Poor old Ronaldo has started off his new season by getting banished to the bench for five games.This for pushing the referee.
Ronaldo picked up two bookings from referee Ricardo De Burgos Bengoetxea in the game against Barcelona.The first one was for taking of his shirt to display his well muscled torso after scoring a pretty brilliant goal.The goal was brilliant,the taking off of the shirt to get a yellow card was dumb.He took dumbness to the next level by then picking up a second yellow for diving.
And then he took it to a 5 match ban level of dumbness by then pushing the ref when he got his marching orders.
Graham Poll( whom we have not heard from for a while ) says that he should have got the full 12 game ban.
