Re: The Football Chat Thread : Wed Jan 11, 2012 8:22 am  
now the following may or may not be true but as the FA dont need conclusive 100% proof to come to any major decisions just " it may of probably possibly could have happened how we see it"
thats how im looking at the following copied and pasted comments from other people



Denis Smith was one of the three that chaired the Suarez case for the FA.

Denis Smith is also the man that claims in his auto biography that he saved Alex Fergusons Job.

Denis Smithe coached and made Darren Ferguson his captain at Wrexham.

Denis Smith attended Darren Fergusons Wedding.

Its safe to say Denis Smith is a family friend of the Fergusons.


ALSO


Another interesting twist in this story, Kompany's ban has been upheld by the FA, a four match ban for his challenge on Saturday, and I decided to read the FA Report. It seems that 8 of the 9-man panel thought it should be overturned, but they need a unanimous decision to overturn red cards. The one man who refused to overturn the red card? You've guessed it, none other than Denis Smith.

i am not saying the above are true or correct..................

Seems to be that it's all a massive pro-United conspiracy within the FA to handicap their biggest rivals like Liverpool (snigger).

Re: The Football Chat Thread : Wed Jan 11, 2012 12:52 pm  
Interesting article about Sir Alex in this month's FourFourTwo. It sounds like retirement is out of the question, then mentioned his father's death a year after he retired.

So is it a hunger for success or the fear of ending up like his Pa?....or the fact he isn't the boss of his house thats stopping him? :)

If a player sent off gets a four match ban e.g. Kompany, then Suarez should think himself very lucky to only get eight matches.
