Won't be as bent as your views, obviously.

The case against Suarez was brought because Evra complained to the referee, the media and followed up that complaint to the FA.

JT is being investigated on the back of someone who watched the match in TV and called the police.

Suarez has been found guilty, and even now you don't want to accept the verdict. Yet you want the FA to have punished Terry simply because of a complaint from someone watching TV.

It's not 'simply' because of a complaint. I didn't even know there was a complaint. I watched the video, Terry's words are clear as day and his only defence is he added the words 'no I didn't' before them. There's strong evidence against Terry, but the FA stood by their man like the bent knobs they are.

As I said, I can't wait to see what happens. This will be just like the Mascherano thing from a few years back, they'll make an example of the Liverpool player - the foreigner - yet let the Chelsea Englishman get away with it.

I just bought a pack of Liverpool playing cards for Christmas. All 52 look like this:

The brains trust at RAWK is on it



That should be the first step taken, second thing is to ban any Sky or ESPN camera from entering Anfield and show the matches exclusively on LFC TV. Third don't play the PL music, don't put the PL badge on the sleeves and the PL numbers. Forth, don't give any match hospitality to the FA members, the visiting teams or the referees. Pulling out of the league should be the last step but there are many things to do before that.

They want to send him a card as a show of support.

I might send this one:

I knew when you made the post back in October you wouldn't back it up. I had you down as a decent, fair poster. Not blindy biased or as stupid as the bitter LFC fans on here. Disappointed.

It does seem odd that the thrust of the statement appears to be "one man's word against another" without any references to the cultural differences that had seemed to form the basis of Suarez's defense.

Re: The Football Chat Thread : Wed Dec 21, 2011 8:44 am  

Liverpool fans defending Suarez, shocker!

Seems club rivalries are more important to some than racism from the stuff i've read.

As for JT I hope he gets the same if not worse.

Kickitout!
