Behaviour, i presume you've never had a typo.
And the relevance was that we had been discussing players behaviour. Which if you'd read the whole conversation instead of wanting to look clever you would have seen.

I see that Brazil are launching an appeal to get Thiago Silva's yellow card wiped off! The fact that he deliberately strolled in front of the keeper, stopped a quick attack and then lumped the ball into the net for good measure isn't worthy of a yellow!?!
While they're at it, I know, let Brazil choose the ref, in fact, make Pele the man in the middle. Also, let Brazil postpone the match until Neymar's fit. Could also reduce the size of Brazil's goal by 50% and finally, let them tackle how they want, sliding in from behind & elbowing...no, wait, they are already doing the latter.

Yeah I saw this earlier. Absolute madness if FIFA reverse the decision, wouldn't be surprising though.
As much as a joke FIFA are. I don't remember them overturning too many incorrect reds. Think they only do it in case of mistaken identity. I'd be astonished if FIFA entertained the idea.
As much as FIFA seem to be doing everything possible to let Brazil win, they won't do anything. It means any othe players suspended for the semi's would need to be reinstated too

Chris Woods and Dave Bessant, apparently. I've just watched Saint Gary on the BBC who has just admitted it was his fault Shilts didn't get near any of the penatlies but got the direction right each time. He suggested to Shilts that he wait until the ball was kicked then dive???????? What a berk. No wonder the ball was in the back of the net each time.

While I think Brazil have been getting away with far more than any other team I don't actually believe FIFA have instructed refs to make sure they win even although it looks that way at times (I know that's not what you're saying btw). They do appear to be getting a lot more leeway than other teams. If the yellow card gets rescinded then take it as read that my belief has changed.
They just might postpone kick off for a wee while.........it wouldn't be the first time they've had that benefit accorded to them (4or 5 weeks might be stretching it though).
I hope the Germans destroy them in the semi and Argentina do the same to the Dutch. Mind you it would be sweet to see the Argies sing 'Brasil decime que se siente' while turning them over in their own back yard as well.

So half the population want the rivalry of Brazil v Argentina in the final, half want the equally fierce rivalry of the Dutch against the Germans and the other half want an intercontinental affair with A.N South America team V A.N European team...
So who's it going to be?
I'm going Germany v Argentina

Since when were teams allowed to appeal a yellow card ?
Is it a new rule for Brazil in a World Cup being held in Brazil

The fact FIFA are even considering the appeal and not telling them to F right off just shows how dodgy FIFA is.
Seems like they are looking for a way to help them out.

What was the grounds of the yellow?

I'm sorry Papas, I can't see what those symbols are meant to be.
Possibly a settings issue on my PC?
