Forsyth

If the FA want to ban him and they believe it's sufficient enough evidence, then an appeal wouldn't do anything other than extend his ban. Doesn't help when Sky were adamant of him doing it on purpose and focussing on that narrative. With the camera's picking it up, he cannot deny the stamp, whether it was on purpose or not. Appeal wouldn't be successful.

We know Forsyth isn't the type to do that sort of stuff. He's had 1 red card in over 300 appearances.

Where is the retrospective ban for Boro striker? Because it wasn't on Sky and focussed on by pundits, nothing was done. Shows the incompetency of the FA.

I think the thing most people are missing is that it doesn't have to be a deliberate act to constitute violent conduct. Just doing it, deliberate or accidental, is enough. 

Clearly Forsyth's at fault for obeying the laws of gravity. Should've learned to levitate by now ?

You're telling me "attempting to use excessive force" doesn't mean deliberate?

Just re-read that rule... forget what I said above... 

How is regaining balance "excessive force".

He's been charged with violent conduct because the people making the decision deemed it a deliberate stamp, not because it could have been an accident but still violent.

I'm telling you that under the laws of the game "when a player uses" does not mean it has to be deliberate act to hurt. We are taught as referees that a dangerous challenge does not have to be intended or a deliberate act to constitute serious foul play/violent conduct. Just the act of putting an opponent in danger through use of excessive force is enough. 

It's the same principle as the high foot/dangerous play when challenging for a ball. A player who's foot is deemed high isn't intending to injure his opponent's head, but that doesn't mean to say it's not a dangerous challenge and therefore punishable either by yellow or red depending on the force used.

What has he done that is "dangerous" though? He's jumped up, and put his feet back on the floor afterwards.  If you ban that we'll be playing crab football.

They both jumped for a ball, was it Fozzie's fault the other bloke fell and landed right underneath him?

Very, very harsh IMO.

I used to enjoy crab football.  

I'm not saying they're right or wrong, just trying to provide some context around the decision-making process. I suppose they think his foot went down with excessive force into to Forest player. They might decide there was intent. I've looked at it again and again, and can see both sides. My initial reaction seeing it live was that it was a bit naughty and it doesn't surprise me this has happened.

Nope, not I. I don't think I've even mentioned it on here as I think it always comes across as a bit pompous. But in this situation I did because I hoped it might bring some context about why or how the decision was made.

I can see why the verdict was reached. I just don't agree with the conclusion as i can't see the excessive force coming into it when it's a stumble. The panel making the decision must have concluded it was deliberate.

Another case of guilty until proven innocent.

no edge to my question honestly

I went to the Middlebro game, I don't get many chances but I happened to be in Derby.

The Jags incident where he was booked for full bloodied clearance left me wondering about modern football.  Such incidents seem to punish the winner of the tackle when both players had put themselves in a situation where impact was inevitable.  Not sure what a defender is supposed to do, back off and let the attacker win the ball?   Having deemed that to be a foul which could only be seen as a dangerous tackle why was he booked and not sent off?  The attacker applied equal force, why wasn't he booked or sent off.  At my age I don't automatically see such incidents as an offence.

I wonder if you would share your view if you saw it.
