Uproar over disgusting Suarez bite
[Editor's Note: I don't normally like to feature anything on here about Liverpool, but this is another utterly disgusting episode for that hated club — compounded by the failure of the referee to act — and it has surely incensed all fans of football.]

But them twats will come out with some shite like "That's how you express friendliness and appreciation of skill in his culture"
And this 'Bezebul' gives me a bit of an editing conundrum:
Beelezbub? Devil incarnate...
Or
Alouatta belzebul? — Red-handed howler monkey!?!
[How cool is that last one, with his penalty gaff!!!]

A true living scum. Ugly racist cheating cannibal.
Although a little part of me loves that he plays for the Shite.
Nessie, What would Shanks say? and all that...

Why should we have this dirty, cheating scumbag in our country?
He should be given a 10-match ban as a deterrent.
Disgusting behaviour.

Definitely meant devil incarnate. Images of the Deceiver feasting on flesh in his flaming realm surrounded by his minions.
Spell check didn't catch my gaff and I was entirely too eager to post - couldn't believe what I saw!
I would have taken a ban and beaten the shit out of him. Kudos to Ivanovich. How he didn't just beat that little shit senselessly is beyond me.

Nice studs up challenge from Sturridge there too. What a lovely team.

If the Shite have any last shred of dignity, they would make the first move and issue a club suspension/penalty. Let's wait and see.
20 Posted 21/04/2013 at 17:47:32
Hefty ban for the sewer rat on the way...
21 Posted 21/04/2013 at 17:50:43
22 Posted 21/04/2013 at 17:49:16
Sewer-rat, Sturridge, and that ugly fuck Shelvy booked 47 seconds after coming on with a limb lunge. A club, quite frankly, that is a pale shadow of its former self in more ways than one.

We may not win many trophies but we know our football and can spot a bad apple when we see one, I wouldn't let him play for Everton even if he paid the club to do so.

In fact, because we are moaning at the fact one footballer bites another they will call us bitter blues, deduct us ten points and so they do not go to waste give them to Anfield!!!!!
47 Posted 21/04/2013 at 18:26:17
We cannot allow this cannibal, racist, cheating, diving scum to get Player of the Year. He should be deported back to Uruguay immediately. If he wants to carry on behaving like Hannibal Lecter, he can go back to South America.
48 Posted 21/04/2013 at 18:34:32

Makes you laugh the way the way Liverpool is touted as this high and mighty holier than thou we can't do no wrong football club and yet time and time again when guilty of any wrong doing by its employees they always adopt the whiter than white, "Oh it couldn't possibly have been us, your honour!" attitude. Bunch of cunts if you ask me....
56 Posted 21/04/2013 at 18:42:54
Idiot on 606 saying there's no precedent for a major player biting someone in a big match. Er, er? Sewer-Rat's attack on the PSV fella.
Shite fan on 606, an elbow on Carragher is just as bad as what Saurez is said to have done

Ha, I can't believe I just heard this: shite fan saying its a cultural thing, you know in Uruguay biting someone is a sign of affection and recognition. I kid you not, I just heard it.
So, stamping happens all the time, not condoning it by the way, and exactly how many times in the last two decades has a player bitten an opponent? Er, 47, 26, 11, no I think it's one: sewer-rat, biter, cheater, diver, racist ...

Now we have BR saying he didn't see it, wants to see it again, talks about an elbow on Carragher, doesn't mention Sturridge on Bertrand. Scumbag.
After Felli at Stoke, Lawrenson, Hansen and the rest of the RS TV luvvies were saying it should be a nine game ban, wonder what they will be saying tonight.

I would put money on absolutely nothing happening to sewer rat. Also there was six minutes added because Kevin Friend wanted to be just like Clattenburg, Poll, Clive Thomas etc and arselick them red shite cunts.

With any luck, we won't be playing against the odious, slimley, putrid cunt! (I think I have a few issues with the RS, don't you think?)
Brenda and Gerard should become politicians the utter shite they come out with and actually believe.... cunts!
86 Posted 21/04/2013 at 18:50:17
As for the extra 45 secs on 6 minutes, 'Chelsea were guilty of timewasting." — Hey, this is the Mighty Liverpool we're dealing with here, remember!

88 Posted 21/04/2013 at 19:13:39
I see Ted Rodgers coming out with the usual "I never seen it" line. Well, Sky offered him the chance to look at it and he refused saying he ll look at it later. But the worst was that smug bitter cunt Gerrard saying he's a genius he's been the best player in the league by a mile and all yous want to talk about is the unsavoury incidents..." — too fucking right, you cunt!
God, what a shabby tawdry little club they have become. And people ask me why I'm so bitter. Still it was nice to hear Sourness and Redknapp condemning the prick. I suppose I'll get the usual shite off the pub reds in the morning... "Yeah, yeah, we know all that, but he's brilliant, he's dead funny." I swear to you I'm not a violent man but I'll fucking swing for the first twat that says it to me.
I apologise for the language boys but I've never hated a player this much since Emlyn Hughes.

A lengthy ban from football preceded by community service cleaning up the sewers. He fits in well at Liverpool.
109 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:01:36
Have to say though I don't reckon he was being serious, I think he was only teething..........

Now maybe Suarez's biting offence will not be seen in the same light as the betting scandal (pathetic FA wimps won't have the balls to defend the game when a sky 4 player is in the dock) but it's most definitely comparable to big Dunc's head butting offence. Particularly when you take into account that Suarez is a serial offender.
This game stinks at the moment, dominated by money and sycophants sucking up to the money clubs. Poor Tony Kay and the others were crucified for their mistake, when players were hardly paid a pittance, and their careers destroyed for a moment of madness. The modern day player seems to get away with equally illegal offences and at best get a slapped wrist.
Let's hope the correct decision is made and this incident is prosecuted to the fullest extent.
The game needs a morally correct example to be set.
120 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:24:16
Horrible bastard by the way.

I genuinely can't believe it.
I thought I'd seen it all but it seems I was wrong.
Truly INSANE decision-making.
Literally dozens of staggeringly lame jokes and puns based on biting
Hanging is too good for the lot of you!
(oh and while I'm here, what about that Suarez feller, he's a rum cove eh?)
125 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:24:06

I cannot put into words the level of hatred I feel towards that vile little cunt. Rat is not strong enough. Make a T-Shirt, make a documentary, make a 20-foot statue of him raking his studs down Distin – I don't give a shit. We've fizzled this year but let's finish above that bunch of classless twats.
128 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:29:30
This event drove me to look on a Liverpool forum for the first time in my life just to see what their fans reaction is. Half are ashamed of his behaviour and want rid, the other half are saying this behaviour can be tolerated because of his goals.
I hope to god if Everton ever had a player who acted this appallingly we would do the right thing and send him packing, despite how good they may be!!!
129 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:53:36
What will happen? A slap on the wrist and a winning goal scored in the next derby by this odious little man.
.
130 Posted 21/04/2013 at 20:57:14
Ha, the only thing that will be funnier is how the FA explain a lesser ban than what he got in Holland. I hope Sylvain is waiting for him when he gets back.
131 Posted 21/04/2013 at 21:04:25
132 Posted 21/04/2013 at 21:00:29

I am really interested to see how Liverpool and also the FA deal with this.......

Hitler in goal, a back four of Genghis and Kubla Khan, Goering and Goebbels

158 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:22:44
For me it's not even a case of how long a ban is appropriate... if they have any dignity at all it will be a simple "on yer bike mate"
How can they still want him to play for their club?
If he stays, they lose whatever respect they have in the world of football...
159 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:27:27
161 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:23:18
If by that they mean after the derby they are crooked as hell.
Surely there's no way they can't suspend the rat this week for multiple games?
If it's a weak 1 or 2 game ban they are just as crooked.
NESV / John Henry and Co. will offload this guy. I think we've seen Suarez play his last game in a Liverpool jersey.

If Barton or someone similar had done the same thing, they would have been asking for a lengthy ban. I bet a pound to a bucket of the brown stuff that he plays in the derby.
172 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:50:24
This club killed 39 Italians at Heysel. Why should employing a vampire bother them?
173 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:52:43
If Ivanovich after being bitten had turned around and upper-cut that sub-human piece of dung and proceeded to get on top of him and pummel the shit out of him...
Would Ivanovich have been scorned and castigated?
It still astounds me he didn't jack him right then and there.
I wouldn't have blamed him for a second and would have applauded it.
How can you be bitten and not respond? I would have kicked the crap out of the guy or gone down trying.
I am genuinely curious! Would Ivanovich, if he turned and just put that little shit down, have been criticized?
Banned probably, but my Lord is he not within his rights to respond?
Someone please tell me how people "over there" would have reacted to Ivanovich had he responded violently?
174 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:56:47
175 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:57:35
I'd love to see what this incident and the 5 yellow cards does to their Fair play standings. It's surely got to kill off their chances.
BTW, this is a serious question, I missed the second half... Why did the 4th official give 6 minutes injury time? Was there a long stoppage or something?
176 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:59:33
177 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:02:20
In order for a prosecution the incident needs to be reported to the police by a member of the public.
178 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:59:51
I actually thought the same when it first happened.
I think Ivanovic was just so shocked he didn't respond.
Interesting one though...what would have happened if he'd have just lamped him in the face? Big Dunc got a police award for twatting an aggressor.

180 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:00:41
Being a cheat (handball v Ghana in WC Quarterfinal);
Getting Rodwell sent off;
Handball v Mansfield;
Punching a player off the ball (v Chile),
Twice biting opposition players; and, oh yeah,
Being a racist.
Other than that, the lying, cheating, horrible, obnoxious little cunt makes his way into the Players Player of the Year and is still one of Sky Sports favorites.
Bottom line – he's a scumbag.
181 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:16:30
182 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:04:28
He's no different from Alex Ferguson. they are both ugly cheats and hypocrites of the very lowest calibre imaginable.
183 Posted 21/04/2013 at 22:52:00
I've got no time for Souness (why do Sky have two RedShites in the box?) but he didn't sit on the fence after the game, slated the horrible twat.

That's actually a good idea. At least then the onus is on the players, not the referee.
191 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:32:08
Didn't the ref in a recent game (Arsenal?) blow for HT just as we were about to take a corner?
Curiosity has just had me checking one of their fans forums, what a bunch of semi-literate dickheads!
It was a virtuoso performance by Ratboy today: pushing, pulling, kicking out, handling, faking injury, sarcasm, biting, punching and protesting. The only thing that prevented him scoring a perfect 10 is that he didn't dive today, for a change.
The RS fans must be so proud to cheer him on. As a more discerning football fan, I wouldn't have him playing for us no matter how talented he is.
192 Posted 21/04/2013 at 23:25:10
As for the FA.... less than 7 games means they're more lenient that the Dutch, not sure whether it matters. If they give him more than 8 though they could be viewed as saying bitings worse than racism.....? Hmmmm..... not going to happen.
My moneys on a 5 match ban and a healthy fine. If he turns out against us I give up.

Sorry, I can't move on yet. Murray referred to him as a flawed genius, That actually makes me want to vomit. Pele was a genius(as a footballer) so was Best, yes he was flawed, but only in harming himself. Suarez is an excellent player but isn't fit to lace the boots of Best, Pele, Cruyff etc.
None of those great players were cowards, racists or deliberately tried to end the career of another professional. If Phil Neville wants to be an Everton legend, he should play in the derby, hope that Suarez isn't yet banned, then snap him in two with a tackle that will see him looking for a new career.

You know what gets me? Sturridge puts in a good hard cross actually right towards Pondlife, who gets in a great header to score. He is a dwarf pond life, but he scores headed goals, whereas our two 6 foot centre-forwards never actually win a header. Why is that? Are they just crap, or are our crosses just "lobbed" centres. Bainesy is an exception to this normally.
Or maybe our failure to score is a bit of both.

But what perplexes me is a number of people on this site have expressed a desire that Frank Rijkaard be our next manager. I'm sorry, but I'd have to put Frank into the same 'class' of undesirables as Luis Suarez, Joey Barton, and Lee Hughes (Port Vale).
For those of you too young to remember, google "Frank Rijkaard", "Rudi Voller", and "spit".
208 Posted 22/04/2013 at 05:58:09
There were a few unbelievable call-ins that others touched on.
One RS supporter saying if there are bite marks then fair enough, but if there are no bite marks its just a simulation of biting and get on with it.
Then the fella who said biting is a form of affection in Uruguay.
And finally the person who said punishment would do no good, but that we needed to take into account the psychological aspects of why Suarez did what he did.
Are these people for real? Some folks will go to no end to put blinders on.
I've seen the word "pondlife" a few times. I concur.

Let me make it easier for you. Add up posts on here for FR to be gaffer, some I know, but really? He is low down on the shout-meter.
An absolutely shameful post Chris, fuck knows where you are coming from. Comparing sewerrat/biting to FJ spitting, happens too often, sadly, is like comparing a big bomb to a small bomb.
A sad and pathetic attempt to put a new gloss on sewer-rat. Nice one Chris lad.
212 Posted 22/04/2013 at 06:48:08
But Suarez's behaviour is unbelievable if he had just been on receiving end of an elbow or bad tackle perhaps you could try and defend it. If it was a moment of madness, you could say a rush if blood to the head. But it's instinct and he knows exactly what he's doing. He sees theref coming over, feigns injury and starts limping. Then apologises on twitter — you couldn't make it up
213 Posted 22/04/2013 at 07:39:03
214 Posted 22/04/2013 at 07:36:39
We've made our own bed though - we've allowed diving, holding in the box, imaginary waving of cards, play acting, ritual abuse and bullying of officials to become commonplace in the game and Suarez is just an extension of that.
He is the embodiment of the 'anything goes so long as it gets results" culture the FA has allowed player power to inflict on the game. They should throw the book at him, and the club.
We had the Holy Trinity, they've got Suarez, Gerrard and Carragher! :)

217 Posted 22/04/2013 at 09:07:59
Perhaps by biting his opponents arm he could have screamed to the ref "it wasn't me, it was the one armed man". That could have been the shites defence of him as well, I can see the t-shirts and headlines now!
218 Posted 22/04/2013 at 09:23:26
219 Posted 22/04/2013 at 09:20:15
Next time the referee books one of players for an innocuous foul just remember how many incidents this superstar has gotten away with and how the other lot manage to put in a dubious tackle every week but rarely find themselves booked or sent off.
Suarez is just a reflection as to where the FA, media and football has lost the plot in their never ending chase for cash and status all of them are morally corrupt and fairness or sportsmanship is far from the top of their overall agenda.
220 Posted 22/04/2013 at 08:49:30
Jesus - it's all THIS bollocks that I find more annoying than the incident.
Let's get this straight, HE didn't do a fucking thing by way of apology.
In fact I would suggest he's possibly unaware, even now, that 'he' has apologized.
What DID happened is that as soon as 'Liverpool FC' saw the footage a couple of times, the damage limitation squad went into action.
They probably had the theme from the A-team playing as an apology 'from the player' was put on twitter and the phone-call was made to Ivanovich.
The truth is it's all insultingly insincere and their disappointment is ONLY in what fines/bans might be imposed on the player and how they will be affected.
And how do I (we) KNOW this?
How can I (we) be 100% sure they don't give a flying fuck about the actual behaviour?
Because they bought the player (roll on the drums) AFTER he had done the exact same fucking thing at Ajax.
When they bought him, the scouting report would have been along the lines of..
"Has more than a fucking screw loose. He has actually bitten a fellow professional and disgraced Ajax. But he's a very good player".
I can just imagine blushing Brendan owning a Leopard.
BR: (pretend thoughtful) "Obviously...after I'd painted stripes on it....I believed and hoped...150%!!...that this would be the way things would remain.... but sadly and regretfully...it erm... rained....and it now appears..."
Etc blah waffle bollocks.
221 Posted 22/04/2013 at 09:40:30
"I'm not aware of the incident," Gerrard told Sky Sports. "If there is clear footage then I'll make a judgement and comment when I've seen it, and I haven't seen it."
"He's just behind Ronaldo and Messi as the best players in the world. I'll talk all day about Suarez as a genius and a player."
"I'd rather talk about his performance in the second half and his performances from day one this season. He's been by far the best player in the league.
"When you're playing against Chelsea in big Premier League games, it's going to get SPICY. Other people want to talk about unsavoury incidents, but you're going to get nothing out of me."
Spicy...ha..ha..ha..

As soon as he handballed it, I thought 'he should be sent off but he wasn't.
As soon as he remained on the pitch after the handball, I thought 'I bet he equalises'.
As soon as he bit Ivanovic, I thought 'I definitely bet now he will stay on'.
With ten seconds of the 97 minutes left (even though it was supposed to be 96 minutes), I still thought 'I bet he scores'. He did score.
You could not make this one up, you really could not. Even the ref, didn't want to know. 'Err, ref, the guy just bit me, so you want to take a look ref?' 'Err, no because that would then mean that I would need to send him and then Liverpool might not be able to equalise now would they son?'
LFC don't have the character or class to ban him themselves. Far too cynical for that. They get him to 'twitter' an apology. I love it. Twitter is now accepted as a virtuous and sincere mode of communication. Forgot popping the question to one's loved one with a ring and a bended knee, just use twitter!!
We get news of a fine from LFC (which means as much as someone taking the community chest card from me in a game of Monopoly) and some sickening and cynical pledge of money to charity. When did Suarez realise he was sorry? When he saw Sky News? When the LFC PR engine got into action? Surely he would have realised immediately after biting Ivanovic? Oh no, that would have been impossible, could he still needed to score an equaliser didn't he.
Chelsea fans, if you do not qualify for 4th place by just 2 pts, refuse to go to a single match next season.
Everton fans, if you do not finish above LFC by one pt or by goal difference of 1 goal this season, refuse to go to a single match next season.
The FA needs to stop treating the lifeblood of football like idiots. FA, your 'Respect' campaign, should start first and foremost with the FANS.
233 Posted 22/04/2013 at 11:38:25
I see the PFA and now the FA have offered him counciling!!!
Liverpool using the campaign for justice for the 96 to gloss over this creature's behaviour is reprehensible. That is just another example of how that club is tumbling. They already lost their class, how much further down can they go?
234 Posted 22/04/2013 at 12:01:12
235 Posted 22/04/2013 at 11:47:31
But what about the club; what about LFC..................shouldn't THEY be accountable for failing to control one of their players!
Surely nothing less than a huge fine and points docked should be dished out here.
I'm certain if this was one of our players against a London club that is exactly what we would get!

Pathetic, and the same cliches came out of Brenda's gob too, "Unacceptable, "dealt with internally" They won't do anything whatsoever, they've said sorry to reduce the ban, now they'll forget about it.
Have to say, Jamie Redknapp was funny: "He was the only player in the Liverpool team that showed any appetite"
Gerrard:"This is what happens when it gets spicy"- Maybe Ivanovic's arm had a bit of Tobasco or sage on it if that is what he means.
I'm sure Brenda has eaten some Chelsea players in the past, I mean what's happened to Adrian Mutu recently, or Metaja Kezman? Obviously been digested by Brenda.
245 Posted 22/04/2013 at 13:10:40
However, the mere fact that he was allowed to stay on the field and score a equalizing goal was an indictment of the football officials so you can't help but feel he will not get the deserved punishment judging by the way the league has treated the Macmanaman and Aguerro incidents.
The club should have done the honourable thing and suspended him immediately but they didn't have the guts. We all know he should have been sent off when he knobbled Mirallas early in the season which I believe cost Everton dearly. Certainly he should be thrown out of English football.

250 Posted 22/04/2013 at 15:15:42
Then the RS come out with, " not befitting a Liverpool player" "this club has higher moral standards" shite. No they fucking don't, Heysal's just one, Michael Shields whatever is name was, Barcelona Whore house, Gerrard on Naismith "he slid under me," Suarez on Evra, then the T Shirts thing, then rat face refuses Evra's hand.
Fuck me they fine him 2 weeks wages, with it going to the Hilsborough Foundation to try to make it all better, fucking pigs. As Eugene Says, they actually bought him when he was banned for biting someone else FFS. If a kid bites someone in school the parents are called in. If I bit someone in work I'd be sacked on the spot. Bad the bastard for life and fine him however much he has in his bank account.

252 Posted 22/04/2013 at 15:30:34
Does LFC have no shame whatsoever? It's so fucking clear what's going on -
"We need him. We gotta think of something sans a ban. Ok fine him - but not too much we don't wanna piss him off."
"What do we do with the money?"
.....
"Hillsborough families!"
"Awe that's just fuckin brilliant! Well done!"
They honestly don't give a fuck about this at all and are in PR / damage limitation mode instead of do what's right mode.
This is surreal and I hate them more than ever before.
See Pablo Connelly's comments re Moyes and the Felli head butt. Compare that with the RS response to Suarez biting (!) another player.

This is the second time he has bitten an opposing player, and received a 7 match ban, his track record is appaling both here and prior to coming to England. I would be amazed if he has anything less than a 10 game ban. Obviously he misses the next 2 games because of 10 bookings so will miss the first 6 games next season.

Yeah Ayre, he looked dead sorry hugging Stevie-me end-of-match and pumping his fist to the shite hordes when trotting off the pitch for his marmite on toast.
Ayre: 'Most important thing is we acted swiftly' and Brenda will now work on the discipline side of Luis's game.
2 weeks wages you desk cretin, 2 weeks ages, swiftly and decisively and now the slate is clean and all is hunky dory. We can now walk on together and I will announce today that we at the club have established a find and programme to help players at any club who feel that one day they might bite an opponent. We at this club will not tolerate or encourage unprofessional conduct of any sort, we would never, for instance, spend 35 million sponds to buy a player who had been found guilty of biting an opponent. Our morality is our character, it is who we are and what we wish to be judged on
Ayres to Brenda: don't mention the bite, I just did but think I got away with it (loud pop as champers drizzles down the bottle), let's keep the heads down shall we old chap for the next day or two, and perhaps we might be able to get a few pictures of Luis sitting at the bedside of a dying child who supports us and make sure he looks really really concerned and sad, can we do that, can we, can we ........
I had thought that sewer-rat had sunk as low as sub-human can go. Head-butting a ref, racist abuse, the Ghana penalty and sick celebrating at the miss, openly admitting to cheating, diving, biting opponents on two separate occasions. But now we have this. Hey gaffer me got bossy thought, me says give the pounds in my fine to the bank of the Hillshead 76, so I look real good and not like bad bandit from Mexico in Clint Eastwood movie. I not be touched now as I make grand gift for humanity and Hillshead 76. I human hey boss. I love people. Maybe we get me in super-fast car to go to Hillshead and I look sad by statue to the 76, like little lost boy, look boss like this. Luis. Yes boss, good thoughts, eh? Luis it's the Hillsborough 96 but this is a boss idea, link your sorrow and sadness and suffering and yes your humanity to the deaths of those 96 thoroughly decent human beings. I like it. Just texted Ayre and got the nod. We'll run with this. We are a thoroughly decent club aren't we Luis. Spirit of the boot-room and all that. I'm sure that Ronnie Moran would agree with this decision. Note to Ayre: remove Hansen and Lawrenson's entitlements to match tickets and slap-up meals.
I got it Brenda. Mr. Ayre? Get this painted near the Hillsborough memorial will you. 'Liverpool FC: a family club with family morals'
Nice Ian humble, touching, poignant. Shanks and Bob and Joe would be very proud of us. We are a great club with a great history and this swift and decisive response to Luis's little nip on that serb fella links us to the great past of this great club. I'm boss at coming up with this great club and great past stuff aren't I, eh. Pity we can't use the two week fine for that ace holiday for us and the wives. But the Hillsborough thing is good, very very good.
257 Posted 22/04/2013 at 16:25:06
I'm surprised you took exception to my post. I can only conclude you did not read it properly, since you seem to think I am trying to 'put a new gloss on a sewer rat'. Let me break down for you what I said, and I'll capitalise the words you seem somewhat egregiously to have ignored...
"Interesting to see the outrage on here towards Suarez (great footballer, HORRIBLE 'MAN') and statements to the effect that it's hoped we'd never tolerate a player of his ilk wearing our strip - A SENTIMENT I CONCUR WITH, I hasten to add."
Did you see what I did there? I put the word "man" in inverted commas, as if to question whether Suarez is even worthy of the description. I also finished by saying I AGREE with the notion that I'd be appalled should Everton ever sign a player of his ilk.
"But what perplexes me is a number of people on this SITE have expressed a desire that Frank Rijkaard be our next manager. I'm sorry, but I'd have to put Frank into the same 'class' of undesirables as Luis Suarez, Joey Barton, and Lee Hughes (Port Vale)."
Do you notice I used the word "SITE", i.e. as opposed to "thread"? I was referring to comments made elsewhere on ToffeeWeb, outwith the present discussion. So your comments do seem rather misplaced.
Can we move on now and agree that Suarez is a complete an utter cock, and certainly not the sort of person Evertonians should be falling out about. I promise to reserve further comment about Rijkaard for other discussions, although sadly I expect to have to remind some of my fellow Blues that we need to be careful when saying who we want at our club, since some of them have history, and not the sort we want to see woven into the story of EFC. We should leave that sort to the Red Shite, the natural home for cnuts.

Does he realise how boring he sounds when he talks about a club with a great tradition that managed to flog a player for £50 mill and in 5 minutes waste £35 mill of it on a loanee at West Ham. Lots of admirable tradition there Brenda, bags of it. History of exceeding themselves at stooping forever lower.
You can't buy, teach, or coach class. LFC have none of it and never have as I far can recollect.
266 Posted 22/04/2013 at 20:14:04
This shameful act is perpetrated on the day when the collective memory is focussed on one truly heroic lady and Mr Suarez decides conducts himself in this manner. Then he shamelessly decides to donate his "fine" to the Memorial Fund. Is there nobody at the club possessed with the wit to confront Mr Suarez with the fact that this kind of shallow "gesture" is an insult to the whole Hillsborough tragedy?
Does he think that money is the best or most appropriate thing he can do? Perhaps in the shallow, money obsessed and indulged world in which he is cocooned he does think that? But perhaps, more appropriately he could start by conducting himself in a manner that is worthy of those who literally gave their lives for those who wear the shirt he has on his back - a shirt, a memory, a tradition that he so regularly and so mindlessly besmirches seemingly in every game he plays.
Perhaps with their world-wide status Liverpool could have taken a leaf out of Ajax's book and rid themselves of this undesirable and make a stance against this kind of creature who besmirches the game? Of course it would "cost" them but until a stance is taken to reclaim some of the authority and "power" in the game the collective costs will be immeasurable.
A final point with regards to Everton themselves. This week our Chairman conducted himself in a way that brought great credit to himself, the club and the city as a whole. He reclaimed some of the unifying characteristics that once so characterised the clubs but which have been slowly eroding over the years.
Then along comes this odious character Suarez to turn the wonderful sympathy and empathy into the quite understandable bile that is rightly heaped on one of the most unpleasant people ever to populate the game. The sooner there is an end to him the better.

I would like to think that if an Everton star did what he did after been given several chances over the past few years, had courted controversy through repeated disgusting behaviour, that my club would say, "Enough" He is not of the moral standard we can accept at this football club."
That Liverpool FC have backed this individual yet again, is in itself a dreadful reflection of the shocking morals of Liverpool football club. Their fans know he should be sacked. In any other job in the world he would be, in 90% of the worlds clubs, he would be.
Liverpool are in another league. As a scouser that saddens me because you can never defend the actions of such a player with platitudes and support to help him change. You get rid because he drags you through the gutter.
The club has lost its respect, lost its way and any shred of morality and doing the right thing.
They may be called Liverpool Football Club, but they are not from my city any more.

Much as I despise that club and all it represents, you see how this encapsulates the collapse of our game and how it has become the cynical, corporate game we now watch. That club used to have some dignity and would have dealt with this incident swiftly, Shankly and Paisley wouldn't have put up with this insects behaviour. However, gear change to the despicable Dalglish era, and you have Barnes saying lets see if we can get away with this through some FA loophole, like the referee saw it so we can't do anything in retrospect. An attitude like that is as shameful as the act itself.
Ian Ayre has gone nearer the Barnes route, a fine paid to the Hillsborough Familes. That's trying to buy favour with our loveable, slow neighbours, short and simple.
It's the actions of the Sky generation. A striker should go down in the box if he feels contact, not if he is fouled, just contact. Every manager always see's fouls against his team, and never by his team. It's cynical, with not a shred of the pride and dignity that used to be so prevalent in our game.
I hope the FA suspend him well into next season, but more than that, I hope they punish Liverpool for their lack of class. They won't, because it's them. If it was us... well, let's not go there.
Everton now need to show some class and dignity. Moyes needs to make his mind up, sign/or not sign his contract. We need to admit our mistakes (negative tactics, not showing up at Reading, Norwich, Southampton and Sunderland) and move forward as a united club. Show that other club how a club that cherishes its traditions acts. I hope we do this.... but again, I'm not holding my breath as the OLD game I love, is being destroyed by the NEW corporate cynics who now own it.

Ive generally observed the whole event with a degree of mirth but when I look back at my own comments suggesting the FA 'throw the book at him and the club' etc they are frankly a bit over the top.
I think the issue many fans, and we especially, have is we know Suarez is a cheat, and theres a gut feeling he's going to get away with it.
And to an extent he, and LFC have. By remaining on the pitch he earned Liverpool a point, and cost Chelsea two which could really affect their season - which is why he sees his behavior as legitimate.
But as far as the actual offence was concerned he's not ended a players career or inflicted a life changing injury on another player, he's done something more associated with the school playground than anything else.
Maybe our moral compasses are simply aligned to different points - he lives by his own rule book, whereas we believe he should live by the agreed rule book, and this is what causes the real friction.
As such, if we believe in the rule book, he should be banned for violent conduct and bringing the game into disrepute and given whatever punishment the agreed rules believe those offences should receive.
After that we move on, the silver lining for us will be that the more he does it the more pressure he and his club will come under - which is what we are seeing now - and if they don't focus on improving his, and their own behaviour, the more and more focus will be put on them.

Also, one thing about Ferguson was he took abuse as well and I never saw him complain or dive. Indeed despite some horrific injuries, I can not recall him ever needing a physio on pitch or going off injured.
278 Posted 23/04/2013 at 08:36:40
279 Posted 23/04/2013 at 08:40:45
All this crap about the tradition of Liverpool etc blah blah blah – maybe you could just about swallow it but not when they bought the player after his previous indiscretions.

Brenda is just a public front and coach with little or no control at the club. The pricks at the FA will have their 5-course meals at FA HQ and quaff some wine whilst all along we know they too will look at the exposure around the world this little prick causes. The FA will see this as worldwide exposure, no matter how disgraceful.
Rant over.
284 Posted 23/04/2013 at 08:47:37
They learnt their lesson from the race row disaster, and the Yanks have warned them to go on a charm offensive, admit liability, and top it all off with a grand gesture — exactly the opposite of how they behaved during the spat with Evra.
FSG may have no idea about football, but Yanks are kings of spin.
285 Posted 23/04/2013 at 08:51:34
There are old school pro's coming out saying how disgusting it is, how it wouldn't happen in their day, when men were men and retribution was meted out by breaking each others legs instead. Now I understand where they are coming from but when you look at it in the cold light of day....
286 Posted 23/04/2013 at 08:53:55
Mark #145 " The FA will see this as worldwide exposure, no matter how disgraceful". My take is that the FA will be as embarrassed as everybody else and will see this as damaging rather than good press. It's a foreign player but it's on their watch. We all hope they act swiftly with the independent panel and the penalty.
287 Posted 23/04/2013 at 09:01:50
288 Posted 23/04/2013 at 09:04:07
I'd say based on our previous record, even when playing against 10-men or their 3rd choice 'keeper, they've every right to be confident we'll choke as usual.
Hoping we don't, but whilst the Cannibal's absence can only help us, we've still got to get at them in what, ironically, is becoming their "cup final".

Precisely, they will not be worried at all about Suarez missing the game. They know if we go into the game with our usual inferiority complex attitude, the result will be the same.
The manager gives this impression every time we play them — lay down, roll over and have the shit kicked out of you.

292 Posted 23/04/2013 at 09:35:58
As for Duncan, he reacted violently and openly to being held, even obstructed; can you imagine what HE'D have done to Suarez in that situation?
Sports psychologist Dr Thomas Fawcett on Suarez being offered "anger management counselling."
"It's in the man," he says. "I would think that in five years' time if there was a certain nerve hit or chord rung with Suarez in a different situation he would react in the same way."
I'm with Christine on LFC, their ethos and actions; annoyed and ashamed they bear the name of my city — they are bugger-all to do with me.

Their season is over. They are not as hung up about a derby win as we are.... after all, they have had plenty. The FA will hand out a six game ban and with phony good grace the RS will accept this... thus ingratiating themselves with the media again... along the lines of "noble LFC accept punishment etc etc."
Ratboy will miss, thus, four fairly meaningless games at the end of this season. He will miss two at the start of next and return refreshed after a nice long rest. And his first game back will be against us in all likelihood.

What about Cantona, Tyson, any violence in Rugby they can research, a tackle by Vinny Jones, feck me, one even quoted Keegan & Bremner!
What have any of the above got to do with their nutcase? It's not like this was a one-off incident, the psycho has done it before FFS!
Wait for the moaning when he receives a 10 game ban, they all deserve each other, wallowing in their own pit of self despair, and that's just the ressies!

It will be roundly applauded by the media, no doubt, but anyone with any intelligence can see it's a media stunt to put a positive spin on the incident.
If a donation was to be made, it should have been made silently and have been received without comment.
But no, once again, Liverpool play their Get Out Of Jail Free card.
Disgusting.

All over the country - and, in fact, the world - there are football fans absolutely convinced that the club they happen to support is the best - and they can give you plenty of 'good' reasons why! Fulham and Doncaster fans are just as proud of their teams as we are of ours. Are they wrong to be? No, of course not. It's subjective, it can't be anything else. Everton are my team, that's all - nothing less, but nothing more either.
All this name-calling is a bit medieval to me. So, they're shit and we're great, is that it? Maybe we should start a war? Yeah, that really pans out well in the world at large, doesn't it? We're right, you're wrong. Let's have a hate-in. Bombs away...

307 Posted 23/04/2013 at 12:22:23
When the city of Liverpool rightly boycotted the Sun newspaper, it has had the unintended consequence of owners and editors running scared at the first sign of customer dissatisfaction and when you have a large savvy group of fans who are well versed in campaigning for their own agenda the media will pander to that group rather than taking each story on its merits and pointing out the rights and wrongs or it.
By the time the next round of TV rights come up, the Manchester clubs our loveable friends and Arsenal will be demanding individual payments rather than a shared income from TV revenues. Greed is at the root of the problem and like every good soap opera, football needs its villains in order to fill the airtime and column inches, it's a sad state of affairs but it is the world we live in and therefor players like Suarez are almost beyond the laws of the game because of who they play for not because of who they are or what they do.

I don't know if you're from the City, but the red hordes have a massive sense of entitlement, and NEVER miss an opportunity to rub our noses in it.
Just listen to any local radio phone-in, and you will be able to gauge the superiority complex they all possess.
99% of the twats have never set foot in the ground BTW, and only support the team because they won everything in the 70's & 80's. The comeback in Istanbul gave them a whole new generation of glory-hunting non-match going "fans."
They believe they have become the victims of a media witch-hunt, because they are no longer winning. They think the world is against them, and believe Sky, the BBC and every radio station has a hidden agenda against their club. They are too thick to realise the media has been polluted by ex-redshites, and the club is defended at every turn, and receives more exposure than even the Champions. No team finishing 6th or 7th has so many matches televised live, and given them millions more in earnings than us, even though we were chasing a C.L. place.
They never question their past actions, and as their current crop show all too well, they don't care who they hurt, as long as they win.

On the way into work this morning, TalkSport gave the odds on certain teams winning the title next season. The fella read out the odds for Man Utd, Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea, Tottenham and wait for it, LFC. We did not get a mention yet LFC did. They won it in 1990 right? Us in 1987. Same era.
Mathematically speaking, we are closer to the summit of that table than they are, so why don't we get a mention? We won't win. Neither will they. But I want the same mention on credit as LFC at the very least please.
That isn't the fans waging war, Kevin, that is the cogs of the establishment feeding the over-entitlement engine. When that is rammed down the throats of fans for decades, you can start to see why on blogs like this fans try to level it out a touch.
Did the media in the 90s, when Everton were on the wane, plaster the sports pages with how we should be entitled to more? LFC haven't been champions for 23 years... yet, to hear the fans and certain corners of the press, you would think they won the league 2 years go for 8 years running and now suddenly and inexplicably lack form.
No one wants to wage war — they just want fair game and fair sport...

Back in the day when these foreign players didn't exist in the English game, the football was just that — football. Okay, we know nothing stays the same but what is going on these days and a lot going unpunished by inept officials and dodderers in the FA and Fifa is totally unacceptable.
Many of these foreign imports believe what they do in their own countries is quite okay to do when they come to England. Sadly, it has transferred it's ugly head into a lot of English players now and the clutching and grabbing in the penalty area is being accepted instead of being dealt with. Referees just don't have the bottle to call a penalty and would sooner call a foul against the forward as the cowardly way out of a penalty area wrestling match.
Ratboy should have the book thrown at him as an example to other nutters who would besmirch English football just as Aguerro should have been punished for his drop kick on David Luiz.
316 Posted 23/04/2013 at 13:40:14
I fully realise that means I no longer have to put up with the local enmity, so it's kind of easy for me to say things should be different, and maybe in a way I'm not entitled to any more. But, on the other hand, I think I'm more objective.
Is anyone seriously - I mean SERIOUSLY - saying that fans of the Blues are somehow a different species than fans of the other lot? If so, I think they want to get out more - travel the country, travel the world, get a bit of perspective! They might well conclude that Liverpudlians of whatever hue have a fuck of a lot more in common than not.
317 Posted 23/04/2013 at 13:57:00
Brent #188- Of course it's contradictory. they think they are being shafted, and everyone is against them. Whilst in reality, they receive the most exposure, live televised games, and media bias more than any other team in their League position would ever expect.
318 Posted 23/04/2013 at 14:06:26
I saw Brendan Rogers on Goals on Sunday the other week. It came to the point where they showed the Everton highlights. They asked Brendan what he thought of Everton and Moyes. I can't remember his words exactly but he kind of grouped us together with them as being a team who didn't have millions to spend and had to find ways to cultivate players. What planet is he on and why does he always sound like he's got a gobstopper in his mouth? I must admit though, he is one of the less despicable managers they've had in recent times.
319 Posted 23/04/2013 at 14:18:57

I have known a few Everton fans who were so totally biased they found a way to justify every wrong committed by an Everton player.

Agree with Steve, a general feeling, evinced by the banner "Scousers This End" at the semi. I asked a Liverpool "fan"...who was the manager before Shankly? His reply "Before my time, give us a clue." I mimed throwing 3 darts. "Ah, got it, Jocky Wilson."
325 Posted 23/04/2013 at 15:49:49
Now us on the other hand, we know our history, and it's enough to make our heart go oooooh, we don't care what the RS says, what the heck do we care?, cos we only know that there's gonna be a show when the Everton Boys are there!
I thank you.
326 Posted 23/04/2013 at 16:58:44
I can be in company with people I have never met before,within 10 minutes I can usually tell if they support Liverpool.Not saying I am right every time but probably 80/90% of the time.
There is just something about them that tells you what they are.
327 Posted 23/04/2013 at 19:17:25
Liverpool cannot come out of this well as they cannot sack him and feel they have to support him.
328 Posted 23/04/2013 at 21:10:40
1 There are set medical procedures following bites - Ivanovic should have insisted on what all police and health professionals are bound to have
2 The Premiership has duty of care to its players. They should not allow any other player take the field if Suarez is named on the Liverpool team sheet. From and Health and Safety point of view the risk is too great.
Would you play in the park on a Sunday afternoon with a person who has this kind of history ? No.

When you live on a farm
And you bite someone's arm
That's a Suarez
When your forehead is wide
And your teeth are offside
That's a Suarez
When you dive for a pen
Over and over again
That's a Suarez
When your gums are so tight
Like you've strained for a shite
That's a Suarez

A red shite at work was trying to compare it to the McManaman/Aguero incidents and he got torn a new one, even his fellow kopite told him you can't compare them, to be fair.
337 Posted 24/04/2013 at 09:18:48
When your foreheads too wide, and your teeth are offside, thats a Suarez.
When you dive for a pen, and then do it again, thats a Suarez.
When you handle the ball, and say you've done f##k all, thats a Suarez.....

Take a look, he fell over and pushed the rat's head away.
343 Posted 24/04/2013 at 10:24:30
I'm starting to like him more all the time:
"I dare Luis Suarez to even try and bite me in the derby. Cos he'll get volleyed right into the Kop the horrible fucking sewer rat"

346 Posted 24/04/2013 at 10:18:02
When you say "support" do you mean attend matches, know the story of John Houlding and their beginnings, history pre-Shankly, suffer badly for days after a defeat, directly relate their mood to how the team is doing? or..
"I'm a red, me, well, that's the name of the city innit?"
"Can't get a ticket, mate"
"What's the 2nd Division?
"That was Chelsea fans; anyway the club warned UEFA about the ground and ticketing"
"5 times is better than 20"
"Cilla Black, Jimmy Tarbuck, Ricky Tomlinson, Sue Johnston...."?
347 Posted 24/04/2013 at 10:47:05

Suarez The Rat has great big teeth dear
And he plays for, theeee Red Shite
Just a scum bag, is Suarez The Rat dear
Has he ever, had a proper fight ?
When the Rat bites, with his teeth dear
You'll catch Weals Dear overnight
Picks up your arm babe to take a chunk Dear
Sinks his teeth in, with all his ratty might
Then The Red shite, fine the Gobshite
The higher archy, are also a gang a pricks
They say "Everything, will be forgotten"
"If we mention, the 96"
Just to finish a final thought Dear
Isn't Suarez also, cheating cunt ?
But they just stand by him, and watch him do it
Oh I forgot babe, he's also a racist Runt

Unreal!
They really are a bunch of bastards and Suarez is their Bezebul.
