Quote: atomic "But the disciplinary panel didn't see it the same way as you put it for Armstrong! Did they!
Summary of CM's submissions on the appropriate sanction.....Head butt upper chest area of opponent-light contact-concede may have been some provocation.
Summary of Player's submissions on the appropriate sanction.....Good record. Not a malicious player.
Reasons for Decision...In deciding the appropriate sanction the tribunal accept this is not the more serious of head butts .Contact was not significant but was made with opponent. In deciding the appropriate sanction the tribunal take into account the player’s good previous record and in this instance feel that a 1 match suspension and £100 fine are appropriate.
Fails to mention that Saltonstall gave Armstrong a wink,as he knew he had just sold him a red GFB..'"
Sorry, I was talking about the Haggerty incident when i mentioned the Disciplinary panel although saying there may have been some provocation is quite ambiguous.
