Quote Rommel="Rommel"Is he allowed to plead guilty and cop a one match ban
'"
Well, he will be allowed to enter an early guilty plea because he hasn't been sent off or banned before - at all, I don't think. He's an idiot rather than a dirty player. That doesn't excuse him - I never excuse Meli! - but he has no record of this kind of play. The red card was definitely the right decision.
How long a ban he serves will depend on what he's charged with. His charge will probably be a dangerous tackle, which it definitely was.
