HaHa! Excellent!

I am still waiting for

"Evra, in an interview with France's Canal Plus, said evidence would support his claim.

"There are cameras. You can see him say a certain word to me at least 10 times. There is no place for that in 2011," he said."

Forgive me for being a bit picky on the subject, the fact that evra insults me by being on TV at all has nothing to do with him being ethnic in any way shape or form.

It's the lying b*stard cheating c*nt I hate.

That's not racist, I hate every lying b*stard cheating c*nt equally, regardless of religion or colour ;-)

Make of this what you will?!

Unfortunately "friend of Suarez" makes his contribution to this debate irrelevant.

All that matters is whether Suarez will get a fair trial or whether the FA will lean toward Man U given the make-up of their board, and whether or not the FA will use this case to divert attention away from their handling of the affair involving the captain of the national side.

Frankly, given that this seems to be an argument about how an English-speaking person interpreted something said in Spanish, I fail to see how the FA can have "proof" of anything. That he used the same word several times is irrelevant - it's highly unlikely that its use gained racial meaning in the mind of Suarez during the course of 90 minutes. For it to have been "racial abuse" there has to have been intent, and I really don't think there is any way that such proof exists. The FA has made a mistake here - they can only antagonize one set of supporters now, and now it's essentially up to them to decide which.

If they make him the whipping boy for the obviously guilty Terry, I'll be highly upset.

I think if experts on racial studies and linguistics from UCLA one of the most prestigious (and most liberal) institutions in the States is supporting suarez's us of the word, I think he has a solid case.

Ferguson accusing Liverpool of drip feeding stuff to the media,all while his mouth piece Daniel Taylor writes about Suarez in the Indo and all while David Gill sits on the board of the F.A.


Why is this never questioned?

if the word is "negrito" i think on the basis if the experts are to be believed, suarez has a strong case.

Yes he does,Chicarito has used it in the past as has Dani Pacheco on twitter,according to people of Hispanic descent it cannot even be used to racially abuse someone.
