I don't know why he contested the charge. Poor advised - was pretty clear cut.

Think a one week ban would have been sufficient. Perhaps harsh on him, as others probably haven't been punished before for similar incidents, but an example needed making to clamp down on it. On the BBC podcast though they said the entry level offence carries a 2 week suspension, and maybe due to previous they couldn't reduce it.

Hopefully this will be of comfort to referees so they know that they can penalise players probably in future and will receive backing. I wonder if the post match assessor told Karl that he shouldn't have been so lenient

Agreed, T-Bone. He should have pleaded guilty and apologised. I don't know if his previous would have overridden that at all but contesting it guaranteed the worst outcome.

I think you don't get mitigation if you contest it - contrition and apology typically gets you half off, but you can't show those while you're going "but I didn't do it, guv"

I always like a post that is backed up with evidence

He's put a very odd post of Instagram about his ban. Not sure how to link to Instagram

Here us a link but it looks like you can’t see what was written alongside the photo unless logged in to Instagram.

It's a long-winded, borderline hippie incantation about realising, at the age of 27, that he is responsible for his own actions.

I don't need to be receiving PMs. 
I may take a bit of a break from this site for a few weeks.

Please don't you are one of the sensible ones (although I'm not sure if an endorsement from me is much to be grateful for!).

I believe under Personal Messages you can choose  who you can receive messages from.

I agree. In addition, have you contacted DOK about this?

It may have been a pm from DOK.

Yes I get those occasionally from him that must be obeyed I find them fairly heavy handed as well.
