As a strong supporter of Arsenal and Arsene Wegner, I must say this is a total dissapointment which no doubt will be felt by the entire team. We have had players sent off so many teams it`s not funny. I accept the fact the he supports his players all the way but he has to draw the line and set an example.

Arsenal have so much to lose this season and the last thing we need is bullshit like this happening. The FA is coming down hard on us due to bad history and previous warnings.

I dont think its the previous warnings that have got him the 12 match ban, its there new 'no-nosence' punishments. I personally dont think they work because, if your gonna lose your temper, your gonna lose your temper no matter what the consequences.
I also think the so called 'fines that are handed out by governing bodies are a load of crap. Look at Beckhams fine for instance (there are other examples but I cant think of em now), 4k for spitting in the direction of a ref, Yeah like thats going to dint his bank account!

i agree and disagree about some of the stuff said what wgner did was totally wrong but a 12 game suspensio was a bit harsh and as for the fines they should stay in place ya its a joke sometimes because the money the players earn is a joke now days and like you said it is not even a dent to them but it serves as a quote unquote deterent

I'm replying to this subject quite late,so with the latest goings on in the fa,it seems that the fourth official in question cannot be trusted,due to previous misdemeanors,involving swearing at a player and his general attitude.

[B@tigol]

well a manager shouldn't act like this :)
at any circumstances as he's the brain of the team n' he should keep cool all the time

You're right in saying that a manager should not act like that,but what exactly did he do.
The general mild manner of the man suggests that he would be unlikely to do anything violent.Whereas the fourth official in question is currently suspended from football for swearing at a player.
I doubt if we'll ever know what really happened,but his appeal is set for next week.
