Mourinho handed a suspended one-match stadium ban, and a £50,000 fine By FA


The Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has been handed a suspended one-match stadium ban, and a £50,000 fine, for comments made after Chelsea's defeat toSouthampton, in which he criticised the officials for not awarding his side a penalty.
Mourinho claimed that referees were "afraid to give decisions to Chelsea" after seeing his side beaten 3-1, and effectively dared the Football Association to issue him with a punishment. 
He said: "The result 1-1 is a huge penalty and once more we don't get and a penalty is a crucial moment in the game with the result at 1-1, and I repeat that if FA wants to punish me they can punish me, they don't punish other managers but they punish me, it's not a problem for me."
Mourinho has now been given a suspended ban after admitting to a charge of breaching FA rules, with the governing body warning the Portuguese that the suspension will be invoked if he is punished for a similar breach again. 
A statement from the FA read: "Jose Mourinho has been given a suspended one-match stadium ban and fined £50,000 after he admitted a breach of FA Rules in relation to post-match media comments.
"The Chelsea manager was charged for misconduct following the game against Southampton on Saturday 3 October 2015.
"It was alleged his remarks constituted improper conduct in that they alleged and/or implied bias on the part of a match official or match officials and/or brought the game into disrepute.
"Mr Mourinho's suspended stadium ban will be immediately invoked should he be found by an Independent Regulatory Commission to have committed a further breach of FA Rule E3 for any comment or statement to or through the media before 13 October 2016."

BUHARI: TURNING APPOINTMENTS INTO DISAPPOINTMENTS

   By Jaafar Jaafar Ponder over this Hausa proverb: “sawun keke ba’a gane gabanka”, which roughly translates to “a bicycle’s contact patch does not tell where it comes from or where it heads to”, and see how it aptly describes Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari. Bearing in mind the current realities in our polity, how would you, in your wildest dream, think the Secretary to the Government of the Federation will come from the North? The very North that has a President, a Senate President, a Speaker, a Head of Service, a Chief of Staff, a Chief Justice, and what not? While Mr. President is likened to the proverbial “sawun keke”, the pigmentation of his appointments may be likened to “birgimar hankaka”, literally meaning the wallow of a pied crow. When a pied crow wallows, the Hausa say, you will see both the white patch on its gullet and the black plumage that covers most of the bird’s body. In the appointment of the GMD of NNPC, President Buhari showed Nigeria...
