Suarez given 8 match ban!!! so what about Terry?

amen

on Terry, he will also then be up infront of the FA after the court case if found guilty and will probably get the same if not more than Suarez. May well be the last he plays for England (no loss there, he makes Mertesacker look quick)
 
Those t-shirts :rofl:The sight of Suarez wearing a t-shirt with his own face on just shows how mind-bogglingly ridiculous it was.

The whole thing is all down to Dalglish. Watched the game last night desperately hoping for a Liverpool win (fourfold) and saw nothing but inept decisions on tactics and subs from him. £80m on Carroll, Downing and Henderson....deary me.
 
It says on bbc sport that if Suarez loses his appeal there is a possibility of the ban being increased, I don't really see why he's appealing to be honest, the ban won't be completely overturned as the fa want to show that they are clamping down on this, and the maximum it can be reduced by is one game so it appears to me that Suarez is fighting a losing battle on this one

But the point is he can keep playing until the hearing and so is available now for all the Christmas and New year games
 
The fact that there is so much differing opinion on this issue it demonstrates that this case is not cut and dry.

I am sure I will be corrected if I’m wrong, but the way I interpret this case is from what I read; it was judged by an independent panel appointed by the FA. Hmmm! Yes okay. They found him guilty, but the sentence was passed by the FA not the panel.

The FA are very displeased with the lenient manner both FIFA and UEFA are paying lip service to the issue of racism. I fully agree with the FA on this issue. Sepp Blatter recent dismissal of racist insults on the field of play and a recent £2000 fine for country who fans continually chanted monkey sounds demonstrates this.

However it does not justify using and individual as a scapegoat, just to demonstrate how tough the FA are.

With reference to the case these are the questions that worry me

1. Why did Evra not report it to the match official during the game? Why was it half an hour later after he spoke the Fergusson that he spoke to the official
2. He claimed Suarez called him a n-----r, at least 10 times, why is the there no video evidence of this, or anyone including officials hear this
3. How can Evra be accepted as a credible witness when he has a history of crying racist, all dismissed. Including, Steve Finnan, Chelsea groundsmans and even accused a referee of only booking him because he was black
4. Negrito without doubt is not a racially offensive word in Suarez’s native tongue and country. It does not translate to negro or worse. How can an English panel deem that it does?

I Believe the FA were out to nail someone to demonstrate strength to FIFA and UEFA, and a patsy by the name of Suarez fell into their lap at the right time. I am as vehemently opposed to injustice as I am racism. This is not justice. He is at worst guilty of naivety. It does not justify the draconian punishment he received. Liverpool have said they will fight this by whatever means necessary, If they were to take this a civil court the FA would be laughed out of it in my opinion

This what I don't understand. If the word has no translation then the only reason for the guilty decision is that it sounds like a racist term, and that sounds like very dodgy ground ... and is probably the reason for the appeal.
 
Breaking News!!

The F.A have handed Andy Carroll an 8 game run in the Liverpool first team.....
