Leigh, thanx for dealing with this incident so promptly and, I believe, correctly.
To the Sunderland Captain, You have taken the punishment well and for that, you deserve credit.
To Chipfireball, my apologies for some of my comments as I was a little upset at the time. Hope we can shake hands on it one day (As a Baggie, I am used to being put down...as a Hartlepool fan, I am sure you are too !)
I would just like to add though that you seem to be missing the point here. Telling your mates at a home game what you have is a little different to doing it in a team environment. Also, I have not "cheated" on facebook.....all i do is list the players on my team who have signed up on that night.
To APAT, why not add a rule that for Team games "No chat revealing what you may or may not be holding is allowed until after the hand is completed"...would that not solve the problem ?
