The FA confirmed on Monday that because the incident was seen by referee Martin Atkinson during the game no further action could be taken.

Such bull that because a ref sees an incident no further action can be taken. Why can't they just admit their employees made a mistake and make a move to rectify it.


I also want to comment on MCB saying because Matic's leg wasn't broken means it wasn't dangerous. You can see his leg bend in the videos. That's dangerous and lucky Matic's leg remained strong. Does not make it an okay play. That's a horrible argument.

"In the vast majority of challenges for the ball, no retrospective action is taken as the incident has been seen by the match officials. Retrospective action introduced as deterrent for ‘off the ball incidents’ [e.g. kicks, stamps etc.] committed out of sight of officials. Whole game in agreement that, in vast majority of cases, match officials are best-placed to deal with incidents to avoid re-refereeing. In line with this rationale, FA confirm no further action in relation to Ashley Barnes as incident was seen by the officials"

You can't fix that kind of stupid.

I genuinely thought he was trolling at first but apparently not.

It really is the worst logic/line of thinking I've ever seen.

He probably wonders why drunk drivers are ticketed unless they cause a fatal crash or why charges like attempted murder exist if they weren't successful.
