Agreed....not an issue if said to a man, so same to a woman, in this instance. The film of the incident shows it was not malicious. | |

I think context is so important. The same comments in a aggressive manner to a stranger would be completely unacceptable: watching the footage, it doesn't seem that way. We can make jokes with friends that in other areas of life would be massively inappropriate. I guess in the public eye and at a press conference, people are going to have to learn to button it. | | | |

He said it humorously this time but there was an underlying threat there. I doubt he would slap her but if she finds herself excluded from the press room at some time in the future she may think he really meant it. Beginning of intimidation isn't it? I know he is under pressure but managers must expect questions like this and it is not as if she asked him whether he was going to be sacked in the morning. | |

so you are suggesting the woman literally thought that moyes was going to slap her ? now, if he had slapped the lady, then obviously he should be punished accordingly it was a tongue in cheek comment, that is being blown out of all proportion | | | |

he was never going to literally slap her though was he ? anyway, 12 months in prison should teach him a lesson i guess that what you mean by "throwing the book" at him or do you literally expect the FA to throw hardback copies of their handbook at him as his punishment ? | | | |

If Sunderland wanted shot of him, they could have done it after this incident, so I assume he will be in post in the championship next season. Think the FA should have let this one slide really. | |

They can't keep sacking managers and would have had an eye on how Newcastle succeeded by keeping Benitez at the club. | |

I reckon they can. But they could have done a few rises with Moyes and haven't. Very different to the georgies I think. They went down fighting and with the fan base desperate for Rafael to stay. Mackems have gone down like the Villa and they don't appear to like Moyes. Think they'll do better than the villa next season though with a half decent start. | |

I beg to differ. He's applied context. Sometimes you've got to admit you've been played. | |
