Respect, You want Respect?

If your going to preach about something, then you'd better make sure your are not a hypocrite. You can't expect someone to respect you if you show no example of leadership, It just doesn't work, its why Gordon Brown never made a good Prime Minister, no one respected him and he didn't have a good enough attitude for the job. But JFK had charisma, enthusiasm and he wasn't but ugly, so people respected and didn't write him off in an instant.

In some sort of way that links to my point, the FA and the Football League do not warrant respect with the constant courage less decisions they consistently continue to make, this whole QPR situation should have been settled long ago.

The man in question, Alejandro Faurlin didn't even sign this season, he joined the club in 2009. The Football League just have themselves to blame in this situation, they claimed the reason that they didn't give QPR a points deduction was that it was too late in the season for them to act because of the impending playoff fixtures that could not be rescheduled. Well who's fault is that.

The Football League are responsible for the age that it has taken them to deal with this, and they don't even take proper action, and £875,000 for one of the richest teams in England is pittance. There should have been a points deduction and it should have been last year, you can't have one rule for West Ham and one for QPR just because it suits you better if you just sweep it under the carpet.

No wonder that no one respects them, they don't deserve respect, they never use their powers to rescind red cards that are blatantly not even yellows and they don't hand them out when they are deserved, yet the insist on fining Ian Holloway for fielding a weakened team, even though Wenger does it in the Carling Cup and Ferguson rotates his squad every week, the FA cannot judge the quality of Holloway's team when they have said that he can have a 25 man squad and play anyone of them.

 When you ask for respect the first rule is don't contradict yourself (not that there's a rulebook), but if there was the FA obviously haven't read their it.
