Luis Suárez

[kingfunk]

Moratti thinks the 4 month ban will be halved on appeal............

He must have read my post!

It's really beggining to sound like people think Suarez is the victim again.

He really isn't.

No he's not, he's a dickhead and its all his fault. That doesn't necessarily conflict however with believing, as the guy he bit obviously does, that his punishment is excessive.

True, but can nobody ever let anything go? No wonder our supporters have such a reputation.

If he played for any other club 99% of posters on here would be saying the punishment was too lenient.

It is what it is, no amount of moaning about FIFA changes the fact that Luis brought this on himself.

[I, Ravel Morrison]

What reputation are you talking about? An inflated sense of righteous indignation? And let it go? The club hasn't even officially responded to the incident!

Fifpro wading in now in support. Hopefully more in the game do too and the appeal will see a more appropriate sanction decided on.

What a load of ****.

Eh?

Crap

Missing the point, see MrM.

You know full well we have reputation rightly or wrongly for never accepting any of of our own are at fault. Instances like this and Suarez's other issues are what cause that reputation.

I'm not talking about the club itself, I'm talking about supporters moaning incessantly about the ruling when there is no precedence for it. If Suarez doesn't commit the crime (again) then FIFA aren't given the chance to hang him out to dry.

What a load of ****.



Eh?



Crap

Absolute cods wallop. If he played for the Mancs you'd all be up in arms.

Yup. It shouldn't be that hard to understand even in the black and white world of the Internet.

And what are you basing that on?

They only reason I'd be saying he deserved a longer ban was if I supported a rival team and wanted him suspended for longer but I would be fully aware that the punsihment wouldn't fit the crime. Nowhere ****ing near.

If he played for a foreign team, I'd still be saying it's a disgrace, but great entertainment none the less.

He bit the fella, he should be punished. None of that changes the fact the punishment didn't fit the violent conduct crime no matter how many times he's done it before. None of the other's have their past taken into account when punishing them, if they did Sergio Ramos would hardly ever play. This has been proven in many case's including Zidane who had previous before butting a player in the biggest game in world football. Got a 3 game ban.

Yup. It shouldn't be that hard to understand even in the black and white world of the Internet.

You see, I don't think the punishment is excessive and I maintain the point that if he played for any other club, the vast majority here wouldn't either.
