Quote: rollin thunder "Bentley 3 matches. All rest in the clear.
Is that 10 games banned for Bentley this year now. That will be 10 from 17 possible fixtures when current ban up.1 red 2 yellows
In fairness I think the lad's been badly done to on this one. The slow motion and stills show that he hit him across the chest and I've yet to see anything that conclusively shows he contacted the head at all. We, and especially Bentley, are being judged by different standards to some others. Look at the lack of lengthy bans for serial offender Sironen at Saints, or the softly softly approach with Hurrell's regular late hits and lack of any action at all against Percival for head shots. I'm not putting my tinfoil hat on or anything, but we've had players banned when other players have committed directly comparable offences and got nothing. On this particular occasion it doesn't seem to me that they've even looked at the evidence.
