That is one more example od how idiotic the FMF are, when they can pull sh.t like that and make it official part of the rules. I understand Herrerias point of view, but I do not agree 100% with how they went about the protest. Why couldn't Veracruz just field reserve players for this game? that would have allowed the starters to get the extra days rest.
Veracruz president banned after protest MEXICO CITY, Nov 30 (Reuters) - The president of Mexican first division club Veracruz has been banned for six months after his team boycotted a match because they said it was too hot. Veracruz, who are based in the tropical port of the same name, failed to turn up for their home game against Chiapas earlier this month after Rafael Herrerias said the midday kickoff time made it too hot to play. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/headlinenews?id=317947&cc=5901
