Basically from teh report it has just been one persons word taken instead of anothers. How Suarez admitted saying Negrito once, and only once, and how it has all been taken just on the word of one man. And how Liverpool have accepted the punishment but state Suarez is innocent.
He did say wearing the tshirts may have been wrong in hindsight, but Barnes came across really well

And corruption. Lets not forget why Suarez was punished. Many factors are involved here, 1) to gain the moral high ground on FIFA, especially Sepp Blatter, 2) Two racial cases popped up in a short time, one involving a foreigner and the other involving the captain of the English national team. An example had to be set, and heat had to be taken off Terry, 3) The fact that the player crying wolf plays for Man United.
Many factors are involved here, and corruption is the one that is most rife, something Suarez and Liverpool FC are paying the price for.

Clearly the supporter said or did something to antagonise Henry and as a result Henry invited him onto the pitch according to press reports. Henry has apologised and confirmed that he should have behaved more calmly and used more appropriate language. I have read absolutely nothing to suggest that the FA are going to take any action. Why not? Reading between the lines it sounds as if Henry's behaviour was potentially threatening and bringing the game into disrepute.The fans behaviour sounds as if it was no better and could easily have caused serious trouble potentially leading to violence. Both the fan in question and Henry should be held accountable. To me this is far worse than a couple of players have a playground spat that involved nobody else and was heard by nobody else.
