No problem at all with this as long as Broon replaces him with another full back and not another centre half. Agree with Funster about the need for whoever comes into have pace as well.

Edit: because I am a complete tit who does not read things properly.
Think the main reason behind them not appealing is currently ban will only cover two EPL games against Stoke and Bolton while the rest of the games will be FA and League cup. If they appealed could well mean him missing games against the bigger sides if they failed.
Wonder why he does not want to reveal what the punishment could be? Maybe not wanting to creat a precident for when HRMC put the Rangers into the same boat?

Will be stunned if we keep even one of them. Expect all three to be gone by the summer.
Would love to see us take at least one full back (not David McNamee) a winger and creative central mid. Would like to see Mackie Magennis and McArdle shipped out. However as been suggested I fully expect them to string us along all January with stories about the return of Russell Anderson before eventually signing nobody.
Do not be rediculous why would we want a wide player who creates chances and scores goals. Much better getting in another central defender.
Joking aside would expect Hayes to move south when his contract with expires with Caley. Would love to see him at Aberdeen but suspect we have missed the chance of getting him.

Will be very surprised if Arnason stays. His contract should have been extended long before now but yet again despite Brown saying he would not let things drag we find ourselves in the situation of our players being able to speak to other in clubs in only 6 days and the Dons not having made them any offers.
Saw this guy play for Sligo against St Pats back in May and he looked a decent player. More mobile than Fallon I would say and more of a footballer than the ex goalie or Mackie.
Fees were brought in to prevent clubs appealing decisions even when they knew they had no chance of winning just to delay suspensions. You get the money back if the appeal is successful I believe.
As I said previously SFA set a precident when they said contact on Aluko was minimal and not enough to justify Aluko going down. Pawlet was similar situation. He did make the contact look a lot worse than it was and therefore is guilty of simulation. I just hope we see this applied to all the other teams in the league and we see an end to players throwing themselves to the ground at the slightest touch. Not holding my breath.
