As Fuller was sent off with a straight red should the club appeal? Apparently Styles had a similar incident at the weekend and only flashed a yellow. I should imagine the players have now sorted things out(as you normally do after a heat of the moment incident)and all of us would like Fuller to be availableasopposed to sitting in the stands..Personally would prefer Fuller to be playing and apologising with a few goals!!!!!

We won't appeal because we haven't got a leg to stand on. It was violent conduct and warranted a red card. Appealing would only result in future appeals not being taken seriously and/or an extension of the suspension a la Aliadiere....

You make it sound like 'should we appeal?' and we'll probably win  No we shouldn't as it was a nailed on red in this day and age and we'll never win so it would be a waste of time and effort. |

My view of this situation is that West Ham were the team who gained most from it although it was in fact nothing that was done against them. Why could the ref not (as in friendlies) go over to the bench and say replace him or he'll walk?
