Even corner flags were broken over players backs.. would have loved to see RVN skewed at the BBQ :mrgreen:
People have used this opportunity to hit out at Arsenal and it seems that over-reaction seems to be an appropriate theme throughout.
There is no doubt that the Arsenal players reacted badly - and though Vieira has done much to curb his reactionary instincts, they were apparent again on Sunday. RVN is a trouble maker - arguably the worst in the EPL. But that is more reason to not react.
Vieira must take the blame as the Arsenal captain and the leader of the team and as a professional - his reaction instigated the escalation of the whole problem. Tony Adams would not necessarily have reacted in the same way.
Now we are in a no-win situation. The FA have to do something. If they do something here they will have to apply the same due diligence to every match. However, I will be happy to take bets that this will not happen. How many times do we see player confrontations in a week? Is someone going to tell me that the FA will bring charges in every situation?
I doubt it - the FA ruling committee will be busier than a small claims court - which means that this will simply boil down to a basic witch hunt with the only beneficiaries being the Arsenal- haters and no real credence to the FA apart from being a reactionary body incapable of consistency.

Agree VanNizz but you're missing my point. In the NFL, almost every single period of play is followed by some kind of dance or in your face shouting at members of the other team or pushing or shoving, it is just normal. In hockey, referees stand back and watch while two players pummel each other on the face. The two best soccer teams in England had a bit of a flair up in one of the biggest games of the year and look at the amount of shit that has gone on about it. Watch the game, NOTHING MALICIOUS happened and its treated like World War 3 just started. It's so insane, soccer is fastly becoming a game for pansies, ballerina's and stuntmen.

gunnerglory said:Of course not, i couldn't see soccer going that far, but come on, two of the best teams in the world in a controversial heated game? It was nothing vicious. Give us a break.
