What Evra is alleged to have said was equally bad though corran. But Evra is black and Suarez isn't. PC madness, I do agree that Liverpool are undermining the kick it out campaign, but that;s because the FA have handled this very badly.

he admited using a "racial insult" or what was deemed a racial insult. Doesnt mean he is racist but does mean that he doesnt know what is acceptable in England. He admitted it, got punished, Liverpool are acting like dicks and want him to not be punished even thoguh he admitted using the terms punished for. THey come out an dlaugh in teh face of the "kick it out" campaign whilst undermining the FA at the same time.

Im surprised that the FA havent announced a charge towards the club for their behaviour to be fair
Yeah and what's this about Evra apparently being racist too? I think even if Suarez didn't insult Evra, he would have admitted it anyway.. he was going to be made guilty and be given a fine due to the FA being pricks about it and wanting to make a statement.

It just means players will cry wolf every time they even get the slightest racial abuse from now on.

Can't wait to see the reaction to Terry's punishment.. I know for sure the people around him won't just sit down and be quiet about it or shout that he's a massive giant racist.

To be fair, Fergie raised a good point. Evra got a 4 match ban for an altercation at chelski with no evidence too.

Wenger wants to re-sign Henry on a two month loan. Would certainly give them some decent striking cover, but it's not fixing the deeper issue. Buy another quality striker you tight git :)

True I guess.. I just wish the FA didn't pick a random number of match bans out of their ass every time for each punishment.

Reading some of the tweets containing the #ISupportLuisSuarez hashtag just shows that people read the papers too much really.

There was talk of 3 or 4 failed bids for 20mil - 35mil wonder kids like Gotze I do think Wenger has a big transfer in mind but we got turned down.

Big transfer = big money. Paying £30mil for the likes of a Hazard or Gotze may end up back firing.

Gotze, or the other options would be as much about sending the right message as it would be about him making an instant impact. We need a big player to slow the tide. Getting RVP or Theo to sign up would be a good start.

It's too hard to sign top strikers in January, no-one wants that loss mid-season.

Hazard/Gotze would be a signal in the right direction as both are hyped potential world class players, both in teams struggling to live up to early season expectations and out of the CL. I cant see any top end striker wanting to leave.. Cavani if the right money was splashed?

With Wenger hating to pay more than he needs to I doubt that he will get a super star in January as baring players with 6 months left or in a situation like Tevez there are no bargains to be had.

Terry should get at least the same penalty if it is proven correct.
And what exactly is Evra meant to have said? As you are claiming it is racist then it must be about the colour of suarez skin, i know he responded something with "south american" in it but that isnt racist. That is a totally different thing which i would expect you to know.. mind you most people dont actually understand that attacking the country someone is from is NOT the same thing as being racist. May be as bad but it not the same :p (hint - it starts with the name "xxxx the warrior princess"

Xenaphobia is just as bad as racism though corran, clearly Evra should get a similar ban for his comments.

Didnt say it wasnt as bad, and it depends exactly how it went. If it came after a constant barrage of "racist" comments he would get the lenancy that comes with being pushed into saying it. Is it right? No. But depends at what point he made his comments.
I dont like France or German as a country and would happily insult it at times (governments to blame mostly) but doesnt mean I dont like people of the countries :)

Is Daglish having some sort of mental break down?

What's wrong with that? he's right.
How is he right? He can't control one player, how are the FA going to control thousands of fans?And why should they?

Also what is he expecting to happen? Suarez already got booed for being a reprehensible cheat, now it's been proven he used racist language to an opposition player, it's going to get a lot worse.

What? so is a manager supposed to sit down with a player when he signs him and explain what's right and what's not? What Suarez did is pretty much nothing to do with Dalglish, that's nonsense.

Extra stewards = crowd problem solved, and yes, it is down to clubs quite a bit too..

The end of the day probably 90% of the worlds population are all sheep, OMFG MY MATE JUST BOUGHT THE NEW IPHONE ! IT NOW HAS 3D!! I MUST GO AND BUY IT!!!!!!!! ....... if one person starts booing Suarez, that persons friends will start booing Suarez too just to look "cool".. then people around start doing the same then there are say 2,000 people booing Suarez for being a "racist".. the actual facts are that maybe 10% of those people really believe that he is a racist..

And he is hardly a cheat, there are much worse players in the Premiership who are cheating... but people see it more in the amazing players because they are shown on MOTD more because that's all that the fucking sheep watch to "judge" these amazing players.

I did the same with Ronaldo I admit....

Suarez is a decent bloke, clearly being victimised by the press who just want to sell papers and the millions of sheep who love to hate.

And oh yeah,where is this proof that he was racist? I have not seen it yet.

Negrito (apparently what he said) means no offence over here, I have personally never heard it said over here even, not even on TV.. and in Uruguay it isn't even offensive.

So what's next? are players going to be called racists for saying thanks?

Damn I went on :D

Ah right. So you are having a pop at people for basing their opinion of Suarez by TV viewing but basically, you base your view of him by watching him on TV.
