Over the past two days, the FA appear to have become a different organisation. Perhaps they have succumbed to the new Tory government and the reduction in bureaucracy, who knows.
But anyway the Fa's new fast track system has undone both David Moyes and Gary Cahill in the space of twenty four hours. The misconduct charge placed on Moyes for his outburst at referee Martin Atkinson is absolutely spot on, no manager should be able to breach the much maligned "respect" campaign in such a way especially when Atkinson had done the right thing.
And then today ...
Bolton defender Gary Cahill's appeal against his dismissal in Saturday's loss at Arsenal has been rejected by the Football Association.
This is not the right course of action, Cahill did not deserve to be sent off, but it sends out the right message early in the season. The teams need boundaries around referees and here one has been clearly formed.
Next game for me ... Bemerton harlequins on the line, thursday night (oh joy).
