The difficulty could be the timing. Other games only 3 days apart and not enough time for charge and appeal, so we shouldn't be treated any differently simply because we have 6 days between. I would certainly cite that as part of any appeal process and difficult for them to impose unless 100% certain and whatever your view there is definitely a grey area regards intent.

Might mean him being unavailable for the final though if we appeal.

'Caught on camera.'

Doesn't say owt about live TV does it.

I did have a link from an article which I can’t now find that explained why it’s the case that action only occurs after a live TV game. They quoted I think one very bad incident which was an exception - research it and find any cases where a non live game has led to action. It never ever happens.

Sky didn't even show it in their 30 min highlights programme the next morning

What is the hierachy?

From the lowest....

Player

League
FA
The Sun
Sky?

I am talking about the word stamp. He trod on him, he didn't stamp.

I agree it was not a stamp
I think he deliberately stood on him, he could have avoided his leg if has chosen to.
Big difference between a stamp and what Davies did.
However. I bet he gets banned. Harsh lesson for a young player
Have a bad feeling about it.
Good job we have cover in Willis and McDonald

I think Willis can ably cover, though I would say Davies is the better player of the two.

 

[ccfcricoh]

stamp or no stamp - i'm not sure we could argue if they said the kicking out should have been a red on its own...

If that was other way round we'd be shouting for it.

He lost his head a bit and i think it'll mean he misses Friday unfortunately.

Agree about all the comments though that it has happened to us a lot this season and this is the first time we have really reacted, but doesnt excuse it

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Travesty and I hope city take it as a huge inspiration to fight for the win if he’s banned! THE stuff they’ve got away with all season. Would be far more unjust than the penalty

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

No one is looking at the altercation just when he trod on Duffy

 

[gspotgaz]

Funny how ameobi elbowed McDonald in nuts full pelt off ball and nothing happened

 

[wingy]

So he's been charged and can appeal and review panel will look, then come to a conclusion.
Shouldn't they view it before changing him ?

 

[Gazolba]

Person A: "I saw him do it". Person B: "I disagree".

 

[wingy]

It has to be unanimous by the three independent former official .
Hope Dermot is one of them .

 

[Liquid Gold]

For a charge to follow the decision must be unanimous. So they are reviewing it but not said he's guilty of anything yet. Surely there is enough doubt in there for 1 of them to say it wasn't a red card offence.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

I would make a stance on this and next season appeal for everything no matter how trivial and totally waste the time of the appeals panel. I would also appeal that Forte swung an arm in the other incident and try for a ban for him.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Huge loss and he will be banned no question. Unbelievable

Extra match ban on appeals not overturned I think

A too panel of former officials will now review the footage and detrrmine whether it incurs a ban?

I think he meant appeal for every time we get roughed up in games. The FA would either be dealing with 20 things a week, sort their refs out or let things slide.

 

[Notts Man]

he was never going to get away with it ,,, complete idiot

[1/2] Coventry City’s Tom Davies has been charged with violent conduct following a 21st minute incident in Saturday’s game against Notts County [12/05/18]. It was not seen by the match officials but caught on video. He has until 6pm on Tuesday [15/05/18] to respond.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

No I mean in any game next year when we play put in complaints about any little incident just to waste their time, also if we appeal this one how long does the process take as the ban may end up into next season instead

If it's former prem refs then we're screwed, any contact in that league is a foul but we've just been through a season of our players being assaulted every game and got nothing. It would be a joke if we were now being punished.

Not surprised it was missed he missed most things and the decisions he made he got wrong like the blatant block on Mcnulty which he gave the other way

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

We may as well appeal it. If we don't, he misses the next game and the final if we get there.

What an arbitrary decision. If this was a normal league fixture nothing would have happened. It's a sham trial of public opinion.

 

[ccfcricoh]

Has nobody got a link to stamp, haven't seen it back yet

Now that’s absolutely true

No because there wasn’t a stamp he was putting his foot on the ground and Duffys leg got in the way

 

[wingy]

It shouldn't really make too much difference .
We're well covered and apart from two or three games across the season the other three haven't been exposed .
Assume the worst is happening and focus on what is within control.
No need wasting nervous energy here.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Hes been charged. I did think at the time thats plain stupid by him. quite frankly he deserves it. just a shame as hes been playing so well. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come from him in future as his discipline has been questionable on few occasions.

 

[chiefdave]

What are you on about, even Duffy said after the match it was accidental! Presumably there will also be a charge for the assault on McNulty?
