And he could not prove his defense that there were any racial statements made. Also, Chelsea got fined more than Evra did in that situation. /Proper research.

Clearly the FA are out to get City. Basically, Adebayor has been fined about two days' wages (gasp) for nearly starting a riot. His "ban" is only activated if he does something stupid like this again, so as another poster said, it's useless. Neville was ecstatic when his team (he is club captain, remember) scored the winner and he ran down the touchline to celebrate it, then THOUGHT for a second and stopped and turned back. He did not stand there taunting the fans. The two incidents are not the same, so why should the punishment be? I think Ade got off lightly. Yes, the FA are inconsistent, but to say they favour United is pathetic and smacks of sheep-brained idiocy. United have also suffered from this inconsistency, as pointed out by Drabik. The "big four" probably do get the benefit of the doubt more often, but this sort of sensationalist conspiracy theory crap is almost painful to read.

Adebayor almost caused a riot (partly Arsenal fans fault). Of course people forget that Neville is not the only one to celebrate a goal in front of away fans in that game - Shay Given turned round to united fans to celebrate the equalizer. What about the Rio Ferdinand missing drugs test? A Manchester City player also missed a mandatory drugs test at about the same time, but was he banned for months and months and fined ridiculous amounts? No? Surely if the FA favours United then this is a bad decision? What about suspending Evra for 3 games for punching a Chelsea groundstaff, despite having no evidence whatsoever that Evra even threw a punch. People may believe the FA favour United, but thats probably just to cloud the fact that Manchester United are the most successful team in recent years. The reason is not the FA, it is Sir Alex Ferguson. How about you do proper research, and not write cliches with no evidence to back it up. How do the FA favour united?

Though Fowler did get suspended for his goal line snorting celebration, and the homophobic one ... so yeah, a Liverpool player getting suspended really does a lot to prove the point that ... wait what was your point?
