Has Suarez done it again?

Well what a difference 24 hours can make. Liverpool fans were a lot calmer and more condoning of him yesterday when an intl ban seemed most likely. Using facebook as a barometer yesterday they were all ashamed of suarez saying he should be sold and the club better without him. Now FIFA are a joke and they can't live without him (or the ££££££ it will likely cost). I fully agree that the ban is harsh on Liverpool, the person it effects most is Suarez and so it should. He has had massive bans and has learned nothing, all this talk of liverpool controlling him. All he did was manage 30 games without biting someone, should they really get a pat on the back for that?

Fifa have to look out for their business, players biting one another is bad business. Tackles and a bit of a scrap are different entirely imo. I'm sure most have had a few too many and maybe had a scrap, ever been bitten by someone? I haven't!

Re sponsors, i dont think that will be a problem. Woulds had loads of offers after his 'incidents'. As Lphil has said, all publicity is good.
 
Its quite ironic that after helping liverpool deservedly reach the champions league suarez is quite possibly going to miss all the 6 group matches?
banned from 4 and do you keep him in the restricted squad to play last 2 matches?

Be good to see him get a bite at it .................. SORRY!

I agree that there was a lot more tolerance yesterday.
 
You don't have to read 50-odd pages, this one post hits the nail right on the head. Only thing missing is the word AGAIN at the end

I agree 100% Out of interest, if Uruguay appeal and its turned down is there a risk of the punishment changing. I'm sure that's the case in other sports (although I might be well off the mark - not for the first time)

They've already said it wouldn't, but it would increase the fine to cover costs of the failed appeal.

I think any appeal just shows how much they are all in denial of his repetitive Heinous crimes.

Or

If they appeal, is he available for the next match while the appeal is heard?
 
The appeal is stupid - there are no grounds for Uruguay to appeal - heard all sorts of nonsense abnout the pics being inconclusive and photoshop pics being used etc etc etc

But it wouldnt surprise me to see FIFA reduce it
