Football The 2012 / 2013 Season Thread

[DaGaffer]

Liverpool forward and Uruguay skipper Luis Suarez, last season found guilty of racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra, was booed by sections of the Old Trafford crowd every time he touched the ball, while the UAE really took the game to their opponents.


the Beeb are worse than you lot for not letting this go......

Erm, its completely relevant in the context of where he was playing the game!

 

[JingleBells]

I was at the game, and it was very enjoyable booing Suarez for 90 minutes - it should be an event at every Olympics

Arsenal v Man City on ESPN in 10 minutes.

Walcott's starting up top through the middle.

 

[Raven]

Stream?

 

[cHodAX]

Nope, they are playing on a pitch.

I reckon Walcott could do quite well running on from the middle with Podolski and whats his face coming in from wide to support him.

The FA has confirmed John Terry has been charged over alleged abusive and threatening behaviour towards Anton Ferdinand.

Told you

Told you

Good good, now they need to give him what they gave Suarez, from then on the standard is set for EVERYONE.

 

[megadave]

I take it they've charged Ferdinand too then?

According to CFC website
John Terry has denied an FA charge announced today (Friday) and will be requesting the opportunity for a personal hearing.

Did they say racist abuse?

If not, they don't have to do anything like what they did to suarez...

 

[Corran]

Did they say racist abuse?

If not, they don't have to do anything like what they did to suarez...

Terry, 31, is alleged to have used "abusive and/or insulting words and/or behaviour" in the 23 October match.
The FA statement continues: "It is further alleged that this included a reference to the ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race of Ferdinand."

 

[Talivar]

If they charge him surely Rio is going to get same for choc ice comments ?

 

[Corran]

If they charge him surely Rio is going to get same for choc ice comments ?

depends. Rio has stated that choc-ice is not a racist term and is slang for someone that is being fake (one thing on outside, another on the inside). So the FA will have a harder time in proving a case around that because it is a term that can be used in many different ways.
No doubt people argue that it is the same with suarez but meh!

They didn't charge Evra so probably not

 

[Lethul]

If I would have been charged for everything I've said on a football pitch/hockey rink I would have been locked up for life :<

 

[cHodAX]

They didn't charge Evra so probably not

You really are deluded. Why would Evra be charged?

 

[caLLous]

Evra didn't do nuffink, mr liverpool fan.

 

[Embattle]

It isn't the same, any other action against others will be taken after Terry has been dealt with by the FA.

 

[cHodAX]

United must be getting some good scratch off Hublot to be doing this shit...

[Embattle]

A very expensive watch.

 

[soze]

You really are deluded. Why would Evra be charged?

Depends how far the FA go Evera has been recorded on numerous occasions using n1gga in the cultural way, but unless it is on the pitch the FA should leave it alone. I do not think Evera has done anything that should be charged by the way.

 

[gohan]

Evra and Ferdinand can't possibly be charged for racism..... they're black

FYI Evra was using south american as a dergoitory remark and goading Suarez in exactly the same was Ferdinand was ripping into Terry about bridge, so it is a comparable situation.

 

[megadave]

Hes being charged with using bad la.gauge, not racism though?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Yeah abusive language, with alleged race related stuff. No idea where it'll go tbh.

Christiano who?

 

[Shagrat]

not sure whats going on at Newcastle this pre-season.

We've won pre-season games and look good.
We've not signed or sold anyone for stupid amounts.
We havent turned the stadium into a giant chip shop and confirmed we're now playing our home games at a local park.

It's almost as if we're a normal football team now. Scary!

Watching the pre season game and Chamakh is total shite. He has no first touch he really is a liability in this game.
