The Bong Pong Case!

What an absolute mess of a case, it just shows to me how childish footballers of all ages can be to think that was remotely clever to say to someone even without the racial bit added (or not)!....

In my similar incident Player A allegedly called Player B a Black ****, and Player B said he'd called him a f*****g ****..... Either way they both went (OFFINABUS & VC), God knows how the FA sort this crap out at my minor level, its one word against another, who do you believe!???

Neither.

I'm wary of siding with one or the other as you're effectively endorsing someone's version of 'truth', so either we're agreeing someone's a racist or someone is maliciously making a racial complaint.

I hope I never have to deal with that scenario though. I think the FA did the right thing here, just declare it not proven given the lack of evidence and try and move on?
