Evra accuses Suarez of racism

[Craig_H]

We will appeal

Cant say I'm optimistic of improving the sentence

They'll reduce it to x number of games banned and y number of games ban suspended.

I think he'll get the ban halved on appeal. hence the reason its so high in the first place. but this isn't about bans, its about utd and their influence on the governors of our game.

I absolutely hit the roof when I saw the news come across the bottom of the Blackburn game.

it's an absolute joke, we should take the FA to the cleaners.

I wonder if that purple faced c*nt will save Evra from the deserved abuse he'll get at Anfield like he did with Shrek? It wouldn't surprise me, the sh*thouse.

Having read the rules that the charges relate to it seems you could get a 4 match ban for just insulting someone (Suarez' ban is double that because of the race element). Now if everyone complained every time someone said something offensive (e.g. called someone a prick) there'd be no body playing in the Premiership.

As i said, johnson should accuse Rooney of racially abusing him the next time we play them. Evidence or not, witnesses or not, they can apparently find someone guilty. So let's do it to them.

Like Shaggy said earlier, I'm not even that bothered by the ban. I just want Suarez's name to be cleared.

Daniel Taylor taking a swipe at the club's statement and getting pilloried for it on Twitter.

They all are. All the ****ing journos. Most labelling it Garry Cook-esque. Saw one asking if Alan Partridge wrote it FFS.

I'll admit the bit about him having black friends is a bit embarrassing but the rest of it is great.

I'm thinking 6 with 2 suspended on appeal 2 added for the gesture so its 8 anyway.

Well the good thing, if there is one, they can't raise the ban due to appeal.

If he get even a game less as result of appeal we did well under the circumstances.

Is the ban applicable to all competitions or just EPL?

Like our statement said, will the FA bring charges against Evra or not because Suarez didn't hear them?

It seems that Evra's evidence and Suarez' admission have been sufficient to get Suarez banned, surely Evra's admission should be enough to get him banned for the same amount of time. Add to this that he supposedly also accused the ref of being racist he should be looking at a longer ban than Suarez.

The F ergie A ss-ociation strikes again

As far as the gesture goes, they shouldnt have a leg to stand on - photographic evidence of Rooney, Ashley Cole and Gary Neville all doing the same thing and none of them were charged, let alone banned.

It has set a very dangerous precident, which it seems can easily be abused.
