I hate fifa

Yet more folding to media outrage.

Really, if they thought replaying a game was opening a can of worms what the hell do they think suspending somebody from the World cup for a yellow card offense is going to do?

Fucking muppets :awnker:

I would have no probs with fifa introducing bans for offences like this if they passed a rule in the summer time to enforce it from then on so everybody knows where they stand. In my opinion you cannot and should not try to introduce a ban like this in the middle of the season and try to hide it under the guise of an existing rule :roll: It is funny that enforcing stricter action against thuggery doesnt come higher in their list of priorities :oops:

So you'd be ok for every player to be banned from major tournaments because they handle the ball?

The ONLY reason this is being discussed (obviously) is because the handling led to a goal. Rules are rules, and whether somebody does or does not score from breaking the rules should not make a blind bit of difference in the eyes of the football authorities.

But it does because the people at fifa are clowns
