lol at the hand shake

 

[Bahumat]

Rio just got wiped out there lol!

 

[Keitanz]

Err when have you done this? He always plays from the left of attack.

He started a few upfront just ahead of Carroll for a few matches and it worked quite well.. the only game I'm 100% sure he started upfront though was against Bolton when Carroll flicked the ball on and Bellamy scored and we got pwned

 

[JingleBells]

Oh well Suarez had to be a dick. Evra was ready to shake his hand.

 

[Keitanz]

Ferdinand didn't shake Suarez's hand after that... he should stay out of it really.

I don't remember Wayne Bridge not shaking Terry's hand to be a big deal..

People really have it in for Suarez .. sigh... at this rate he will be forced out of the country.

 

[Ch3tan]

Very different circumstances Keitz, you can't compare that unless Bridge had offered his hand to Terry and Terry had refused.

It is the difference between the offender and the offended.

 

[Keitanz]

I guess.. I do wonder what the press reaction/general public reaction would be if Suarez was a Man Utd player though.

To me it would be the same, although I do accept you'll always have people who find it harder as fans of the club no matter happens.

 

[Keitanz]

I wonder if Bainteor is going to come back any time soon and say "I told you so "

 

[Ch3tan]

I still don't think Suarez is or was racist though Keitz, I know Evra is a dick to. However Suarez was probably in the wrong and this could have all been forgotten had he apologised to Evra. Instead he made it worse for himself by insisting on sticking by a story no one could corroborate.... and he continues to make the wrong PR choices. Seems to me he needs Max Clifford on board, it's worked wonders for Cheryl Cole after all.

 

[soze]

TBH i agree with G Nev the hand shake should of been scrapped. And if you do not like someone do not shake his had. It is not a big deal lets just hope people do not look to far into it. It is not race related he just does not like Evra that should b allowed.

 

[Ch3tan]

Yes Soze, however in that case I think it should have been agreed before the game. Suarez should have told his club, who should have told United and then there would have been no drama.

 

[soze]

Yep like QPR and Chel$ki just miss that part out.

 

[gmloki]

Fergie needs to get the players to stop trying to nobble that little Uruguayan twat and just concentrate on the game. Lot of players for us too wound up

 

[megadave]

LOL what a complete idiot, he makes all these problems for himself

 

[Ch3tan]

ooooof Scholsey!

 

[Keitanz]

Bah.. getting destroyed here :c need Carroll on to just hold the ball up ;(

 

[Calaen]

Can't believe Carroll did not start, hes confidence is there for everyone to see. Daglish is tactically shite

 

[Ch3tan]

Dalglish went for the start Suarez to undermine United's defence psychologically approach. It hasn't worked.

 

[Keitanz]

Almost worked there apart from a good tackle from Ferdinand.

 

[megadave]

haha such a tit

 

[Sydrik]

Acting like a petulant cunt is not the way to convince people you aren't a petulant cunt.

 

[Keitanz]

I'd lol so much if Suarez got the winner in the 90th minute... doubt he will be on then though

 

[gmloki]

Acting like a petulant cunt is not the way to convince people you aren't a petulant cunt.

Cannot disagree with the logic there

I disagree, the handshake isn't or at least shouldn't be about whether or not you like the person, it's a demonstration of sportsmanship.

 

[Keitanz]

That could have easily been a sending off.

 

[soze]

Sorry but putting a fake smile on it for the sake of a FA rule is wrong and I would rather they were honest. Shaking someones hand does not mean you instantly respect them, you will be the same during the game handshake or not.

 

[soze]

That could have easily been a sending off.

Rio touched the ball the ref got it right.

 

[Calaen]

Surprise surprise Jamie Redknapp thought ferdinands tackle was a sending off. What a douche. As for the handshake, Suarez is making a rod for his own back. Evra can be a tit, but this deflects it all onto suarez.
