It harms the club in terms of reputation, publicity, attracting new fans and sponsorship etc, as well as that a negative image hinders us in terms of appealing against punishments dished out the club and our players. It comes in to a lot of things.Originally posted by Mello View PostI wonder why people care so much about "PR". What's the real, tangible effect of bad PR? I just can't think of a single time a club's bad PR decision over a player incident like this actually harmed that club.The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

I would like to see proof of this following the immediate aftermath of Suarez chomping someone in Holland.Originally posted by Exiled_red View PostIt harms the club in terms of reputation, publicity, attracting new fans and sponsorship etc, as well as that a negative image hinders us in terms of appealing against punishments dished out the club and our players.

If Adidas drop Suarez, and it's looking that way, his value will plummet. Once one high profile sponsor ****s off, the rest will follow. Just look at Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong.Originally posted by Mello View PostI wonder why people care so much about "PR". What's the real, tangible effect of bad PR?

Our best player being dropped by one of his biggest sponsors is definitely harmful to the club.Rome wasn't built in a day, but it wasn't built by the apprentice either.

A universal truthOriginally posted by Exiled_red View PostThe daily mail can **** off.
I could not dig, I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

I get that logic. I can't think of a single time it's actually happened though. I guess that could be that all clubs give in. If it's enough of a money difference, they very well might.Originally posted by Neil Young View PostMoney. It makes a difference, of course it does. Why would sponsors want to associate themselves with a club if it's going to bring them negative PR? It might not drive them all away but it makes the club harder to sell and so lowers the price.

Not sure how you can equate what Suarez did to any of those who parade themselves as mr perfect
His value is still as big as it was before the weekend, And we always knew Suarez was mentally unhinged just like the Ronnie O Sullivans of this world but still always going to be wanted by all and sundry as they are World class talents._____________________________________
Weak willed, Wank or do they have a masterplan?
