      I couldn't bring myself to listen. I think it was probably the first time that Gough and Durham didn't have polar opposite views. Suarez brings people together. For that he deserves credit

          Get rid they said.

          But tbf Gough did say LFC need to keep him.

          And that knobhead Durham was just taking it to another level, like Suarez had carried out some kind of atrocity.

            They could go the whole hog like in his racism case and have two mancs who are good mates with fergie on the 'independent' 3 man panel

              I caught a bit where he was going to go into 'Have liverpool fans got nothing constructive to say'. I switched over and started listening to good old Taylor Swift to calm me down

              Anyone who rings Durham who is half way intellectual and can pick him up on his bull, Durham just interjects and says ' what are you on about fella' and they get cut off. Idiot

                We all know a lengthy ban is coming and it's exactly what the FA and other LFC-hating managers want (Fergie, Fat Sam...)

                If Suarez gets a ban of epic proportions to make an example of him, how sweeet would it be if we started off next season straight out of the blocks and firing on all cylinders through a combination of Sturridge, Borini, Coutinho, Gerrard, and whoever survives the summer cull...

                Managers like Fergie are currently grinning like Cheshire cats at the idea that we'd be without Suarez until the end of September...

                  Gus to the rescue, once again:



                  Gus Poyet has hit out at the exaggerated reaction to Luis Suarez's bite on Branislav Ivanovic and is not sure whether the Liverpool striker will stay in the Premier League.

                  Suarez has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association after biting Ivanovic in Sunday's game against Chelsea, while Liverpool have fined the player but insisted he will not be sold.

                  Brighton & Hove Albion manager Poyet admits there is no defence for what his fellow Uruguayan did but believes the criticism has been too harsh, especially after Suarez issued a swift apology.

                  "We exaggerate too much," Poyet told The Times. "Luis knows what he has done, he knows he shouldn't do it and it would be better for him, of course, not to have any more issues this year.

                  "There are players who have done terrible things and apologised after two minutes and have been portrayed as a hero for apologising quickly.

                  "Luis Suarez apologises immediately and nobody believes the apology. It's sad. Are they living their personal lives by the same rules? I don't like that. There is plenty of hypocrisy in football now.

                  "He tried to bite someone in the arm; no harm, really. A little pain. But if a player goes over the top and tries to break a leg? That's good because we are strong and we like the tackle.

                  "That's where we are in England. I know where I am living, and I adapt and I live with it."

                  Poyet could understand why Suarez might consider moving to a different country if he becomes too unpopular.

                  He added: "Do you want him in England? Yes or no? If everybody is against him, he will leave. I know him quite well. I don't know how he is managed, so I can't comment on that.

                  "It's difficult to have Luis playing at that level with a different character. You need to play the whole package and manage him the best way you can and get the best out of him without any other issues.

                  "You need to be with him daily and know where he is and in which country he is playing football. It is not just about the 90 minutes we see. I think right now the mental side of football is the most important part."

                  Poyet accepts that the way Suarez plays his football will divide opinion, but believes he is often misunderstood by English audiences.

                  "They think they know the reasons why he plays how he plays," Poyet explained. "He learnt to play in a certain way and he will do everything possible to win a football match; sometimes too much. He knows that better than you and me.

                  "Some people like him, some people don't. If he plays for your team, you will probably like him and if he plays against your team, more people will hate him."

                    Few people suggesting he did it maybe to get out of the club, because there was no bad tackle from Ivanovic and it wasn't in retaliation to anything.

                      He is spot on about the apology. It seems that is not enough though, especially for the media who are going to milk every last drop of this story.

                          Wherever did you hear that? What a ridiculous theory.
                          .
                          Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

                            Gus Poyet comments will just get mocked due to him being a fellow Uruguyan. That's a given. But he is right.

                            Suarez is going nowhere. He owes the club and Ayre has come out and said they aren't going to sell him.

                              We should have banned Suarez the rest of the season as I said. A mistake not doing that and it will get used against us a lot. The ban would have been pointless but it would have made us look better.

                                I think the PR by the club over this has been very good. They reacted quickly and in the right manner. No point us banning Suarez. FA will just add onto it. They have been gunning for him for a while. Other players do acts of violent conduct that don't get seen by Refs or punished by the FA. They don't go round banning their own players do they
