end of the season just for the severity of it...weather he meant it or not (i belive he did set out to hurt him maybe not as much as he did but thats not for here) he still risked a mans career with recklesness, on the street he'd have got done for ABH or somthing similar for that so should at least miss the rest of the season imo.

sorry i've remain quite the whole thing up until now

Taylor should get a 3-5 match ban, Yes it was a bad challenge Yes a players career might be over (fingers crossed its not) but the challenge was a mistimed challenge, would we be doing polls if Flamini made this challenge lets me fair he has made some nasty ones this season.
thats my opinion I still think he's a *word censored* though

Actually Rebel, If it was the other way around Willy would have got a much longer ban and probably deported because he's " one of those dirty johnny foreigners that plays for them Arsenal cnuts" :roll: :roll:

What if Eduardo had jumped and Taylor's studs missed him. Lets say the ref red carded him then too for intent. How many matches should he have missed then?

no one thinks the 3 match is enough,, point is rules are rules whether they are right or wrong :roll:
when you see alialidere get his ban increased to 4 games for a tiny slap then you know the system is flawed :roll:

We all know if it had been an Arsenal player the ban would be more than 3 games.And as i have said on earlier posts how come Ben Thatcher got an 8 match ban last season?

Well i think the ben thatcher case is a lot diffrent, there was a clear and intended action from ben to get the player. Although we may not like it Taylor has got (in footballing terms) what he deserved by the letter of the law, and untill the law changes you can really argue with it too much. Despite what people may think, i personally reckon an arsenal player would of only got a red card as well. Yes there would of been more of a media out cry but i do beleive it would be left at a red card. Although the FA can supprise everyone with their stupidity, as proven in the aliadiere case.

thatcher was proven intent to hurt ( i know taylors could have been the same ) plus his disciplinary record was atrocious compared to taylors which was excellent up to last sat :shock:
