So the FA have announced that neither the ref nor the assisstant saw Tevez hit/punch (or whatever) Barton.
And have announced that the ref said he would have sent Tevez off, had he seen the incident, as video evidence has proven him guilty of violent conduct.
Yet Tevez has escaped without being retrospecitvely sent off and banned?
I don't get it...

Get over yourselves you bunch of tarts, Barton tried to block Tevez so he shoved him, it happens in every game when there's a corner. Whatsmore, the FA have to charge a player within 3 days of an incident.

RED666... no not massively.
But when players from other clubs are punished as the FA are following their own rules, surely the rules should be followed here too.
He should not be allowed to pley the first 3 games of the next season.
If he is sold, then problem solved! ha.

The point it, it's not consistant from the FA.
Oh, and you don't have to be charged within 3 days, Rio was banned for an elbow vs Sunderland about 3 weeks later and not many even saw it. lf the official says he'd of sent him off if he had seen it, then they should be banned, it's that simple.

The linesman saw it all and thought Tevez's shove wasn't even worth a mention but the ref decides after looking at a few grainy images that he should have been sent off? People should be questioning Mike Deans judgement in general. It wasn't as if Tevez had given Barton a Rooney-like elbow off the ball..

The linesman said he didnt see it either.
He was 30+ yards away, with a number of players in between, and Tevez on the wrong side of Barton. I can understand how he didnt see anything.
Stop the blind faith - im sure you were slating Tevez a matter of a few months ago.

The linesman flagged to call the ref over who then sent Barton off after a lengthy conversation. I was at the game and saw the whole incident rather than a pixalated image on TV.
Being an adult, I'm not going to say Tevez should have been sent off just because I don't like him.

If Tevez was rightly sacked all those months ago, he couldn't have scored and set up all those goals - thus United winning the league.
