Evra accuses Suarez of racism

[badpiggy]

Rubbish. It's the way it is because we are against a Man Utd player.

Judging by the way we've handled this so far, I think our PR agency have been employing you as a consultant

Seriously though Chris - what happens if this starts to damage us financially? The brand become sullied or even toxic - "racist", parachoial, insular, nostalgia-obsessed, dysfunctional club who haven't won their league for more tha 20 years but exert almost inhuman pressure on their players to win it? Obsessed with local bigger, better rivals?

Twitter is on fire with people posting this video ..

stitched up again ... I hope Gordon Taylor still wants something done when he realizes it was ****ing Evra who instigated this silly bollix

Nicey you cunt Which video?

[badpiggy]

To be fair, he could have been - such is the split-second decision he had to make if he thought Evra was starting to remove his hand, he might have made an instant decision to not go waiting for it.

I think that's exactly what happened and also exactly why he should have had cast-iron instructions to shake the cunt's hand. His instinct was a wrong but completely understandable "well **** you then" when there was a moment of doubt.

[badpiggy]

My thoughts exactly, but I think he was actually going to do it only for Evra making it harder for him to get it done. It's okay to think Evra is a Cunt but shake his hand, glare the cunt down then show him who's in charge on the pitch.

At the end of the day if he'd shook his hand we'd all be talking about football right now. Instead it drags on to the next time we play them and we'll have the whole will he won't he bull**** again distracting us from the job in hand which is beating them ****s.

The cunt Stelling was absolutely beaming when they replayed purple face's interview on SSN. I'm just glad the ****ers don't get any money from me.

I'm glad I don't pay the cunts any money too. Not had it since December. I'd rather stream then pay for that shower of piss that is called football Puditary. Thats me done and the **** adebayor scores and is no longer in my FF team. ****!

I'll just laugh everything for now

Fergie needs to get off his moral high horse and be reminded of this:

Fergie to fork out pounds 2,500 fine for 'racist' jibes at Italians.

ALEX FERGUSON has been warned that he faces the full wrath of UEFA if he utters one word out of line about Juventus.

The Manchester United manager was yesterday hit with a fine and a stinging rebuke for what were described as "racist" comments against Italians.

Ferguson was handed a fine of 5,000 Swiss Francs , which is pounds 2,155, after he made comments about Inter Milan before both legs of the Champions League clash with the Italians.

A UEFA spokesman branded Ferguson a racist after the United manager said: "When an Italian says it's pasta, I check under the sauce."

And the United manager compounded the insult before the second leg, when he said the Italians' tactics would include "scheming, diving, referee-baiting - the full repertoire."

That incensed UEFA, and has led to a strongly-worded warning that the Scottish manager must not revert to such language when his side meets Italian opposition in the semi-finals.

United take on Juventus in what is bound to be a fraught tie, with both sides reverting to the sort of mind games that Ferguson is famous for. But a UEFA spokesman warned the Old Trafford boss last night that they will be monitoring his behaviour closely from now on.

"This was unnecessary provocation of the opposing team, and we cannot accept racism of any kind," said a spokesman.

"We will be watching closely. If Mr Ferguson makes any of the comments again prior to the game against Juventus, then we would be forced to open up another disciplinary action against him.

"We feel Mr Ferguson, who is an experienced manager with a considerable list of honours, should know perfectly well how to handle the media.

"Therefore, he should have been aware of the potentially negative impact of his declarations, which UEFA saw as unnecessary provocation and inappropriate prior to an important match." Ferguson will now have to watch his words carefully in the build-up to the semi-final clash with arch rivals Juventus - particularly because he has already incensed the Italian nation.

Inter's coach who resigned after his team were dumped out of the competition by United, claimed the comments would lead to violence. Lucescu insisted that what Ferguson said was "a sad thing and a bad thing," and he claimed that the Inter fans would target the United manager.

United were given a rowdy reception in Italy, and Ferguson was singled out for attention by the fans.

That could happen again in Turin, but last night a United spokesman insisted that the club accepts the punishment, and the matter is behind them. "These things happen in the heat of preparation for big matches. UEFA have their procedures and we accept it. We are now looking forward to the game against Juventus," the spokesman said.

Ferguson's comments were inspired initially before the first leg of the quarter final tie, when he suspected the Italians of playing psychological games over the fitness of Ronaldo

Yup, without wanting to keep going on about it, if you approach somebody and they move their hand down, you've got a split-second to respond - he's not going to loiter in front of him begging for his hand, the slightest inkling that you're gonna be left hanging and you're going to move on to the next.

The more I see it, the more I think Evra is a crafty little cunt who has played Suarez.

I was thinking the same.

If vera gets away with what he did today with the handshake, it just confirms the FA are "owned" by the mancs...........end of story

[el matador]

[Daniel 7]

And PR doesn't matter does it? The mancs play the game and look what happens. Why do you think they seem to have one over the FA?

They've got a lot more than PR with David Gill on the FA Board.

Me neither but it was posted in the Dalglish thread and I stumbled into it. Luckily I tore myself away after 2 paragraphs.
