The Suarez/Evra Racism Row

[quote author=Mamma Mia link=topic=47188.msg1454987#msg1454987 date=1325616429]
I find it odd that people here are convinced the club's statement is a PR stunt and that we don't actually feel wronged in this.


Maybe I have too much faith in Liverpool Football Club. Then again, if I didn't, I would have no reason to support us.

TBF I'm not sure anyone actually thinks that. I think we all realise how the club feels. It's just that some on here think they know better than the club.
 
Sunny that you believe what the club is saying now, when we've quite clearly lied and bullshitted to the media all along says a lot.

Quite. No one is going to change their minds on either side.

It's been tedious for days. Let's end it.

Now let's fucking twat Man City.

With Gerrard back, it makes sense we didn't drag this out any longer. The FA were determined to make a statement, and Suarez was the necessary scapegoat.


I don't think he's racist, but the racist language he did use (whether out of ignorance/cultural differences) deserved a 2 match ban minimum. As did Evra, calling Suarez's sister a whore.


Let's just draw a line under this and move on. The club backed Suarez as far we could. Kenny has created a siege mentality and we're into January now, so the club can bring someone in if necessary. About the best we could have hoped for.
 
The club definitely believe an injustice has been done, but have rightly backed down. I don't agree an injustice has been done now, based on what evidence we have at the minute. But hopefully we can put this behind us either way.

If we beat Oldham he's back for the Spurs game.

What the fuck are you quacking on about? The first few paragraphs align exactly with my thoughts. The club does not accept the verdict but feels it has to accept the ban. Luis is innocent.

We've only decided against the appeal because we've got a fantastic new striker ready to sign up.
[/quote]

No, it's because the club realise the judgement is a solid one. As was mentioned by the few of us with a hint of common sense in the past few days.

Let it go Rosco, it's over now.

It certainly leaves a bad taste in the mouth as far as i'm concerned.

I am glad it's finally over though.

Andy - you've twice in the past few pages insinuated that everyone who didn't follow your point of view is a racist. Please stop - it's not funny.

4th round game is scheduled for 28th January, so he'd be back for wolves if we are taken to a replay.

Indeed. But pick your battles I guess. If we appealed and the FA increased his ban it would have been a complete waste.

Lets hope Luis can find his true form after 8 games of rest.

Andy and Ross, please move on eh?!

MomoWASboss posted it, or what looks like it, a couple of pages back. Quiffer. 😉

Well said Sunny. Ross, you're coming across like a right cock in this thread.

Correct as well Whizzy. Oncy, you're turning into a cock as well.

That's a great statement.

I hope the people who've taken the stance of 'guilty' from the off, or those who've adopted a smug air of glee from watching this unfold (as most predicted it UNFAIRLY would) will take a step back and have a look at how much of a shambles the handling of this case has been, how unjust it has been and how it's typified the FA's tendency to be lenient on, and in some cases be biased in support of Manchester United.

It's not a conspiracy theory, there are enough incidents over the last few years which leave a lot to contemplate and be angry about in that regard. And it's funny how some of the posters who are siding with the 'beyond reasonable doubt' line of thinking, then have the gall to accuse others being over sensitive about the varying treatment of different clubs in the game.

Let's hope we win tonight, but in truth, some posters have really left me shaking my head in disbelief throughout this thread. What a fucking car crash.

The judgement isn't a solid one, it's a well rehearsed, well researched and blatant threat at any sort of appeal. When there was little evidence to go on in the first place and the FA have been happy to convict based on assumptions, it's pointless fighting an enquiry that was already predicted to be corrupt from the off, as was mentioned by the few of us with a hint of common sense.
 
Common sense doesn't make you a lawyer Mark, and frankly I can see why the legal profession is so fucked now.

obviously it pretty much comes down to evra's word. I thought what would turn things in our favour would be spanish experts at an appeal but spanish speakers were brought into the original hearing so that put a pin in that idea.

LFC are right to move the fuck on and that's how I (along with the majority of liverpool fans) voted on the echo site poll (should LFC appeal or move the fuck on).
