SuperHudd, is that you? :lol:
Genuinely, regardless of all the pantomime that follows him, Im just not convinced he is THAT good anyway
He said the same last night on ESPN after the Tottenham game pretty much, its the most sense been talked on the subject I have heard.
Everyone seems to have a personal agenda, each trying to stich the other over.
have you read the report ?
the charge that was leveled on Suarez is based on an exchange he and Evra had where Evra offensively says 'don't touch me sudamericano' to which Suarez answers 'why is that negro?'
they both are being offensive towards the other in pretty much exactly the same way
6 of one half a dozen of the other

Without condoning the comment from Evra, anyone who thinks saying 'South American' is the same as saying 'n****r' is off-kilter. Were Suarez to have responded IN KIND, he would've surely said 'why is that Frenchie?' or some such handbag response. Instead he referred to Evra's skin colour in a derogatory fashion. NOT the same I believe...
Who said 'ni**er' ?
This x 100
I wonder what would have happened if Player A was black and called Player B (who was hypothetically white) - 'white trash'. I wonder if half the posters typing away demanding a public execution (based on nothing more than one man's word vs the other) would be as vhemently defending 'human rights and equality'.
Not to mention the complete media branwash - the only thing on the the news all weekend has been a clip of that - fudge off, no one cares.
Tell you what, when white people have been subject to slavery and the sort of discrimination that black people have endured in the last 100 years or so, then maybe I'll see being called a white so-and-so in the same light as a black so-and-so.
The reason racism is bad is not because pointing out a distinguishing feature or characteristic is bad in its own right. It's bad because the act refers back to days in which our (white peoples) treatment of black people was a disgrace. Without that prior history, or at least the intention to insult someone based solely on their background or heritage, then the slur is no different to calling someone freckles or ginger.
To be fair I think we told Arsenal the same thing in 2008
Our stop gap signings: Friedel, Gallas, Saha, Adebayor Wages Only
Liverpool: Adam, Henderson, Downing, Carroll 80M
Both teams will need to replace these players in the near future.

See I find that OTT, and certainly would not use the C word... maybe the Q!
So let me get this straight.
Liverpools owners have apologised.
Suarez has apologised.
Kenny has apologised.
But some people still think Evra pulled his hand away?
Wow, RAWK is a really infectious disease
are you fudging blind or just plain silly?
