I agree.. but it's the rules apparently.blackskar wrote:Hardly call giving a free kick against him for it a 'punishment.

Yeah but that wasn't pulled up for a freekick, so the ref didn't see it and didn't punish it..EdinsonCavani wrote:Rio ferdinand got done last season for it didnt he againt hull? They need to sort the rules out

Yeah, but until the rules are change.. them charging Rooney for this would be technically wrong.. and we'd probably take them to court or something.blackskar wrote:kyro7 wrote:I agree.. but it's the rules apparently.blackskar wrote:Hardly call giving a free kick against him for it a 'punishment.
Yeah. I agree with what you said above tbh about changing the rules.
Don't see how they can let something like that go unpunished (ie ban), which is what that should have been on the pitch.
Thought the FA were trying to stamp out all this sort of thing?

Oh i see. They still need to sort the rules out though regardless of whether the ref has seen it or notmoscowmadeit3 wrote:EdinsonCavani wrote:Rio ferdinand got done last season for it didnt he againt hull? They need to sort the rules out
Because the ref didn't see it

Referee Mark Clattenburg told the FA he believes he took the appropriate action at the time. FA accept that - reluctantly or not

They cant just put it into action half way through the season now. For example, Lampard does what Rooney done and gets a ban. Chelsea would be furious as it is like one rule for one, one for another.
The FA need to make it more of an offence at the start of the next season and come down strong on it, when the first incident happens.

I didn't mean implement changes right now. Just that they should be looking at changing the rule in the future to stop stuff like this happening all the time.

They can't ban Rooney.
True. But giving a free kick against him, having a little laugh with him isnt exaclty appropriate action Re: Rooney will face no further action over elbow incident by Guest Tue Mar 01, 2011 12:30 am

Think I interpreted it wrong. But yea, I now understand what you mean.
Did he know it was an elbow to the head though?
