Lucky Jon Walters isn't throwing the book....

I had just the slimmest hope when I clicked this title that it would be in a court of law. Unfortunately the most it will mean for him will be a suspension, I'm pretty sure the man would better serve society by a stint in prison...

What? So he can learn from pros how to assault others more effectively?

[Bassey the warrior]

Throw the book...at his elbow. That will really hurt.

It would be good if Nzonsi was also charged. I know posters have said that that cannot be done if the referee showed the yellow card however it was not a normal foul but a deliberate slap to the face. Can he not be charged with bringing the game into dispute for giving such a fine example of fair play in front of all those primary school children?

The rules dictate if he gets booked you can't do anything.

[Roberty]

It would be good if any ban included our next two games against Stoke! As it is another club is going to benefit from his absence for a "crime" committed against us.

Good news, gutless by Huth glad he has been charged

[Fulham1959]

Huth charged . . . into the penalty area and assaulted Philippe Senderos !

[MOR :]

Great news...couldn't believe he got away with it during the game...

[MasterHaynes]

If Senderos' head didn't hurt his elbow then nothing will.

I am a bit confused. Someone correct me. You cannot get  YELLOW FOR VIOLENT CONDUCT,IT IS A STRAIGHT RED. I assume then it was for a foul, if so the deliberate slap in  the face is a separate issue meaning he can be charged. But then we are not privvy to the ref's report of the incident

[The Enclosurite]

The FA really need to drop this stupid yellow card rule.  Basically the ref has screwed up so Nzonzi can't be punished.  Crazy.

[westcliff white]

rather than have a go at the ref who was on the blind side and could only see the arm and not the contact, what about the linesman lokoing across the pitch, he owuld have been able to see the hand hit the face.

the ref should have put two and two together but he got no help at all as he didnt on the huth incedent

[The Enclosurite]

Surely by issuing a yellow though the ref has acknowledged that he has seen the incident.  There is no middle ground yellow card here, he has either not seen it (no action taken) or seen it (red card).
