"Campbell - Facing Charge/Ban"

Well..

Looks like Campbell won't be escaping the kicking incident on Djemba, but Ashley Cole will get away scot free 'as there was no contact'...

Which again in my mind is inconsistancy by the ref and the FA, yes Campbell's kick was stupid and he is no longer the 'innocent footballer' he once was but how is Ashley Cole's incident any different to Campbell's?

He kicked out at the player and there was contact, anyone who watched the game will agree and in my mind he should also face the same consequences as Campbell.

Anyone else agree?

'Purpose' that's not the issue - you can't play football with your arms flying all over the place, your only asking for trouble.

And.. talking about 'Purpose' what about the kick on Djemba? I guess Campbell (the innocent gooner he is) just swirled around practicing his bally dancing technique and Djemba just go in the way I take it?

Lol perhaps but did he do it on purpose? No!

Yeh...you would too if someone struck you in the face!

because the Arsenal players always stay on their feet and never roll around like little babies do they? :\

Including the one where ole fell over like a piece of paper.

I think That's fifty red cards now in seven years,that's a bit more than just being competetive or bias against the gunners.

It looks like Mr Wenker has got his blind glasses on again. He's called the ban/charge a farce, yet he chooses to not see Campbell's kick and condemns Djemba for a raised foot.

Yes, Djemba's foot may have been high but only because he was striking on goal and Campbell closed him down quickly, he didn't raise his foot high just to kick Campbell in the balls, yet Campbell had only one intention!

Yet, Wenker cannot seem to gauge his slice of brain around that.

I know if a player tries to kick an opponent and misses the intent to hurt that player is still there,but could you imagine how many players would be left on the pitch if referee's booked or sent players off for every incident during a game that they thought had intent.

It's Arsenal foottball club's fault he is acting this way, have any of you noticed when you used to play for Spurs he hardly never got into any trouble he was a clean player but ever since his move to Arsenal he has become a very dirty player.

I thought Ashley Coles incident was worse than Campbells.

When will the FA get something right?
