NO END IN SIGHT FOR KEANE

Keane's deadline for appealing against his 5 match ban expires today and all the reports indicate that he won't bother. Possibly because he is still weeks away from fitness, one snout dismissing all talk of an appearance against Leverkusen.

And what other reason could there be for allowing the blatant double standards that allows Vieira to pick the starting date of his own ban while Keane's commences after a totally arbitrary 20 days.
