Rumour has it Tiago is getting an 8 match ban.
Absolute ****ing joke. As much as we all hate coasties, Vukovic must be absolutely ropable with his 12 months on the sideline if it's a farcical 8 weeks for a Sydney FC player.
Disc race.

Only 8 weeks for intentionally grabbing a referee when he is in the process of making a ruling. As I've said the referee is not there to be physical with the players, he's there to enforce the laws of the game, not to be grabbed.
Should be at least 9 months, given Vukovic was given 15 months (6 suspended).
Middleby Gone
Lawrie Out
8 games with an additional 4 suspended.
pathetic.
we should do a "united we stand for our brothers banned" when we play perth.
now it appears rippign a flare is worse than striking a referee.
where we drinking at lads?
For a start people get some perspective.
Tiago is a ****ing legend for some of the crazy shit he done when at the Jets. (Who will ever forget him punching on at Weston that night with Phoenix or the water bottle thing at the SFS the other year???)
Vukovic on the other hand is nothing more then a dirty Gypo bastard.
Punishment difference seems pretty ****ing fair in my eyes
But isn't Ben Williams a "relatively" new ref to the league? Eg he's more likely to have reffed us during the last few years where our Win/Loss ratio is much worse than the early years / championship seasons?
In all honesty I think looking at refs for win / loss is a total cop out, it's very rare that a ref will win or lose you a game, generally this will be on a single call (red card / pen etc) that may be wrong. Even in these circumstances you can have always done things to avoid getting in that position, eg score goals.
Also if a ref is actively biasing against a team during a game it's generally because dick head players don't keep their mouth shut and play the game.
From memory he was the bloke who failed to send off Zads 15 secs in and ****ed up a host of other decisions in the F3 derby last year we won.
I think every time after this we got him last season we got some form of karma like payback from him
