Liverpool: Luis Suarez's 10 Match Ban And 6 Other Famous Footballing Punishments

4. Paulo Di Canio For Pushing Referee Paul Alcock €“ 11 Match Ban

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AMnRO-v9kY Paulo Di Canio is a player with many memorable moments in his career, including displaying one of the best examples of fair play ever seen in football, but his most infamous occasion was in a match against Arsenal when he was a player at Sheffield Wednesday. After the two sides erupted into a large brawl, Di Canio was spotted by the referee starting a fight with Martin Keown, kicking him in the process. After Alcock brandished the deserved red card, Di Canio shoved him in the chest, and after several comical backward steps, Alcock was left sitting on the floor. The ban was followed by a £10,000 fine. Southampton€™s Alan Prutton was later guilty of the same crime when he pushed over referee Alan Wiley in 2005, which left Prutton banned for 10 games.
