Man U’s next league game……Leeds (a)!!
VIOLENT CONDUCT - https://www.thefa.com/football-rules...ct%20is%20made.
Violent conduct is when a player uses or attempts to use excessive force or brutality against an opponent when not challenging for the ball, or against a team-mate, team official, match official, spectator or any other person, regardless of whether contact is made.
In addition, a player who, when not challenging for the ball, deliberately strikes an opponent or any other person on the head or face with the hand or arm, is guilty of violent conduct unless the force used was negligible.

The FRA (Football Regulatory Authority) has now given its approval so that The FA will be able to consider retrospective action in the two following situations, in addition to those already within the existing charging policy:
firstly, for acts of violent conduct that occur secondarily to a challenge for the ball;
and secondly, in off-the-ball incidents where one or more match official did see the players coming together, but the match officials’ view was such that none of them had the opportunity to make a decision on an act of misconduct that took place within that coming together.
This policy adjustment will be implemented in the Premier League, Football League and Football Conference (National Division) from 22 November, immediately following the international break. The FA has contacted clubs in these leagues to inform them of the impending change.
FA Director of Governance Darren Bailey said: "This enables The FA to consider acts of violent conduct, like an elbow or a stamp, which have occurred after a challenge for the ball or coming together of players.
"It is sometimes difficult for officials to see such incidents, as they are often concentrating solely on the challenge for possession of the ball, and we are mindful of this. Also, where off-the-ball incidents are concerned, the policy adjustment will allow action to be taken where an act of misconduct could not have been seen by the match officials, even though they may have seen some part of the players coming together.
"This is an important step forward for the game and provides an appropriate level of discretion for The FA to consider action. However, we remain of the view that the best outcome for all is that referees are able to make correct judgements on the day to benefit the teams involved."
Sadly I can't find any info on the length of penalty for retrospective action.
I can't find any info on the punishments for violent conduct. The precise amount of game ban doesn't appear to written down. I guess it's subjective by committee.
Once again it appears the rules are open to interpretation which basically means the rules only apply to those clubs that the FA/EPL deem worthy of punishment.
Leeds have to put in a complaint for that disgusting act of violence and ensure that the filthy little cheat is punished to the full extent of the rules.
