ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[tmgc]

I remember back in April dreading this summer, visions of the rats rubbing everyones noses in it for months on end, but thanks to Slippy G,Sewerat,and the bells on RAWK its been tremendous so far, and i've still 2 weeks in Portugal to look forward to. Happy Days.

Well done you gang of festering kopite bells.

Fourth consecutive season he has been banned for them and they signed him after he had served another. So 5 straight years he has been banned and 4 for biting.

Yet Liverpool won't sell him

A measured, well balanced, unbiased opinion there, it would be easy to revel in their misfortune, well done sir.

He has missed 34 games for them due to bans since 2010 yet never been sent off, quite how he's managed to not get sent off is a mystery given his antics on the pitch.

Indeed.

Those doom laden days of dread and fear seem a lifetime ago now

He's one more bite away from being banned from football for life. FIFA have just flexed their muscles and shown him that.

He's a very high-risk investment now, given his unpredictability. Is anybody gonna offer serious money for him?

This is a very good point, not so much that he will miss a few games now, but that he's bound to do something mental again. He's got maybe 3 or 4 years left of his prime, what club is going to pay £64m on a player that likely will get banned for at least a year of that??

 

[quasi modo]

Does anyone know if this appeal by the Uruguayan FA is unsuccessful will his ban be extended?

All the press are feeling sorry for Liverpool as well, makes you sick really, they have stood by him twice, through the racism incident and the biting last season.

I'm enjoying the fume from the Uruguayans almost more than from kopites. At least that are mostly admitting he's fecked up.

I've just been reading a few media outlets here(British) and they are feeling sorry for the kopites. Why though? They knew he had history of this kind of thing and yet they still backed him. They should both be left to rot in hell.

Me and a lad from work discussed this earlier. Liverpool fans using the argument FIFA are punishing Liverpool with this ban, which is unfair would follow the same logic that a team should be able to bring on a sub when a player is sent off in a match, since they're punishing the team, as well as the individual.

The other argument that they're now forced to pay him £4m while he can't play for them and then blame FIFA for this is again ridiculous. They have internal options to reprimand him and fine him 2, 3, 6, 8, 12 weeks wages to recoup cash if they want to. But they won't, they don't want to upset a prize asset. Instead of looking at their man who did wrong and take action, they'd rather moan and play the victim card.

If I spent time prison, ignoring the fact I'd instantly lose my job, and my employer had been paying my salary while I was unable to work for them due to misconduct on my part (which was beyond doubt), it'd be inconceivable that not only would I not be disciplined when I got out, but my employer would blame the police for putting me there and treat me as some misguided soul, above blame.

Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate the difficult position Liverpool are in. He is a world class player and offers them a lot of things on the pitch, and you only have to look at how John Terry's racism case was handled by Chelsea to see other clubs have approached things in a similar way before. But that doesn't mean it doesn't stink and that Liverpool are choosing a chance of on the field success over anything else by not only standing by their man (as there's arguments for supporting your own players in spite of their faults), but trying to absolve him of blame and look for excuses and to shift blame everywhere else.

 

[Fedlingen]

What i don't get, AT ALL is the hate they're showing towards FIFA, it's not their fault that Suarez is a complete nutcase. If anything they should all focus the hate on him. The only man at fault here is Suarez, and both the Uruguayans and rednoses are acting as if it's FIFA fault.

I JUST DON'T GET THESE PEOPLE!

It's dee FA lad, it's UEFA lad it's FIFA lad.

I wonder if the RS will have a guard of honour when dear Luis appears again at the training ground. The RS dominated media are in a state of shock, they don't know what to do, a bit like Stevie me and Rodgers at Crystambul. They really are the gift that keeps giving.

Hansen on the BBC just saying he felt the ban was fair
