| If Davis admitted the charge then there's not much wrong is there? 16:59 - Mar 13 with 1636 views | Roburmsyenna | however slight, he did what he did, has admitted it and I guess the ban is normal and what is expected for the offence. Yes ot stinks, looks harsh and their player clearly over reacted l, but he's admitted it end of. |  |

He wasn’t happy with the length of the ban, for a hair pull 3 games is correct. The 3 games for the push does seem excessive and must be why he’s unhappy and why Ashton is incensed. |  |

I assumed he must have admitted it because the footage is totally inconclusive. Unreal if this is true. |  |

Feck it, I’ll have to go and watch it again on a big screen now. I didn’t notice a stamp watching on my phone. |  |

Promotion push potentially derailed by argument over hair pull. Arf! |  |

Seems strange they’d argue the case then as that’s a 3 game ban every time. Would Davis have just been advised to accept it as denying it could’ve made it worse? |  |

He admitted the charge didn’t he? The charge was a push and hair pulling. Presumably this was all captured on camera anyway … so can’t really see what we are complaining about. |  | |  |

I'm surprised the other player hasn't been charged for his part in the incident as he clearly kicks out. Will be interesting to read the written reasons when they're released. |  | |  |

The resulting action suggests that has to be the reason for the decision - nothing to do with the petulant antics thereafter From the video evidence we have all seen it does look like his head is pulled back as he falls initially - but it is far from "beyond all reasonable doubt" on the video we have seen But also from the footage it looks like Leif is just looking at the flight of the ball and there is an argument that he had no idea what he was getting hold of as he was looking to hand off the player - it could easily have been simulation, although those in the USBR suggest otherwise. I can only think that the club were advised to fess up to ease the process and there was sufficient uncertainty in the footage and lack of intent from Davis that this would be mitigation in reducing the scale of punishment. Which is why Ashton is now going off on one - and I think with some cause |  | |  |

If thats the result there's really no point in admitting anything anymore... could an appeal delay the ban... surely theres grounds on length of ban so its no increased? |  | |  |

That is the natural conclusion you would have to draw - no point in entering a plea We actually don’t want the punishment delayed though! |  | |  |

Although with Busby entirely predictable. The bigger story should be that he didn’t cock up at Bristol away. |  |

I’m not sure you can second guess it. We’ve got Millwall and Birmingham up after Wednesday. Wall is a 6 pointer. And we’ll have Kipre (def) and Matusiwa (likely) out for that one. Boro is the biggest one, but Wall is second. |  |

Always remember Tony Vaughan many years back had a torrid game, think we were losing anyway, this guy he'd been marking must have been winding him up all game, and prob 80th-90th minute Tony took him out towards Churchmans end with the kind of tackle thesedays probably get banned for 6 games now, absolutely pole axed him Tony got up from his tackle and just carried on walking off the pitch, didnt look back, didn't wait for the ref who was huffing and puffing running after him to show him a red card, just went yeah I knew what I was doing. Now thats the way to take a red card. LOL Don't think Burley was impressed though |  | |  |

Seen Leicester fans calling it a shove, Sky say a stamp, others a hair pull…. And the video/s confirm none of that |  |
