KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Suarez charged following racism allegations

ok i probably didn't read it as carefully as i should have. i thought he was found guilty...

If he is found guilty,what are people's opinions of him then?,I personally would be disgusted and will hope he gets hit hard for it.

yea racism doesn't belong on a football field (it doesn't belong anywhere at all) and it doesn't matter if he's a lfc player or not.

but i feel there's no evidence at all at the moment. the john terry situation is different. everyone can see/hear what he said.

Depends if you think Football is disctinct from society in a legal sense or not. For years if I remember rightly, the police never intervened if they saw something illegal going on on the pitch. The first case i remember i think was Duncan ferguson headbutting someone on the pitch I think he even went to jail for it.
I think that football professional football should be seperated from criminal law as it is a contact sport

Not a politically correct view maybe, but interesting subject.

It would certainly take the shine off if he is guilty.

He could be finished at the club,who knows how it will be viewed.


Hmm,might not be the best time for this debate,lets see what happens with Suarez and the south west one

I just cant see the FA going ahead with this unless there is some solid evidence to back it up.
Mind you it is the FA

I believe this is just procedure,Evra wants to persue it so they have to charge Suarez and then prove his guilt or he can prove his innocence,simple,don't know why it has taken a month though or why they are doing it now with Liverpool having a couple of big games coming up.

how would he be finished if hte club is backing him already and from the start? Only if he breaks down and confesses to saying something he denies and to which no one else heard , and to which evera didnt say anything about til after the match?

Bit dramatic that wakka , but as you say its only speculation

The FA has very little to do with justice, look at the managers they have picked for England!

My own opinion is that suarez case and the terry case are being added together like the old reactionaries always do at the FA and they are deciding a long term policy on how to (0rightly) stamp this out in the game before it becomes embarrasing for world cup bids etc. They are corrup as the day is long at the FA
