Suarez

[HawkTheSeagull]

No point posting my views on it as it will just turn into a debate about whether Suarez is racist or not.

In Suarez's eyes he wasnt racist and Evra got him fined, got him a ban and has badly damaged his reputation so you cant blame him for not shaking hands. Im surprised they went with the handsake tbh.

Anyone know a betting site where you can bet he'll be sent off? It's not on bet365.

 

[Triggaaar]

If he was racist; why is he not before the courts?

Does anyone ever get put before the courts for calling someone a name? It's not like it was a race attack etc.

Rio definitely refused to shake hands with Suarez. It's as clear as day on that video.

You think his repuatation wasn't bad before? He got shipped out of Holland for BITING ANOTHER PLAYERS EAR! Plus his totally classless antics at the World Cup made him a FIRST CLASS TOSSER in pretty much everyone's eyes even before the Racist Abuse incident (which he has admitted too). Absolutely nasty piece of filth.

Yep, they do.

If there was any substance in this then the CPS would be dragging them through the courts.

What has Evra done to be a twerp compared to Suarez who is guilty of forcing transfers in court, biting other players ears, blatently cheating in a world cup quarter final and then celebrating gyan's penalty miss in the most distasteful way. Suarez comes across as a nasty little piece of work.

Patrice Evra on the other hand, have you ever seen his interviews? He comes across like a lovely bloke and is a bit of a joker... What on earth makes him a "twerp"?!

Leading the French squad in strike action during a World Cup perhaps?

Its just all so unnecessary. Shake hands and it moves on, not shaking hands (especially in that manner) and it will rumble on yet further...

No doubt Gus will have something non-controversial and non-divisive to say on the matter.
Can't see this ending 11 vs. 11.

nooooooo

 

[Woodchip]

Why does no one mention the United player next to Ferdinand not shaking hands?

 

[NorthStandN1A]

haha well done suarez! Evra is one of the most spiteful players around. Played him at his own game. And he didn't like it one bit!!

this !!!!!

 

[el_ciddy]

Shaking hands before the match is a joke anyway, people do love drama though so well done Suarez for giving it to them.

Okay, I assume he shook Terry's last week, simply because it is an alleged offence in the hands of the courts which for legal clarity John Terry denies the charge brought against him.

 

[Dowling93]

Rio not shaking hands, acting like he is a model professional, awful player and has had his fair share of controversy

That's completely different, Evra as team captain just stood up for his team mate Gourcoff who was dropped by Domonech because Frank Ribery didn't like him and used to bully him for "being a bit quiet" and refusing to go into a strip club on a night out. It's hardly biting another player or racist abuse is it, it was a footballing issue although admittedly not dealt with in the most professional manner.

 

[severnside gull]

seems Ferdinand refused too - barely a brain cell between the lot of them

Ask John Terry?

Are you Evra's agent?

Are you Evra's agent?

Yes, and I'll be offering him to Gus at the end of the season. Need to make sure that fans will welcome him with open arms

It's nothing personal, and I know Suarez has been fully to blame for this latest scandal, but I just find Evra obnoxious at times - before the racism saga unfolded. Suarez is a rude, cheating bastard, but I'm taking a back seat in all this. No good will come of it.

I don't care if he's not 'before the courts' what Suarez said to Evra was racist. He is racist.
