The rules are clear though.Isn't it a matter of fairness? Surely as a fan and member of society you champion what is fair? I don't see people trying to dodge the bullet, merely highlighting other cases of where double standards are at play.
It has been explained why Enzo for instance couldn't get banned by FA, it has been explained why Bentancur was facing a minimum of 6 games because of the format of his comments (they were caught on tape), it has been explained that the panel thought his argument that he was being sarcastic was weak as it was never mentioned in any of his apologies etc.
All of it has been explained in full so there are no double standards going on.
Bentancur made a racist comment, appealed that he wasn't being racist (after apologizing multiple times for making a racist comment) and has been banned for that comment within the rules that are there.
People need to stop this whataboutery, it's Bentancurs fault he got 6 games and his advisors fault for the extra game which was likely put on due to his very weak and contradictory appeal.
No point me commenting on it again as that's my view and others may differ which is fair enough go for it.
