So what is the public order offence that he is being prosecuted for? There has to be an underlying "basic offence" for it to be classed as racially aggravated.
From CPS website:-
Does this mean that every time there is an argument between players, that ALL of them will be prosecuted?

Well the way things are going this could well be the case.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

Which if found guilty, apparently carries a maximum fine of £2,500 - just a sneeze to JT. :rolleyes:

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

If he gets found guilty then the fine of £2,500 is frankly laughable in my mind when Suarez get a fine of £40,000.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

so the FAs independent regulatory commission wont step in after the case? its been closed for good? thats *beep* i thought they were going to wait until the police done their thing.

agreed 2500£ isn't much to him but having his name completely ruined is something else.

I for one am glad that JT has been charged, And not because l have a dislike for him, in the game of football players with his high respect from fans, he has badly let down the paying public by what he has done.

The CPS don't prosecute until they have good evidence of the charge, It will now be up to the FA to have the guts to do something about the charge brought against him, What they must do is to sack him from the captaincy of England, he has been charged, which he now has to defend.

Each time players appear on TV, you don't have to be a mind reader to lip read the language that comes out of the mouth's.

But it is unfair if he only gets fine so small compared to Suarez. The FA have to live up to the Respect tag.

40 grand is small change to both men. I bet Terry would much rather that sort of sized fine than a criminal record involving racism. If found guilty just watch his sponsors do a runner.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

They are on the starting blocks now:D

Also Giggs has scored in another season.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

Liverpool wore t-shirts with Suaréz's face on. Liverpool are not handling this well at all...

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

agree 100% there


Martin O'Neill's red and white army :):):):)

Re: Football Season 2011/12

Re: Football Season 2011/12
 

However it's fine for one England player to allegedly, racially abuse another player (The Pearce, Ince incident) as it can all be sorted out with a friendly phone-call according to Gordon Taylor at the time.

However, when the time comes for the feckless, blunt instrument that is the FA to score political points against Mr Blatter one of those dirty foreigners would be a prime canditate to make an example of wouldn't they, regardless of the nature of their so-called evidence. That is why Liverpool are aggrieved. The hyprocrisy of some people really is astonishing.
