybe they only read as far down his cv as 'sydney fc golden boot winner' before announcing case dismissed (... do we have a tin foil hat smiley?)

. i still think the only reason shield gave danny a red was because he was keeper. shield does a double take and when he realises it was danny chases him with a red - it seems like he is thinking 'hang on a minute what is their keeper doing all the way down here? did he run all the way up for a high five?' its not inconceivable that shield didn't realise he had been up there for the corner

. no excuse for either though i'm afraid

Maybe they thought he was going after Shields nuts?? As we all know, that is ok with the FFA
