I am wondering what stance Liverpool will take if their fan is found guilty racially abusing Oldham Athletic defender Tom Adeyemi. After their support for Suarez where can they go? Will they turn out for their next game wearing T-shirts with his picture on them to show support? NOT A CHANCE COZ HE ISN'T WORTH £25m.


What ever happened to the old saying 'NO MAN IS BIGGER THAN THE CLUB'

This blatant hypocrisy is the reason fans are leaving football in their droves.
 
While I agree totally:

No footballer is worth that much!! It's bloody stupid what teams pay for players these days, but I'll save that :rant: for another thread :smirk:
 
Some players are worth big money, Rooney, beckham, ronaldo, messi...but not because of their football skills, but because the money they bring in through merchandise sales and advertising!

I think Liverpool have shot themselves in the foot and there's no way going back, we all know the majority of Liverpool fans are Neanderthals so will not be able to comprehend why racism has no place in the world!
 
thats a bit strong Dave, whilst there's an element in all clubs (not just lfc) who are still living in 1950's mindsets, the majority of fans around the country are anti racism.

A lot of these so called racists are hypocrits anyway as they will happily cheer one of their own teams players if they score or doing something good on the pitch

Coming from an arsenal supporter!! hahaha
 
I wasn't wanting this to evolve into a slagging match but I cannot see how Liverpool can ban this guy from Anfield or take any action against him when they have condoned Suarez who used the same word on numerous occassions. I would love to see a big club sack a big player when they do something serious. What would Liverpool do if a Ref who used the word against one of their players. Do you think John Terry will be shown the door if the allegations against him are proven? Not a hope in hell.

My Appolgses, I was using you as an example to support my neanderthal comment.

Liverpool are stick between a rock and a hard place though, be very difficult to get out of this situation positively. Sell Suarez to show they don't stand for racism.

If I was found guilty of a racist comment in work I would either be on a final written warning and sent on a hell of a lot of courses or dissmised. I wouldn't be told to turn up but not work for 8 days .....

The club handled the situation very badly in my Mind....... Just my oppinion
 
its always going to be the same in football with money ect...

i use to travel from leicester to watch a few games but since they have changed the all red membership system i haven't bothered
 
what some people tend to forget is that in the heat of battle things are said to get the upper hand (suarez) all players do this as for the fans who shout abuse like that they should be banned from all football grounds

Good question... A few years back [on an 'official' form] I stated, for my nationality, English... I was informed that it was NOT an acceptable answer... To me, thats racism... Yet I could do nothing about it...

No... I am not in the ENP nor do I subscribe to any of their views...

I just want the same courtesies afforded to others with regard my heritage/nationality...
