Evra accuses Suarez of racism

[Bender]

To be fair Bender, Judging by the time delay in you posting stuff that happened days ago, I can understand people going to a different till !!!!!!

although still funny

[Jack D Rips]

So.

Evra is racially abused 10 times during the match but doesnt see fit to report it to the referee at any time during the game.

Not one of the umpteen TV cameras deployed by Sky TV picked up any of the alleged comments.

None of Evra's teammates ( as far as we know) heard any of the comments.

No member of the public, either at the match or watching it from the comfort of their armchairs, saw anything worth reporting to the police.

At the end of the match the first thing Evra did was give an interview to French TV, in which he made the allegations but said he didnt want to make a big thing out of it.

Minutes later Ferguson gives an interview to Sky TV and claims that Suarez "was diving all over the place".

10 minutes later Evra, accompanied by Ferguson, goes to the referee's room to report the allegations.

Im backing Suarez on this one.

It's a smear campaign IMO.

Roy Keane would agree with you. The most important point to all the success at United and why Fergie is still the manager is that he is the boss. You do what he tells you to do or you are out, finished. IIRC Keane said that in the interview that United binned. If Fergie tells Evra to tell some lies then he will do it. He know what would happen if he didn't.

Except of all the money of course.

If Luis is found not guilty I take it as he's been charged Evra would have no case to answer and walk away without and sanctions against him now?

Of course........and it'll be disgraceful if he's found not guilty.

Civil action for defamation of character if anything

Unless there is evidence that his claims were malicious and untrue, he would. And rightly too.

The moment the puppet master got involved the puppet (the FA) were always surrender to his wishes - IMO, it was inevitable that Luis was going to get charged because of the club (and more importantly, the manager) involved in making the accusation, and the lack of apparent evidence was not going to get in the way.

Ridiculous.

Preposterous.

Bonkers.

Do you believe in ghosts, goblins and aliens too?

Some of the conspiracy stuff in here is utterly mad.

[the rev leeroy brown]

this is all down IMO to sepp blatters comments yesterday. Had he kepot his trap shut this might have blown over but even though (again IMO) suarez has no case to answer the FA have had to at least charge suarez with abuse / racial abuse to appease the clamour building due to recent events.

I beleive the case will be dropped on appeal as will the john terry one (obviously now he will have to face the same charge as suarez) and both players will be verbally reprimanded only.

evra, of course, will get off scot free the cock bag!!

I was going to write something about that too. But I honestly couldn't have put it better.

Do people realise how small time it makes us look when we go on about this sort of thing?

No it isn't. The two events hapened within hours of each other. You don't just charge somebody on a whim because Blatter said something controversial.

[ChesterDave]

Ferguson never gets a meaningful ban despite repeated warnings about future conduct and you wonder why conspiracies emerge?

[the rev leeroy brown]

admittedly the events were not soley down to this not i agree but IMO the FA may have been swayed to act more quickly and decisively than they perhaps may have done had blatter not stoked the fire.

I reackon its probably more down to the fact that Suarez came out in the Uraguayan press and admitted that he had actually said something to Evra. This almost obliges the FA to charge him in order to fully investigate whether what he said was racist.
