stamping = 3 match ban from my view he clearly re directed his foot towards van persie

incitement =2 match ban OK he didn't start any riots but the length of the field he ran to incite them was just wrong after all he is supposed to be "professional"

The stamping....OK, 3 match ban seems fair ..would be more if up to me (although intent can't be proven (as with the Eduardo dive) and the ref must have seen it, just decided not to take action).

The 2 match ban for incitement would be a joke IMO. He was given a card...that's the end of that.

But Drogba threw a coin into the crowd..surely that's different? (unless I'm thinking of a different thing that Droggie did)

Okay I admit that I may be slightly biased but I would not consider a six match ban excessive for the stamp on RVP alone.

I have no problem with a big ban if someone intentionally stamps on someone else...all for it.

But a 2 or 3 match ban for his celebration would be ridic;

So is a footballer ever allowed to stick one up at the fans who have been abusing him for 90 minutes?

So if a player runs the length of the pitch to celebrate in front of the opposition fans and the fans react like a bunch of savages it's the player that has the problem?!

I've been a season ticket holder most of my life and have abused the players as much as the next person (and in response expect to have to deal with the same in return) but I've never seen anything that made me want to physically hurt anyone.

I just worry that we're taking all responsibility away from the fans to be decent human beings and think it's a dangerous road to go down.

with football supporters as they are they Will be aggressive with instances like adebayor moving to city,with this in mind and the fact he IS a professional on what 80k + a week,to purposefully goad the penned in already wound up (savages) cant be tolerated surely, this is no way of excusing the fans but before long either a player will be hurt by a missile or a fan could get seriously injured in the surge forward,avoidable yes.

 cmon we all know what its like when the gang mentality takes hold at football matches with supporters,so why allow fuelling an already ticking bomb?
