well what do you know,the glorious organisation called the fa have bottled it yet again.
they released a statement after recieving the ref's report and no charges will be brought against anyone after saturday.
they say suarez wont be punished for not shaking evras hand and evra wont be punished for the celebrations at the end and no charges brought for the half time antics.both clubs will however be spoke to regarding future conduct.

what a load of fooking toss.
i cant believe our club is bending over and taking this as the double standards here is nothing short of disgusting.

You say the FA bottled it? I hate the style and attitude of the FA and the way Suarez was treated over what I consider to be a non racist issue.Misunderstanding yes! Racist no! The FA could have prolonged this sorry affair by banning Suarez for a further lengthy period.They would also have to more than likely ban Evra for his unsportsmanlike behaviour as well. Frankly I have had more than enough of this sh.it and on this occasion the FA have done the right thing IMHO.

Agree. Which is why we shouldn't have apologised to those scumbags in the first place........

Having said that, I feel real embarrassed to have his kit hanging in my closet next to Stevie's.

ya maybe u shld go support manyoo instead.

they have/had players who
1)kungfu kick a fan
2)failed a drug test
3)injured opposition player on purpose and proudly said it in
his biography
4)find hooker his mom's age while engaged
5)f.c.uked his sis-in-law for 5 yrs.

guys, chilled, it just a handshake.

The sh!tstorm is almost over, it's now time for SUPPORTERS to support our player, and sing his name, letting the owners know that we still want him, and he is one of us. When all is said and done, all he did was refer to someone's colour, innocently if you're south American. Oh and not stop and chase some :censored:

hand. He hasn't killed anyone, not been drinking and driving, cheated on his wife, taken drugs, sworn into a camera, tred to break his contract etc. etc.

The media will never change but it's certainly time for some of our fans to stop being so precious and remove the chips off their shoulders and support the fella in red.

It would not surprise me that the FA were involved in the discussions and agreed to take no further action if Liverpool apologised.

suarez scores and the kop goes wild,
i just cant seem to get enough suarez

youll never walk alone mate

Right, i'm getting a bit sick of the whole issue, however, the issue is currently being discussed on Talksport.

Some fans are asking questioning whether Suarez should stay at Anfield or not. This is because he made KK look stupid. i.e. he told KK that he would shake Evra's hand, he didn't he let KK, the Club and Fans down.

Standard Chartered have made a statement saying that "they are disappointed with the whole issue"

Some fans are saying that they have no sympathy with KK for the way he has handled the issue.

Dont think the FA induced the apology but more like our sponsors who by all accounts had a 'robust' conversation with NESV after Suarez decided not to shake the hand.

This all on the back of John Henrys last visit where it is reported a bollocking was delivered to management over the general running of the club and our handling of the Suarez affair.

I really dont think many people have grasped the seriousness of this situation and in particular during a period where we have just signed up new sponsors and are looking for further investment to assist with the stadium issue and improve the team.

We can back Suarez until the cows come home but I dont think anyone will be singing his name quite so loudly when sponsorship contracts start being ripped up and we have to sell players to make ends meet.

I guess he is referring to the fact that we have come out of this looking like a thoroughly incompetent racist organisation that can see no wrong in Suarez's behaviour. That is the reality whether we like it or not. Just take a look on NewsNow, the Suarez Evra debacle is worldwide news and we look like the non caring offenders.

We bravely decided to defend the indefensible and Kenny and Suarez both have my admiration for that. Luis admitted to using some language that isn't acceptable in a country where beating up your Granny is almost regarded as a lesser offence than racial abuse. Ever since Suarez naively admitted to inadvertently abusing Evra we were on a hiding to nothing. Even if he had been found not guilty of racial abuse he would still have had a major problem with the media and opposing fans. If by some strange reason Terry is found innocent how do you think the Kop will respond?

I'm afraid that whilst there were no witnesses Suarez said enough to put the nails in his own coffin. His defence was never taken seriously. If he has a head on crash for driving on the wrong side of the road in this country will he use the excuse that we drive on the right in Uruguay? I just hope he has learned from his extremely costly mistake. The club also need to ensure that all players are aware of what they can and cannot say on the pitch.

they are doing a pontius pilate imo, when we released that statement vigourously defending suarez the same day that the players wore those suarez t shirts do you honestly think the owners werent informed of what was going on given the seriousness of the issue?
they are the senior management, they should have realised it was more prudent to play the situation down than to stir it up.
when everything has gone nuts they have offered the wolves in the press kenny and suarez.
