Its a shame that the football authoritys dont act like the main men in Rugby League...
Wigan's Terry Newton will spend even more time on the sidelines after losing his appeal against a 10-match ban.
The hooker is now suspended until 15 April, 2006 following the challenges on Lee Gilmour and Sean Long in the Super League clash with St Helens.
That means the 26-year-old
will miss 10 league and cup games next season.
Basically he was as guilty as sin , so he appealed anyway therefore wasting everyones time , so what do the rugby league do ? Yes they increased his ban
