Re: Is this fair?
Shows how corrupt the decision was;
A CARDIFF City season-ticket holder oversaw the successful appeal that rescued Darren Purse’s FA Cup final dream.
May 4 2008 by Mark Bloom, Wales On Sunday
Kieron O’Connor, a 54-year-old Football Association of Wales Council member, was chairman of the disciplinary panel that overturned Purse’s sending off at Burnley eight days ago, despite the fact he is a regular at Ninian Park.
While there is no suggestion of anything improper having influenced the decision-making process, eyebrows are certain to be raised in Portsmouth.
Their boss Harry Redknapp has already branded the outcome of the Purse appeal as “farcical”.
