MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 If it gets 1 match extra he misses the Spurs game...VERY FOOLISH. Why on Earth does he think he can win? FA are cunts so they won't even consider it, the only reason they are even allowing it so it seems to support democracy and doesn't look like some dictatorship judgement.Saying that he deserves it and should accept his 3 matches ban, now he will lose the appeal and miss the Spurs game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Chelsea will say to the FA ... prove he meant it, and it was intentional. That is the only way it can be "violent conduct". Pretty sure the appeal goes to an independent commission too... .the only thing I would take from it is Chelsea know if the appeal is frivolous he misses cup final, so we must have some pretty good evidence if we think we can overturn itVery very very slim chance of winning, but not completely dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakey 36 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 He's contesting the charge. Not sure what to think, but I doubt it will be overturned.What are the consequences of us appealing this? Can Diego now play against City on Saturday? If the appeal is unsuccessful can they increase the ban? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the appeal is unsuccessful can they increase the ban?Yes to both of you're questions the majority of the time, but the FA seem to have fast tracked the appeal meaning he mightn't be available for Saturday's match.

The Tottenham is after that sequence.If it's fast tracked and a decision is made before the Citeh game he won'tWe'll definitely know the results tomorrow, according to what has been reported.

robsblubot 3,595 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 it's contagious in a very positive way: http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/diego-costa-gets-us-fired-up--chelsea-star-eden-hazard-hails-controversial-teammate-10007952.html Eden said, Yes, yes, yes. When you play with this guy, you have to give everything. You can see in every action and for every ball, he gives his life. Can't ask Diego to hold that back; get a proper replacement (perhaps Remy though not sure) to play the odd games Diego will be unavailable.

Popular Post! DYC. 7,542 Posted January 29, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted January 29, 2015 Neville supporting us haha always liked him as a commentator/pundit one of the best in business for meI'm convinced Diego knew what he was doing. I don't know about stamping but he was trying to hurt them a bit, annoying them, trying to affect their game. But I have to agree with Neville, you can't prove it. There have been a lot more incidents where the intent was (more) obvious. So yeah, doesn't deserve a ban.

There have been a lot more incidents where the intent was (more) obvious. So yeah, doesn't deserve a ban. what if the answer is neither? perhaps it was not as premeditated as suggested, nor as casual. He prob thought, "i'm gonna get to the ball even if I have to walk all over this fucker lying on the ground." Diego asked Terry for backup (pretty cool audio commentary): http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02hvkfv MichaelDance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
