I havent bought it since the disgraceful headline "Racist" was on the back page. I tried to e-mail the pr'ick Maddock to rip into him but havent been able to as it came back postal failure.
I wonder if anyone else feels the same about how badly theyre treating Suarez and LFC?

I'll be very surprised if Suarez doesn't take action over that headline as it was a clear defamation of his character. I haven't read the article but the RACIST headline over a picture of him was too far.

As has been said elsewhere, the fact the FA have handed out this verdict without the explanation has just opened up Suarez up to this free for all character assassination that he is having to endure and the press are loving it.

I can't take anyone seriously who talks about the news but buys a red top.

Agreed. But it's what the papers are there for, to print sensationalist headlines to sell and get a rise out of people. Don't give them the time of day mate.

Thommo there all as bad as each other. Even the so-called quality press isn't totally balanced. Find it difficult to take any paper seriously given their history of misreporting especially when it comes to football.Wouldn't bother getting too upset.They are not worth it!!

the problem is that now 90% of all sports reporters are now based in Manchester the more they are going to be pro Manc.

To be fair I dont buy a paper for the news. As Ive said its more of a habit. But I do take notice of the back pages and was totally pi'ssed off with that particular editon. Maddock is supposed to be a scouser I think? I dont expect them to be pro-LFC but I dont expect them to be anti-LFC either. I hope the club takes them to task on this and gives them a kick in the bollix.
