You forgot to mention the frail bit but otherwise spot on.
Sascha Riether Charged

I'm sure when I watched it, Fellaini was looking the other way when the stamp took place.
He was scuffling already.
He'd have gone ape sh!t if he'd actually seen it!
Genuinely surprised that the FA didn't find another loophole to tie their hands and hide behind. Seems there always used to be an excuse to not have to take any action.
It was a pretty disgusting stamp. The type Suarez would be proud of.
Whole situation kind of endeared me to Fellaini a bit. I love seeing that kind of United front.

Would the FA have acted the same way if a player from a big club was involved?
Anyone with a gif of the incident?
Well done FA.
Well done FA.
Stop with this kid bollocks. It doesn't matter who he stamped on.
It does if it was a woman. have you not seen the 50K thread?
Pretty much.
"thankfully the refs were sufficiently blind" is a stupid reason for taking action.
Not it terms of punishment no, but it just makes it even more pathetic.
It's irrelevant. He's a footballer playing at the highest level. He's not a child.
You can see where people are coming from when they think stamping on someone like Januzaj is more pathetic than stamping on Vidic, right?
Honestly, no.
Riether wouldn't have the balls to do something like that on someone like Vidic.
If Januzaj's old enough to play PL football then he's old enough to be kicked without people feeling sorry for him.
Nope. I think stamping is just as wrong whether its giggs, vidic or januzaj on the receiving end.
As a Manchester United fan I'm offended. How could they take so much time, I mean giving the red carpet to Moyes like they used to with SAF. 
It wasnt very nice.
Some of the outrage here is hilarious. Please tell me "Frail Kid" was a joke

A bit over the top, the 3 match ban will be enough.
It is stupid alright. In France things are better, whether the ref saw or didn't see the incident doesn't matter. There is panel that gives bans to dangerous acts committed by footballers.
That is a candidate for most over-emotive, sensationalist post of the season so far.His profile pic is him lunging wildly for the ball. How apt.
Some prick has already replied to that tweet with "should have stamped harder".
Strange.
Normally someone that thick would have written 'should of stamped harder.'
At least his grammar is solid.
In fairness, I and J are quite close on the keyboard.
Alright, 2 games it is!
Fair play to Riether for the apology though there's no excuse for what he did. Deserved the ban.
