Vieira says FA have it in for Arsenal as Campbell sins again

PATRICK VIEIRA has accused the Football Association of displaying an anti-Arsenal bias as he leapt to the defence of Sol Campbell.

Vieira effectively claimed Campbell was only charged with retaliation against Eric Djemba-Djemba during the Community Shield because he is an Arsenal player.

Campbell's frustration at his recent disciplinary plight, with a four-game ban at the end of last season followed by a red card against Everton and this latest misconduct charge was such that he demanded a meeting with FA bosses earlier this week.
