I believe that as long as the ref hadn't taken any action at the time (e.g yellow card) then the FA are good to go for retrospective punishment? If so, he'll get at least 3 for that. Worst tackle this year by far.
As opposed to if the ref had carded him then the FA deems the matter to have been dealt with. Pardew was saying that the ref apologised to him at HT for missing it.
