Missed Ivanovic punch in lead up to Chelsea winner.

Matt Law from the Express on Twitter:

"Ivanovic appeal is very much a legal argument. He admits contact but denies violent intent. FA have to decide whether intent can be proved"

Astounding. I'm not sure what Chelsea are playing at here as they have 0% chance of winning the appeal.

Basically, as with the John Terry incident, Chelsea feel there is a loophole whereby there is no TV coverage to bring punishment, therefore the challenge.

What? We've all seen it, and if we have, there's no way the FA can deny having seen it. So what exactly is left to establish? Intent? It's not some careless remark whispered through cupped hands, it's Ivanovic elbowing some poor Wigan bloke in the gut.
 
He won't get off, and if the appeal is considered frivolous, an additional game's ban - here's hoping!

I'm trying to see it from the sense of Ivanovic getting off, they must feel the TV evidence doesn't show the actual blow, and could be explained as a push to gain advantage on the rush to the Chelsea goal.

As John Terry is hoping the FA has no such other TV angles to find him guilty

With their reserve defence of (Boswinga Luiz Cahill Bertrand) and our hoofing clowns (Walker Nelson King BAE) this could be a high scoring semi final.

Get some bets on of at least 3 goals.

Stat from last week was that we have scored 4 goals from our last 100 chances created.

I now we are scoring too little, but stats can be misleading. For example each and every of Bales hope-and-hammer shots from 20-50 yards out over the last games count as "chances created". Each and every of Kabouls headers sailing 3 yards over the bar count. Each and every of Rafas freekicks in the wall. Each and every of Ade's curiously inctricate finishes like against Sunderland, where he could head a cross ever so easily in from 2.5 yards but instead made such a soft, cushioned impact it barely trickled to the defender who cleared it on the line.

Also, we don't create a whole lot open chances. How much did we create against Norwich from wide open chances ?

True enough. But if you look at pure goals per game we are way down on what we doing.
At the start of the season we had a run of 11 games in the league were we scored 2 or more goals in every game.
Currently we have only scored 2 or more goals in 1 game in the last 7 league games.

There is absolutely no way he can surely? The guy is on video punching Maloney. What more evidence would they need?

In my opinion, completely pointless appeal and hopefully results in and extra game ban.

There is no such thing as a frivolous appeal anymore resulting in an extra game ban. That rule went 3 years ago so basically it doesn't matter that he's appealing it.
 
Can't provide a link but just know it to be true. Remember when the kompany ban was being discussed a journo on talksport corrected Andy Gray that the frivolous appeal ruling went 3 years ago.

I'll flip the question onto you, can you provide a link to any player that has received an extra game ban for a frivolous appeal?
 
This is almost as bizarre as every other game with English Martyrs FC, where the honourable gentlemen Gerrard and Adams poleaxe anyone getting into their immediate vicinity with no mention from the media.

I remember Gerrard going into a two footer in an old Everton derby, stamping a prone defender (that scottish leftback) straight on in the chest with the ball having been cleared yards away, the SKY commentators were creaming themselves in praise for the "commitment" and "dedication" and stuff.

C*nts.

You mean since the start of the 2009/10 season?
