The thing that pees me off about the whole disciplinary system is that it punishes the fans / club - not the player. Sadly most players have little loyalty to either so have no incentive or reason to behave in the first place. Whilst spitting is clearly unacceptable I do question how a leg breaking/career ending tackle warrants 3 games whilst a bit of spit (as disgusting as it is) demands 6.

On a game connected observation ....they paid 1 million quid for THAT pitch ... I’d demand a refund ! ... and ring the Shrewsbury groundskeeper up !
