Additional game for a frivolous appeal? Why not!!!! Because that would not be enough, I say an extra 3 for the appeal plus an extra 5 for matyring himself in the press and 5 more for not understanding the true outcome of the court case whilst conveniently ignoring the Judge's summing up. And 5 for Ashley Cole for being his bitch.

From the Evening Standard
John Terry guilty of racist language: Chelsea captain handed four-match ban and £220k fine
John Terry verdict: full statement from the Football Association
Four-match ban for Terry
John Terry found guilty by the FA
27 September 2012
John Terry has been banned for four matches and fined £220,000 after being found guilty of racially abusing QPR's Anton Ferdinand by a Football Association independent regulatory commission.
The Chelsea skipper denied the charge but the commission ruled that he was guilty of misconduct during Chelsea's Premier League defeat at QPR on October 23 last year.
The 31-year-old, who on Sunday announced his retirement from international football, can lodge an appeal against the panel's decision.
Terry's representatives, Elite Management, said in a statement released on his behalf: "Mr Terry is disappointed that the FA Regulatory Commission has reached a different conclusion to the clear not guilty verdict of a court of law.
"He has asked for the detailed written reasons of the decision and will consider them carefully before deciding whether to lodge an appeal."
Chelsea issued a statement that refused to condemn the FA's verdict.
"Chelsea Football Club notes and respects today's decision by the Football Association regarding John Terry," the statement read.
"We also recognise that John has the right to appeal that decision.
"It is therefore inappropriate for us to comment further on the matter at this time."
An FA statement said: "An independent regulatory commission has today found a charge of misconduct against John Terry proven and has issued a suspension for a period of four matches and a fine of £220,000, pending appeal.
"The Football Association charged Mr Terry on Friday 27 July 2012 with using abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour towards Queens Park Rangers' Anton Ferdinand and which included a reference to colour and/or race contrary to FA Rule E3[2] in relation to the Queens Park Rangers FC versus Chelsea FC fixture at Loftus Road on 23 October 2011.
"The charge was the result of The FA's long-standing investigation into this matter, which was placed on hold at the request of the Crown Prosecution Service and Mr Terry's representatives pending the outcome of the criminal trial.
"The decision of the Independent Regulatory Commission is as follows:
Mr Terry be suspended from all domestic club football until such time as Chelsea's First Team have completed four competitive matches Fined the sum of £220,000." "The independent regulatory commission will provide written reasons for its decision in due course. Mr Terry has the right to appeal the decision of the independent regulatory commission to an Appeal Board. An appeal must be lodged within 14 days from receipt of the written reasons for the decision.
"The penalty is suspended until after the outcome of any appeal, or the time for appealing expires, or should Mr Terry decide not to appeal. The reason for this is to ensure that the penalty does not take effect before any appeal so that Mr Terry has an effective right of appeal."
The case centred around an incident during Chelsea's Barclays Premier League defeat at QPR on October 23 last year when the pair clashed verbally on a number of occasions.
Terry was found not guilty in Westminster Magistrates Court in July of a racially-aggravated public order offence with the prosecution unable to prove he had called Ferdinand a "f****** black c***" as an insult.
Terry admitted using the words, but insisted he had only been repeating words he thought Ferdinand had accused him of saying.
Chelsea and England team-mate Ashley Cole gave evidence that helped exonerate Terry, telling the court: "We shouldn't be sitting here".
The FA's decision to press ahead with their own charges infuriated Terry to the extent that on the eve of the disciplinary hearing he announced he was quitting international football with immediate effect, saying his position was "untenable".
Terry's legal team had argued the governing body's own rules dictated that his acquittal in court meant the case could not proceed but the FA believed their charge was distinct from the court charge.
The panel who handed Liverpool striker Luis Suarez an eight-match ban when they found him guilty of racially abusing Manchester United defender Patrice Evra last season declared at that time that simply using racist language was enough to constitute a breach of FA rules.

He should have got banned for at least 8 games. However £220K. That is a big fine. Has any player ever been fined that amount before or even close to it?

This comment by Dan Roan of the BBC sums up the dilemma faced by the Chelsea bosses.
"it will be interesting to see what Chelsea will do. Will they suspend him, drop him or back him? The club have a zero tolerance policy towards racism."
They must be squirming. Don't you love it!!!

Joey B is going off on twitter. Example
Joseph Barton @joey7barton 12 games!!! By the FA's perverse reckoning, I'd of got less of a ban for racially abusing the Man City players than tickling them as I did.

Joey got 4 matches for the initial red and 4 each for the 2 additional offences. I have to say though that Terry should have got more than 4 matches, and 220000 is a joke considering what he is earning. Let's hope Chelsea do something about this, won't hold my breath though

More from Joey
4 games? A years worth of investigation, a four day FA hearing and only a 4 game ban? Suarez got 8 didn't he? WTF's going on...
and
Well I think that proves a lot. What an absolute farce. 12 games for violent conduct and only 4 for that. FA should be embarrassed #shambles
and
Had a vivid dream last night involving Terry, a roaring crowd and a firing squad. Ah, not the turnout I expected...

Ah well at least it's over and the people involved can move on with their careers. I was expecting at least a public execution after a year

I'm (obviously) glad he was found guilty. I'm (obviously) disappointed he didnt a 100 Year ban.
But basically after today, let's Move on - and concentrate on QPR...Because of the two clubs, probably QPR have suffered more from the John Terry Focus. Especially for the Players and people running the club
But of course, should there be any hint of an England reinstatement....

Apparently £220,000 is the highest fine of an individual that the FA have ever handed down.

Maybe. But that's probably a week's earning for Terry. Clubs impose bigger fines than that on their players - Such as QPR and Barton

They then get C.U.N.T. Cole to back up every single word of Terry's lies!!! & build an army of witness to back him!!! So many I can't even be bothered to list em!!! & also get him the slimy lawyer & team he's used!!! Even worse I reckon they will pay his fine & appeal the ban!!!..............Nice club!!! Backing a player with such a clean past, who may not be racist but clearly will say anything he feels like saying to a player when his team are losing & he's wound up!!! Not to mention fronting up to just about every single player in the QPR squad in the match back in October!!! A point I would make is this! You can beat your life that had it Been Cole of Chelsea raising these claims about one of our players or Anton's big bro...............This would never have dragged on the way it has............It didn't with Evra & the event is very similar!!! WHY!! Well we aren't a club that enjoys favors from the Powers that be!!............They don't care about clubs or fear clubs like QPR as opposed to Man United or Chelsea!!!

What a great picture that is. It looked like a City supporter to me & once again showed that this was not just a JT against Anton/Rangers case but JT against society/football.
I would like to thank all supporters for the support they have given to Anton during the past year.
Four games is not enough but the damage that he will suffer commercially will be severe.
