People have committed suicide over homophobia. Nobody dies from having their glasses pulled off. Most hold you in high regard on here, and rightly so, but you’ve embarrassed yourself here. |  | |  |

He’s got previous in making such comments and so that must have counted against him. Plus he has also served a ban for making offensive comments to a Rochdale player (no idea what type of offensive comment he made). So that also counted against hi.
All in all he would have missed 24 matches in his career for not being able to keep his mouth shout.
Edit. This article explains what he said to a Rochdale player. Warning - to be absolutely clear the article contains anti-Irish language.

How have I embarrassed myself? For saying that Cunha’s ban should’ve been longer? I did say I wasn’t saying Finley should’ve had less. |  |

You can see why Joey Barton thought so highly of him he signed him for both Fleetwood and Bristol Rovers. Seems like an absolute bell whiff of a bloke. |  | | |

I think you’ve taken the OP the wrong way. I read it that the 13 game ban was justified, but it showed that the FA has the power to impose more severe sanctions, but chose not to against the Wolves player. |  | | |

The embarrassed yourself bit was overly harsh but the bit that preceded it was, if anything, overly generous innit*

At worst Hoppy's OP is clumsy and open to misinterpretation. I don't think it warranted the two footed tackle here - you could have just politely explained your critique.
I can see that if you read it a certain way it does imply a comparison between the two offences, but don't think that's intended to demean one over the other. | |

Thats okay then.
Presumably the fellow mentioned in the OP can apologise and then be let off completely? | | | |

I agree Hoppy. I’m also not saying it shouldn’t have been a 13 game ban. Absolutely he deserves a lengthy punishment.
And also Cunha seems to have got off lightly for persistent aggressive behaviour.
Both things can be true at the same time. [Post edited 26 Apr 7:55]

Agree but where do you go next though if you've already issued the same player an 8 game ban? That's quite defiant of the player though having served 8 games and to just do it again. Maybe he has tourettes. |  |
