[BFC SITE] FA CHARGE

I agree with others. The person that needs looking at was the ref. **** poor.

 

Fully agree. Also, no reason whatsoever for our Goalkeeper to run 100yds to get involved.

 

I don't suppose they will see a definitive angle on that one, should be asking the defender if he wasn't injured why didn't get straight up off Shepherd.

 

I am glad this provides us with an opportunity to present what happened, as I suspect we wouldn’t have otherwise approached the FA about it. The player who punched Vimal needs to have some action taken against him. You’d hope the FA would understand why our players got involved, but I doubt that changes the rules that they shouldn’t have done so. It may go some way to mitigating it though, I guess it depends what sort of precedent they want to set. It being the first game of the season probably doesn’t help.

 

Gobsmacking.

 

Whilst you make a very valid point and counter argument, it won't remove the yellow/red shepherd got.

It won't also (from previous incidents) change anything other than BFC being in trouble for something that was not in any way of our own making.

Just standing our ground.

Personally, and I know it isn't a 2 wrongs make a right, i'd absolutely knock the chops up off both he bloke that hit Vimal, and the bloke who started the whole shabang.

******* the lot of them.

 

Who is likely to have made the ‘allegation’? Will it be the ref, or a league official.

 

I can only assume, but I imagine its from the referees report which has had to have been looked at? Hence both being charged so far

 

Absolutely ridiculous, and what's the betting we come off worse than Plymouth in the end.

Having watched it back a few times I'm still struggling to see what Shepherd did to warrant the yellow, apart from being pinned under their player who was clearly having a go at him.

 

Hmm. Not enough for him to have both sets fans booing him off at the end then.

Edit - Maybe the booing influenced his report??

 

Ref trying to cover his arse, blowing a smokescreen around his incompetence and the fact he nearly played on after booking the same player twice. Numpty.
