Can someone remind me why a criminal case was not brought against Luis ? seems like a much better line of prosecution for the accused

[Alex]

I don't think it was reported to the police. Think Evra would have had to press charges too. Don't quote me on that though.

Nobody pressed charges.

Crown's case is that words were "uttered in response to goading by Mr Ferdinand on the issue of his extra-marital affair, rather than by

Dan Roan @danroan
way of exaggerated & instant querying of a perceived false allegation."

[Alex]

Thats alright then. Crack on, John.

so basically - John Terry is more or less admitting he did say black cunt, but it was sarcastic, and only because Anton shouted "you shagged your mates missus"

do you know what...some how he is going to get away with this isn't he - it'll be sweeped under the carpet - ****ing disgrace if that happens

Crown says Terry told FA he made gesture ‘pretending Mr Ferdinand had bad breath’

[Kenneth]

the bit about it being in response to Anton mentioning his affair was from the prosecution. Don't know if terry has admitted that.

[Shaggy]

I get it now - it's the defence we were led to believe he'd go for.

Terry claims he clearly heard Ferdinand say words to the effect of "You calling me a black cunt?"

Terry replies..."**** off, **** off. ****in cunt, ****in 'black cunt', ****in knobhead"

Ferdinand denies it was ever even an issue and he hadn't accused Terry of saying it.

Ferdinand does his gesture 'for shagging' in court, at request of crown

[RedReet]

I take it there is no chance both of them can get done, just for being cunts… and Rio too for being a bigger cunt?

Being a c*** maybe offensive, but it is not an offence.

[Vermilion]

You can bet that whatever Terry and his barrister say he said to Ferdinand, it will fit with the video evidence enough to have 'reasonable doubt' as to his guilt.

Read @DickinsonTimes timeline as he's Tweeting whats going on.
