Sorry Accrington. I didn’t mean to tag you! Can’t change it.

I can't find any footage of the incident. I guess if he head butted a player, he deserves a ban.

But there's always the question of consistency and whether similar incidents involving other teams have been treated the same.

Stupid but more of a coming together as both players looked to be squaring up. Firpo definitely the worse of the two but the guy goes down like he’s been shot.

Three games harsh I think but it is Leeds after all.

looked like handbags mainly to me with the Millwall player deliberately exaggerating the contact which unfortunately Firpo did place his noggin feintly against his opponent but that is still deemed an aggressive act so the FA have gleefully used that aggressive intent law they have tucked up their sleeve to randomly throw out in our direction to justify a 3 game ban.... Utter Cants!!!

Is this the first time they’ve done this retrospectively outside the PL?

If so it’s a huge precedent to set and fans will be watching very closely in the future.

VAR without VAR!

At least we can rely o good old Byram...

The other player made a meal of it...clown.

Millwall have done us over - we really are mugs.

Good one stoopo, var without var.
They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one. Junior's just walks into the scoundrel.

This happens all the time. Long before VAR.

The controversy is that it still actually happens in the Prem despite them having VAR.

It was a stupid thing to do.

Tried & sentenced within 3 days?

Unlikely this would have been as quick for anyone else.

It’s a pathetic decision. 2 grown guys barely touching each other with literally no injuries. Retrospective action taken.

Contrast that with a really poor challenge by Watford player on Ramazani who’s lost his trade for months & nothing.

Just makes literally no sense at all to me.

Violent ‘intent’ …… jeez 🙄 how easily were hurt these days 🙄🙄

Remember Canos on Alioski? No action. At the end of the very same match Pontus said "sh 1t" in an interview and got a ban.

Many Leeds fans scoff at the idea we're dealt with harsher than others, but to be honest the evidence is out there.

Acting the victim may make us feel better, but let’s be real - any other club would have received the same punishment. There’s only one person to blame for this predicament and that’s Firpo. And yes, if it had been the other way round, our players would have overreacted in exactly the same way as the Millwall player.
As the season’s progressing, the off-the-field excuses and bad-luck whinges are once again surfacing. We are where we are because of on-field performances, so please let’s stop blaming outside influences.

There's a good chance this won't unduly affect us anyway. In fact it may prove a blessing in disguise if Schmidt is given an opportunity.

But I feel if this wasn't us, there would be a full investigation before jumping in with a three game ban.

This is ridiculous the fa screw Leeds to the wall every chance they get .The club were fined 200000 for spygate but no rule was broken.I think they Leeds football club should take on fa in court .Enough is enough.

Thought Millwall were ard? They were a bunch of fairies who put on a flashing light show pre match.

Better that one of the games has been against QPR if you take the pragmatic view of taking this hit….
