The issue with the FA is that if they went ahead with their own hearing Terry's legal team would not let him participate because you can not risk having him say something that will come back to haunt him in the criminal case. In a way that leaves the FA with not much to do. That turns out to be a blessing for Chelsea as they get the player for the rest of the season as they fight for a CL spot where Liverpool lost its top striker for 8 games.
As an Arsenal supporter I thought this w/e went rather well as everyone around us dropped points. Will be interesting to see if the return of Gervinho means Walcott goes to the bench (hopefully). The Mertsacker injury is worrisome. All in all I think the schedule does not favor us getting a fourth place finish.
