Rear Admiral de broe Tetherington, the Queen's private secretary has refused to confirm that Her Majesty also recommended a life ban and is unhappy with only 10 games. She blamed the breakdown of moral standards in the 21st Century.
The Uruguayan Ambassador has been summoned to the Foreign Office for an explanation. Diplomatic relations between the two countries are balanced on a knife edge.Those that hid Anne Frank were breaking the law.
Those that killed her, were following the law.Comment

In 2007 when he assaulted Ousmane Dabo in training the FA banned him for 6 matches, plus 6 additional games were added (suspended) for his previous behaviour.
You're right though, it's not quite the same, and there is not bigger thug in the game these days than Joey Barton so to treat him the same (well arguably worse) is extremely unfair.Comment

Not his meltdown at City on the last game of last season. His meltdown in training when he attacked his own player in 2007.
Although in theory if they were using the "past behaviour" angle they should have added even more on that occasion too.
Again though I'm not saying I agree with it, I'm just speculating that's the excuse the FA might try to use.

Because he's shown the FA up for the numpties that they are.
I still don't think the majority of people 'understand' him yet. I used to hate him last season (true story) but now I've grown to embrace him because, at the core of it all, he loves the club and plays with his heart on his sleeve.
Ok, so he's harshly out for our first 6 games start of next season but we can substitute this for the fact that he never gets injured. Never. Even though he plays the game on the egde. It's madness.Comment

What really pisses me off is that you don't have the option to clear your own name in this. If they convict you, you can appeal but they will ban you for longer. How is that allowed to happen in a democratic lawful society?
If you are found guilty in a criminal court, you can appeal (if there's evidence) and if unsuccessful they don't add a bit more onto your sentence, do they? It's part of a fair legal process.
Also does the statement from the FA not prejudice the independent panel?Comment

..he admitted to using a word in his native language that has a totally different meaning. Terry lied initially and said he never used it, then weeks later said he did. So being honest gets 8 games, lying gets less. The amount of conjecture and BS in the Suarez findings on that were ridiculous.
And I don't remember anything in the Terry verdict threatening him with suspension if ever found guilty of racism again, like it was with Luis.
FA are a bunch of xenophobes. They will laugh if Suarez leaves this Summer. GuaranteedComment

If he'd shown them up by some clever rouse I'd be all for loving him more. But showing them up by biting a fellow professional, unprovoked, and leaving himself open to a 10 game ban. Nah, that doesn't make me love him more. His behaviour was unacceptable and disgusting so I love him a little less.Because he's shown the FA up for the numpties that they are.

When the FA pick the panel and one of the 3 members is a member of the FA Comission, how on earth is it an independent panel?What really pisses me off is that you don't have the option to clear your own name in this. If they convict you, you can appeal but they will ban you for longer. How is that allowed to happen in a democratic lawful society?

Can you see Rodgers standing up against Fergie?
I don't.
I don't call him chicken or something like that. He is simply not a big enough name. Not his fault. He is simply a rookie in the game.Stop the cyberhate

from now on I will skip talking about our finances. That is a promise and will save myself from looking like a

All very good points. They are a law onto themselves and answerable to no one and it couldn't possibly be more wrong.What really pisses me off is that you don't have the option to clear your own name in this.

That's illogical. Did you forget he bit someone? That's a disgusting thing to do. Did you also forget all the problems he's caused us with that disgusting act.
