Luis Suárez.... a disgrace

Must say... "Well done LFC" for acknowledging Suarez's error
As you would expect from people who support golf, a game with a rather better track record than most, folk in general on here have recognised that Suarez & LFC were in the wrong. That's good for us involved in Golf. Will have to watch our backs for only some of the time when we come across those appeasers who find excuses for such dire behaviour.

Kenny had the perfect chance to 'disown' him IMO. We've all done something we shouldn't have in the past and had to take the medicine.

Dalgleish has backed the player in public. Nobody from higher up at LFC has done this at least in public because they all knew KD had made a mistake. Yesterday he could have said "....he let me down. He let the club down and all the fans.....". I'd have hung him out to dry.

I also love it when Suarez says "I have spoken to the manager..." before apologizing. Makes me think he didn't really want to but he's also only apologized for not shaking hands not for the original incident.
 
What an unmeaningful apology that was.

He only regrets it this morning after seeing the outcry he has caused

If there was any regret whatsoever from Suarez why didnt he be a man and do it before leaving Old Trafford and if he felt the need to apologise after speaking to his manager, why then didnt Dalgleish make him do it straight after the match once he had been shown the incident on TV.

If he had any balls and meant the apology he would have went to the United dressing room and asked to apologise face to face. Now that would have gone a long way to regaining some respect from the public as well as his fellow players
 
Apologies obviously made under instructions from the owners, who would not be at all happy at seeing their global brand tarnished in this way.

King Kenny was one of my heroes, but I think that he handled this badly from day one.

I honestly don't believe that the word "respect" can be used with relation to Football.
There's been little respect in the game for years.
Pound to a penny they're only doing it because the Premier League say they have to..........Tell me I'm wrong.
Would they do it if they didn't have to?

You're right so why do they insist on everybody shaking hands before games.

Imurg,I wouldn't waste my time trying to spell it out,it's not just Dalglish and his team that think racism isn't a serious subject it would appear.

Dodger, just because I don't agree with you doesn't mean I think racism is ok.

He done time for the crime so surely thats the end of the racism row.

No player should have to shake hands with any opponent they don't want to.
 
This shaking hands larky should be scrapped as it is a load of cobblers, one minute it is all nicey nicey and then soon as they kick off they are hacking away and snarling at each other. It is just done to promote this happy fair play atmosphere. Waste of time if you ask me.

Very disrespectful not to do so. Shaking hands is not just a sign of friendship.
In Sat's cicumstance it would have indicated that the previous situation between them was over and they start afresh.... which is why it was such a bad mistake not to do so.
He was again showing that he couldn't, again, be bothered to get to grips with the culture he is operating in... dispite his Club trying to, finally, put him on the right track by giving him the opportunity to shake, and expecting him to do so.
 
Alex Ferguson is a disgrace.....

" i dont mind a man united player Kung-Fu kicking a supporter in the head,
i dont mind a man united player missing a drugs test and receiving a 9 month ban,
i dont mind a man united player cheating on his wife with an old age prostitute,
i dont mind i man united player having a 5 year affair with his brothers wife."







"Suarez refusing to shake evra`s hand is a disgrace and liverpool should sell him!"

Alex Ferguson obviously has a short memory..
 
Ferguson is a hypocrite who happens to hate Liverpool.

I suppose it’s easy to forget how he himself refused the shake Mourinho’s hand at a champion’s league game

I suppose it’s easy to forget how he supported Cantona when he kicked a supporter in the crowd. Much more likely to cause a riot that a hand shake refusal. Didn’t see any cry for him never to play for UTD again

I suppose it easy to condemn Liverpool for not appealing the Suarez ban, yet disagree with it. Yet he did exactly the same when Evra received a 4 match ban. He rubbished the FA decision as flawed yet didn’t appeal.

Suarez was wrong to refuse the handshake in fact an idiot; I can forgive Evra for his gloating demonstration. But Fergusons hysterical rant showed him up for the hypocrite he is
 
Anyone think the Owners made Kenny and Suarez apologise to undermine their own positions?

Suarez will probably demand a transfer in the summer ( not sure who would take him though) and then Kenny will rant and rave and walk, saves the Board from getting rid, in the meantime they are tapping up Jose who is being ousted at Madrid
