Re: Football Season 2011/12
He admitted to saying something in his native tongue and maintains that there was no racially motivated intent in what he said. It's Luis Suarez's perogative if he wishes to maintain his innocence with regards to the charges and verdict brought against him.
This has run it's course, it's been done to death and while he's was very wrong to have misled Kenny Dalglish was it really necessary to continue flogging a dead horse over this handshake nonsense?
Damien... from a fan's perspective do we really know if racism is a problem on the pitch? From past experience it is a sporadically occuring problem within the stands.
In the case of Suarez, subsequently Terry why is it such a hot topic in the immediate aftermath of Blatter's idiotic comments when, in times recently past the topic was dismissed as mere folly by the media and the suits around the trough?
Of course the Suarez affair was a show trial, this is not a cry of "conspiracy!". The FA have not crossed this bridge before but in the light of the Blatter comments and increasing scrutiny around said issue were undoubtedly pressured into acting the way they did when in actual fact the scrutiny should have been on their own due process. imho this is a sensitive issue for both parties which should only be dealt with under staturory law.
