Evra accuses Suarez of racism

[Nicey]

[Zapater]

Hey, I was just thinking, in an unrelated note - didn't Fergusson refuse Rafa's hand after we beat them at OT a few seasons back? I'm sure I'm not dreaming it. Suppose he should be banned from managing Man Utd ever again.

[Nicey]

Look at the man... hes a cunt and he is trying his up most best to destroy us any chance he gets, we should return the favor the very first opportunity we get.

[Nicey]

I found this entertaining. Suarez and Evra kiss and make up.

Why lower to his level? Two wrongs dont make a right in this situation. Draw a line and move on.

Isnt it time this thread was locked and we concentrated on Luis Suarez playing for our club?

[MrMichael]

Look what happened last time we locked this thread

Being serious, yeah, I'll lock it as soon as its definite discussion about this isn't just going to spill over into other threads, but for now at least I think some people are still going to want to post about it so we'll let it run a few days more and see where we're at then.

No I hear you but what I was alluding too, is Feguson as far as I can see is totally single minded in protecting his position and his clubs position and he will destroy anybody who gets in the way and also he will proactively go after any threats he perceives, even when he not talking he is attacking such is the way he has set up his little machine. We should realize we are at War with Manchester United and he will not be happy till he has driven us into the ground. Did you see the way he smiled when news of Newcastle getting relegated a few seasons back. If its not Suarez its Torres diving, you could probably go back through all our strikers and he will be on record having a go at the lot of them. This whole episode has open my eyes a little further about how ****ing corrupt this world is and the lengths some people will go to win.

We can all now look forward to our next match and good bloody riddance to this bad rubbish

I agree concentrate on making this club Great once again, making this club the biggest club on the planet, the potential is there.

Luis Suarez stupidity has wounded Kenny Dalglish but healing process is now beginning

For Luis Suárez to let Liverpool down so badly by refusing to shake Patrice Evra’s hand on Saturday, after the unequivocal support he has received from the club in recent months, was quite simply incomprehensible.

What is so disappointing for Liverpool and Kenny Dalglish is that they have taken so much flak, Kenny in particular, for backing Suárez, yet when it comes to the crunch and he is asked to shake Evra’s hand but doesn’t do it, it is obvious that the club and the manager are going to feel let down.

Liverpool were totally right to respond with strongly-worded statements from Dalglish and managing director, Ian Ayre, following Suárez’s apology on Sunday.

Manchester United should also be applauded for the swift and gracious acceptance, and wording, of their subsequent statement, urging everybody to move on.

Hopefully, Evra will also come out and with a similar statement so that we can all draw a line under this.

It has been a bad time for the two clubs and the Premier League, but the actions of Liverpool and United on Sunday showed that the everybody is now determined to move forward.

Quite simply, Manchester United versus Liverpool is the biggest game that the Premier League has got, they are two biggest and most successful clubs around, so none of this has been good for either club or the league itself.

There is no doubt that Suárez caused a real problem for the club with his actions at Old Trafford. Refusing Evra’s hand a massive mistake on his part and he was stupid to do it.

Last week, Suárez was asked by the club whether he would be OK with shaking Evra’s hand and if he would do it and the answer he gave was ‘Yes’.

So for Suárez to then change his mind, whether it was premeditated or a spur of the moment decision, was the worst thing he could have done.

Kenny has really backed him to the hilt in recent months and he even did so after the game on Saturday, without realising what had gone on prior to the match.

Knowing Kenny as I do, I can tell you that he is a very strong and single-minded individual, with his focus fixed categorically on doing what is best for Liverpool.

So the fact that he has come out and said that he did not conduct himself in a way befitting of a Liverpool manager following the United game, saying he was wrong with what he said in his post-match interview, shows how much the Suárez incident has hurt him and the club.

Prior to the match, both clubs had taken strides to ease hostilities and if Suárez had shaken Evra’s hand, the situation would have been much better already.

Suárez is not the first footballer in English football to court such controversy and generate such negative headlines, however, and he is unlikely to be the last.

The English game is littered with cases of star players being involved in major disciplinary issues that have not helped the image of their club or the Premier League.

More often than not, those players have not been sacked or sold. They have remained at their clubs and have been shown the support of their clubs and that is largely because nobody wants to lose their best players, regardless of the baggage they bring.

Suárez now has to make sure that, from this point on, we are only talking about his football and the good things he brings to Liverpool and the Premier League.

But he is such a good player, one who brings so much quality to the Liverpool team, that there is no way that the club will get rid of him.

What has happened this weekend has brought an unwanted spotlight on Suárez and Liverpool, but it really is time to move on.

Three statements issued by the club in one day, from player, manager and managing director, is a sign that the people involved have done what was needed to be done.

Liverpool could not allow this to drag on any further because it was beginning to appear as though the whole world was against the club.

The hope now is that the controversy will begin to go away and everybody can back to concentrating on football.

If Luis Suárez had shaken Patrice Evra’s hand, that process would have been well under way already.

Don't see any sense to censoring conversation on what are legitimate issues.

[Nicey]

Dont you feel its a bit poisonous now and really starting to have a negative effect on everything ... can we just have a Evra free zone for 1 week, better still till after the LG Cup Final

[Norbs]

Sure, but it's down to the existence of the issue that is negative not the fact we're talking about it. Encourage people to talk about other things as well, fine, but to put a taboo on this is utterly absurd. Lock it when this dies down again and people are just talking **** in here, fine, but it's rightly open now...

The most shocking thing for me is how blown out of proportion it has gotten. Everyone is looking to blame Suarez or Evra when the real guilty party are the press and the FA.

The press being the biggest hypocrites in existence who as Tomkins has said, publicly support people convicted of Murder and Rape possibly wrongly, emphasis on "possibly", yet feel they have the right to condemn Liverpool, Suarez and Kenny Dalglish for defending a player who has been found "guilty" by some business men more worried about their own image and Sepp Blatter than being impartial and fair.

Also Fergie is like a vulture, he sees an opportunity to dig his claws into Liverpool and has taken it. Someone in the press who actually has some sense should point out his hypocrisy for him.
