Well not having featured at all in the last 3 games of the season and the summer break and pre season to build up his fitness, if he breaks down again after a couple of games, we must get rid, we are not a rest home for injured players anymore or are we?

BRISTOL86 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Big difference between a player removing excess spit from their mouths/clearing airways before/during intense athletic activity and aiming it at someone at a retaliation/provocation. Strange that the club are standing by the player despite a charge as you’d think they must have been presented with any evidence used in reaching the decision.

Are you saying that in the case of my clip the player could not hold his spit in for one minute during a solemn occasion for a BCFC legend?

Its a real shame as I loved Fammy, but it really has taken the shine off of him for me. Spitting at a player is as bad as it gets It also puts a shadow over the Club whereby other Championship fans will give us a hard time Not acceptable in anyway and if the charge is proven and sticks the Club must come down hard on the player to show the others they have dealt with it!

Offside Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Stupid of him to get banned for behaviour like that. I'm surprised it has taken so long and come out of the blue this late on, though. 27 minutes ago, Fodbarmyarmy said: Am totally amazed by this.......3 pages and nobody has blamed LJ or MA.....shocked aint the word I blame LJ and MA.

I think defecating on the still twitching corpse of the man you just murdered is worse than spitting at someone but takes all sorts i guess.

Mr Popodopolous Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Looked at the photo and tbh it's pretty inconclusive IMO. Would have to watch the footage and look at the photo again and does it not look like more of a head to head? Seems very odd to be so long after the event and for David Davis and Birmingham just to react like nothing happened... The FA...I don't think they have a great view of us. I would suggest our reputation for pyros though it should by rights be totally separate to this, has put us in a dim light with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengalcub Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 The Paterson spit is completely differant I don’t take that as any disrespect intended , he’s a footballer and spitting is part and parcel of the game and they all do that before during and after the game , that said if fammy has directly spat at another player then he deserves everything he gets ...

stevep38 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Is there any conclusive evidence that he did spit? Dont think i will condemn FD until i see it with my own eyes.

It seems to me that for future reference perhaps SL/LJ should make sure the players are made aware of their responsibilities the next time there is a minutes silence/applause, personally I would have thought that it was just the expectation of normal civilised behaviour.

Yes because that’s the same as 30 seconds before an elite athletic event. What a bizarre analogy. Silly from Pato but clearly no intention of disrespect. He’s just on auto pilot moments before a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really struggling with how the FA have been able to prove that he spat, bar a statement from one or more people, TV cameras didn't catch it - perhaps 4th official or something?

Major Isewater Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 25 minutes ago, Loon plage said: Understand what you say, but Famara isn't really big news is he, nor do I suspect his conduct will create a withdrawal of sponsorship deals, SC sales or a slump in hospitality bookings. To be honest, if a journo with some influence got hold of the disabled fans issue then I think it could be more damaging to the club and would be more likely to get mainstream national media attention than a spitty footballer. Famara is a top international striker on the edges of a World Cup call up , Senegalese, French and English media are interested. Especially in this off season . As you can imagine, personally , I am disturbed by the mismanagement of the disabled persons parking situation . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts too, but to then come out with unwavering support of the player after the charge is strange. Makes you think the evidence is far from conclusive.
