When this first blew up Michael Colvin in the Independent on Sunday was making out that any Villa fan who wanted Tonev sacked was only saying it because he's a rubbish player, which I thought was out of order.

You think he's not a rubbish player?
[2] Mr O'Donnell duly appeared with the appellant at the hearing on 30 October which we understand lasted seven hours. The crucial question for the three-man Judicial Panel was whether, following a heavy challenge by the black Aberdeen player, Shaleum Logan, and further contact with him by Logan's arm, the appellant abused Logan by calling him a "black c***". Evidence was given by these two players, the referee, the Aberdeen captain, Mark Reynolds, the Aberdeen manager, Derek McInnes, and the Celtic assistant manager, John Collins. The panel also had before them the referee's report of having the matter drawn to his attention, the statements of Logan, Reynolds and McInnes, and the statement of the Aberdeen Football Operations Manager, Steven Gunn. In addition they viewed four video clips reflecting events in the match.
From the above, we now know that several people gave evidence. However, it doesn't say what evidence they gave.
