Luis Suárez

[Harv]

Conceivably what can FIFA do if we give them two fingers and let him train? They cant possibly stop him doing that. Its absurd.

If we cant appeal, then we should just ignore it all. Play him from day one, let him train as soon as he's back. They cant **** us over and not give us a chance to have any say.

Fine equates to about £65,000.

The main issue is that its his 3rd biting offence. And he's previously had a lengthy ban for racism.

They will ban him from more International matches as a breach of his punishment.

Moreover, FIFA can influence the FA into doing something about it I think.

Why is there no right for us to appeal? A shambles!

I think they pretty much can. Maybe the club can try to get it reduced once the storm has calmed, but it needs to be done in the right way. The last thing the club should do is provoke FIFA.

[Gibbo]

Is there a least a legal thing we can look at when it comes to his wages, either getting them from FIFA or not giving Luis them. Would that be allowed?

[dom9]

What is it with these football authorities who just seem to make rules up as they go along?

OK, there's no choice in this case as there is no precedent, but a stadium containing racist chanting gets a free pass compared to this. Where is the sense of proportion?

#LFC to issue statement on Suarez in next 15 minutes. #URU

[Pablo]

The section about him being banned from football activity is incredibly vague.

[danperkins]

When you leave it in the hands of jokers like FIFA sure anything can happen. Anger should be directed at Luis Suarez and nobody else. I'm sure FSG and Rodgers are having a ****ing conniption fit at the moment.

The main issue is that its his 3rd biting offence. And he's previously had a lengthy ban for racism. So we can't make a legal challenge to reduce the 4 months then I think we have to consider selling him im afraid. How sad that a player of such talent will be missing from our team, he's the one true game changer

We can't sell him. He's banned from administrative things too meaning he can't sing a contract. That can't even be legal, restricting his right to work.

[rodo]

some spanish journo thinks if barca bought him then the ban would get lifted as fifa do not stand in the way of the likes of them

[RoadEnd]

Can he play table football or subbuteo? Is he banned from watching football on the TV, reading about it in a newspaper, talking football with friends?

What the F@@k is "football activity"

Banning him from playing is one thing - but training as well

[-V-]

Its far too harsh on us. He never committed the offence while working on behalf of Liverpool FC so that's not right
