The problem as ever with the FA (lets face it, this "independent" panel is anything but) is there is never any rhyme and rhythm with the punishments. The numbers are seemingly pulled out of thin air and based on a whim.
They need to sort out their procedures, sort out their ridiculous rules regarding retrospective punishment and then maybe people will have a bit more confidence in what they do. But they won't.

No this how it works.Didn't Paul Davis get 9 games for breaking Cockrill's jaw?

A bite is 3 games
A punch is also 3 games
If the bite is prolongued however, you get 3 games for each second of the bite and then add 1 on top of that for the action itself.
If you punch someone and break something you get 3 times the punishment plus 1 on top for the action, but you also get credit for a good shot and thus take 1 away for accuracy.
Kungfu kicks are 8 months.
Jeez, it's not rocket science
On a serious note, Suarez is a pr*ck and who cares if he gets a big ban...he's always getting himself in trouble by doing dodgy things, barely a game goes by where he doesn't kick or elbow someone.
He's done it before and got a long ban and yet is too thick to realise that if he does it again another ban will come his way, got no sympathy for the guy.
Evra's arm joke the other day was great though

I don't think a 10 game ban is OTT tbh.
The last 4 games of this season are irrelevant as they mean nothing to Liverpool so for me they don't really count as much of a punishment to LFC. I suppose Suaraz missing out on the golden boot is a punishment but he was never going to win that anyway seeing as RVP is playing Arsenal next weekend.
So Suarez really only misses 5 games of competitive, meaningful matches at the beginning of next season.
That's fair enough.
Suarez is nuts. He's bitten a fellow player not once but twice. He's mental and needs to be punished.
And so it should. Repeat offenders should be more severely punished just like repeat criminals are.
lol was our very own Gazidis part of this "Independent" panel that decided Suarez's fate?

Ridiculous.
The more incompetent you are the more you are going to get rewarded for it. That's how it works in the world of talkers and backslappers.
