There was certainly a minor maul and the charge is fair enough.
Showed team spirit but not something I like to see at Spurs.
Mason pushed Benteke over the edge and the lads piled in when he retaliated.
Handbags really.
What's the usual penalty for this kind of thing?
It's a bit much when you have to answer your own questions.Just looked it up: £20,000 for each team.

Yes that's what I mean by Mason pushed him over the edge.Bentake was already barging and lashing when Mason retaliated.
It was the only thing that actually livened up a pretty dull match and created the dramatic end. Not saying what the players did was good but the EPL is falling behind a lot of leagues and the only thing it has left is a bit of passion. However, the way clubs treat fans, the 39th game and the lack of home grown talent in this country is rapidly removing that passion. Now you get a £20k fine for what - handbags.
We don't have a 39th Game and Fifa or UEFA have pretty much said its not going to allow it. Axe to grind much?
Where did I say the FA wanted the 39th game?Yep. It's the Premier League who want the 39th Game to be introduced, not the FA.

I didn't bring up the FA - read the post!!! I said the EPL was losing it's passion and the handbags created a bit of passion in a dull match - I MENTIONED THE EPL - NOT THE FAWell, this issue is re: the FA, so I dont so why you'd bring up the 39th game in relation to it if you knew they had nothing to do with it...
