Messi has three months to ponder the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.
He is usually the model of good behaviour on the football field . He has received only 2 red card in his entire international career and the second red card was a pretty dumb red card decision anyway.
And now he’s been given a 3 month ban from International Football because he said that there was corruption at the highest level in South American football.
With Blatter and Platini languishing in some dungeon somewhere for corruption its a bit hard to understand why CONMEBOL should be so scandalised by Messi’s allegations that they decided to punish him with a three month ban.
Maybe they should go looking for those skeletons rattling in the cupboard instead.
Its really quite absolutely unecessarily harsh and absolute rubbish.
Signs of our times.
