Suarez .................. utter disgrace?

No I would think he was a little **** and want him sent off. What happens in the sporting arena though is completely different to outside. Nowhere did I say what he did was ok though.

Where have a I mentioned a documentary? I don't need to watch tv to know what he is like as a person off the pitch. Get your facts right before you start twisting my posts.

Sorry Birchy, I didn't realise that you knew him personally!
How else would you know what he is like as a person off the pitch if you ''don't need to watch TV to know what he is like as a person off the pitch''?

You make me chuckle sometimes. If you'd read my post correctly you would see that I wasn't sure whether or not I'd understood your post coprrectly, hence my question "Is that what you're saying, or did I read your post wrongly"?
YOU stop twisting MY posts ................. or read them properly.

Slime.

I know a couple of people who deal with Suarez on a regular basis and all of them say he is a world away from what he is like on the pitch. Respectful and very well mannered and these type of people who deal with him usually get treated like muck by footballers so they were hugely shocked by this.

Considering I didn't mention a documentary at all I believe it is you who needs to read posts properly.

So yes you read my post wrongly i.e you made something up that wasn't there to suit your argument.
 
How exactly?

Slime.

Either the ref deals with it and he's sent off. Or I'd be all over him like a rash and leave a bit on him during every challenge.

Whatever way, when the final whistle blew, that was it. Hand shake, finished.
 
I can't get on board with the view that many footballers are a disgrace therefore we should just accept it and move on. That's a race to the bottom, would it not be better to expect and demand something more?

Many politicians are two-faced, dishonest, expense fiddling a'holes, so should we just accept it from them and move on?

Lets be honest you are comparing chalk and cheese there. Suarez is a footballer who plays dirty and does crazy things playing "a game". Politicians "allegedly" rob us blind, lie to us and run the country to suit themselves.

Bit of a difference imo.
 
The way it was always done .. :thup:

Wheres the like button ? we may upset a few tho mate

Still done that way too. Only at the two extremes does it spill over.........

Sunday morning pub players want to finish it in the car park

Top of the game has "Horrified from Swindon" jumping all over it after 30 different angles on Sky.

Funny how a rugby player can stamp on your head, gouge your eyes, and blind side punch you and its classed as a respectful gentlemans sport. Weird

I have to say I find you one of the most pedantic and sarcastic posters on this forum, there I've said it, I feel better now :smirk:

Fine, ignore the second paragraph if you must, the first stands on its own.

I do agree with you too, we should expect better. The bans are getting bigger though, next time it will be a season :rofl:

I think some of the behaviour off the pitch is worse as well but that's another thread :D

I cant see it getting any better with so much money involved though and while people are paid to win it will be win at all costs and that will keep talented but dirty footballers in a job.
 
..and some would say that Suarez is no more a disgrace than Ryan Giggs - some might say Giggs is more of a disgrace. In truth what childish, gross and stupid things a player does on the pitch with and to other players bothers me one heck of a lot less than his behaviour off the pitch and how his behaviour affects his family and friends.

I don't condone stuff Suarez has done on the football field - but most of it is just the typical pathetic behaviour of a section of us who have little connection with reality and indeed are a rather farcical bunch as they expect us to take them seriously.
 
Post # 139.

Wrong. Have another go.
Oh, and just because I live in Surrey doesn't mean I was born there!

Slime.

P.S. I will warn you, I can be VERY pedantic ;).


Post # 274.

Thanks for that, however we're talking about Association Football ...................... or football as it's known throughout the non-pedantic world.

Slime.

P.S. I was maybe a bit pedantic there.

Thanks for that Fish, but to be fair, you're not the first person to suggest that I'm a pedant ................ I think I was!
Yes, I can be pedantic and possibly very slightly sarcastic at times too. There, I've said it, I feel better now too. Doh!
Hey matey, don't ever lose your sense of humour, it's one of the reasons that I love this forum.
A little bit of devilment really gets things going, but as long as it's in the right spirit, no harm is done & no ill feeling is felt.

Agreed. Unfortunately it does not seem to be getting any better. It's driving me away from football to be honest, not that football cares!
 
So, if he bit you during a football match you'd think that was okay because he came accross as a nice quiet family man in a documentary you once watched?
Is that what you're saying, or did I read your post wrongly?

Fine, thankyou for answering the question I asked in my post. I quite clearly did read your post wrongly, my apologies for that.
I may well be a sarcastic pedant, but I'll hold my hands up and apologise when I'm wrong.
Birchy, I apologise for mis-interpreting your post ..................... my mistake.

Slime.
