To play is one thing but to be captain is another. You are obliged to talk to the press as captain and the FA obviously didnt want to put Terry in that situation, he would be asked dozens of questions about it every time.
You cant drop him because he's innocent under proven guilty although its not looking good for him.

I've done that to people before, you can see suarez goes to shake de gea's hand but just commits to it early as if to act like he tried, if he went for evra it would have been two motions, instead he slides along without hesitating.

Well isn't the new proposed change I'm law on bail moving away for that. Basically keeping people in prison who may be innocent just because the victim complains?

I agree, but when you see someone put their hand down just how hard do you try to go for it? In my opinion Suarez does enough and doesn't deserve the lambasting, Evra was a knob... is a knob.... in fact as many people have said - they BOTH are.

OK not exactly in the same position, I think Evra was anticipating Suarez wouldnt shake it so he it was back a bit but still out enough for Suarez to shake.

I understand it was agreed by LFC that they should shake hands , the fact that he did not was poor and against his club wishes , anyway why do all this shake hands stuff have to be done , i am sure it never was years ago , just the captains shook hands many moons ago , what happen later was the result of the failure to shake hands , nuff saidr

I think the handshakes are supposed to be part of the whole 'Fair play' thing... you shake hands before you try and break someones frikkin' legs 
, a bit like bowing in kung-Fu.

I'm also neutral but I saw it the other way. And then next 'handshake' was cr*p and Ferdinand declined!
All hissy fits imo, but the pre-game handshake was meant to sort out some of the tension. Seems to have increased it in certain cases!

The FA did not want him to be captain at the euros because of his pending court case , they felt it would distract the others from the fooball that needs to be played , they the FA did not conduct the whole matter in the right way , they should have sat down with the mafia boss and john terry and said what they wanted to do and gave JT the chance to stand down for the good of the team with agreement from capello , but they did not , maybe the FA wanted rid of both these guys after what happen at the WC , the whole thing smells of mis management or does , maybe the mafia boss got a job line up back home and said nothing coz he wanted out too so he let the FA get rid of JT then give an interview in italy and later resign with a pay off and a no talk about the matter deal ...........anyway read into it what you must , it seems JT is the only one who did not get what he wanted .........

Yes quite right but in kung fu even wen you bow you dont take your eye off the guy in front of you , all these football stars are as bad as each other anyway , they all cheat to win , good job its not that way in golf

Why should he shake hands with someone who racially abused him?

Why the hell they ask players to shake hands before the game is beyond me. It really only started when some of the old fools who run football thought up this fair play rubbish. It's a physical game and players often don't get on, it happens in the Premiership and it happens in the local park. Making teams shake hand before the game only is, at best, for show and at worst, likely to ensure that a game starts with bad feeliing reignited between certain players.

Evra's reaction to Suarez summed him up really, pointing at the camera man as if to say " that little racist won't shake my hand cos I'm black". Pathetic.
Also the celebration right in front of Suarez was seen to be incitful and not very clever.
It reminded me of Gary Neville running the full length of the pitch to celebrate right in front of the Liverpool fans a few years ago.

Evra is an idiot of highest level, not dismissing Suarez as innocent, however I would struggle not to punch Evra in his cheating, dirty playing whining little face. LFC need to knock this on the head quickly, how they do that I don't know...
Anyone else miffed as to why they bothered with the handshakes for this match? They must have known it would have been a bigger talking point than the match it's self.. How come they canned the shakes for the Chelsea qpr game? "is it cos JT is white?"

Because it was the FA cup and not a Premier League game. The Premier League decided not to cancel it, it's nowt to do with the FA.
