he's tried to con the ref, by pulling down Jo. too many times has terry got away with stuff - looks like he got away with this also.
carvalho would never have made cover - so for me its a red card
did FA give him yellow card instead - NO, just took off the red one and he's left with a clean record
Fu*king FA. so much disparity

It's not the point of whether or not he deserved a straight red or not!
The fact is there have been other players over the years that have not deserved sent off appealed and nothing changed.
The fact is if it was a player from Stoke or Boro or some team like that the ban would have stood.
But oh no it was the england captain John Terry who plays for moneybags Chelsea.Usually the authorities stand by their decision as they dont like to undermine the refs..not in this case though and the reason is because of who the player is,its no reflection of the offence IMO!

If the ref had sent him off for a professional foul i dont think it would of be rescinded - the ref 
up by saying it was for violent conduct .

last year a boro player was given an extra game ban for a frivolous appeal and this kunt gets away with a professional foul. you have to question whether carvhalio would have got back, if terry was confident of this he wouldn't have needed the sh*t rugby tackle
whatever the rights or wrongs this is a disgrace as england captain

You dont mind rugby tackles on a football pitch, however poorly executed?
it wasnt a rugby tackle.
it was not a red card offense.

oh, and what's the relavance to LFC?

Sorry to rub you the wrong way Redman, I thought it was ok to post such a question as I was interested in what you lot on here would think of this situation.
Besides, there's polls about "Fifa and PES", "Who will win La Liga", "Are pompey a big club" and "Who would you like to lose (mancs or chavs)".
So I reckoned it would be fine.

It's not in the wrong place as far as I can tell: it's in "Football Related Polls" and it's football related. We're good.

Halsey said that he sent Terry off because he felt the foul was "excessive, cynical and serious foul play".

I voted yes. It wasnt a red card offence, it was yellow at the most. I can see why people are against the decision though. If these decisions are to be looked at in the future and equality is given to every unfair red card then surely thats a good thing? I doubt though, like many on here that will happen.

Terrys' attempted "tackle" was something you might see on a Rugby pitch. Certainly not in the spirit of the game and bringing a player down by wrapping your arm around their waist as they run past you has no place in football , it may not currently be deemed a red card offence but IMO it should be.

Red Card..... no question.... and to rescind it the way that it has, reeks of favouritism on the part of the FA

the commentators were licking his balls during the match. fcuking idiots. ''oh they sent off england captain'' ''england captain this'' ''england captain that''. i was p!ssed beyond words. and he gets away with it all. it was a red card. he knew what he was doing. it was cynical. in fact he should be fined too.
