I see that nice Mr Bowyer has been suspended from tonight's match plus the next two Euro games. The reason? For stamping. Sort of poetic justice, if you ask me.

I agree with the punishment but not the way its been done - mind you perhaps they have got it right. Only offer of appeal before tonight was a telephone conference - tee hee.

What actually p!$$es me off more than anything else is how Boyer seems to be made out as the persecuted party. "If only Ian Bowyer had been available, it could have been a lot different". Er well, excuse me, but due to circumstances out of his control (believe that if you're gullible will), he has been unable to travel to away games in the CL this season. SO if Leeds are so bliddy great without him (well, I mean, they are, aren't they??) why do they need him in the semi.

I'll leave it to Clarky to add the closing comment.

IMHO the biggest problem with Bowyer's banning is the fact that it will give David O'Lordy yet more reasons to whinge about how everyone hates Leeds and how everyone is out to scupper them at every opportunity. Has he been having lesson from SAF or is he just working on perfecting the whinge-factor in readiness for taking over at OT.

The ranting of O'Lordy are also starting to really rub off on their supporters. I was listening to Alan Green's 606 on Sunday (well someone has to, I hate AG and usually switch off as soon as the tw@t comes on, but I was a 'captive audience' for the hour this week) and he had a Yorkie Pudding ringing in, and because someone dared to say something against 'the kids' he went almost appoplectic(sp?) and sounded as if he was gonna start crying any second.

Almost as laughable as the Makems when the 'Munchkin on the move' rumours start up......they do exactly the same thing and say that everyone is trying to undermine them because they 'are so good' - err, yeah really, get a reality check please.
