That's the point, surely. Donkey's years flogging away climbing the pyramid with Stanley and now apparently likely (although I for one am not prejudging the outcome) to be banned for what may just be a penny-ante (OK £5-ante) bit of stupidity - I'd certainly have grabbed the chance to go out with a bang.
I agree with Jeff and others that a suspension pending the decision would have been the right way for the club to go - but that wasn't Cav's decision. So there he was on the pitch, as captain, and in those circumstances I have no trouble at all with him taking the pen, especially if Proccy wasn't keen.
Just as well it wasn't Rocky who gave away the last-minute penalty, I suppose. That would really have given the hanging judges something to shout about .......
