Sorry, have to agree with rogues here, if he pleaded not guilty and was found not guilty, whats the problem? if he'd been found guilty and only got a fine, then there'd be an issue!
It's nothing to do with the incident at all. He could have murdered several children and would escape a ban because it's WEMBERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLEEYYYYYYYYYY this weekend.
Everyone knows this, but we shouldn't complain.
A - Because we don't get into finals anymore
B - Because we've benefited from similar leniency in the past. I remember Newlove decapitating a Warrington player once the week before a Cup Final and crying to my Dad that we'd lose because he wouldn't be playing. He laughed and said, "They won't ban him from Wembley lad".
