  1. Luis Suarez case: Ouseley calls Liverpool 'hypocritical' (From BBC) Kick It Out's Lord Ouseley has labelled Liverpool "hypocritical" over their handling of Luis Suarez's eight-match ban for racially abusing Patrice Evra. Liverpool players wore T-shirts in support of Uruguayan Suarez - a move Ouseley has called "dreadful". Lord Ouseley also said Reds striker Suarez's apology was "lamentable". The anti-racism campaign's chairman said: "Liverpool need to take a hard look at themselves. Suarez's attempt at a belated apology is lamentable." Continue reading the main story Liverpool are not appealing against the Football Association suspension and £40,000 fine imposed on Suarez by an independent commission for his comments towards Manchester United defender Evra at Anfield on 15 October. Suarez did not mention Evra by name in his apology and has also stated that he would carry out the suspension "with the resignation of someone who hasn't done anything wrong". Kick It Out had previously commended Liverpool for choosing not to appeal against the ban. A statement on its website on Wednesday said: "We commend Liverpool FC in bringing closure to this matter, reaffirming its commitment to an unequivocal, zero-tolerance approach towards discrimination in football." However, Lord Ouseley, who was chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality from 1993 to 2000, wrote in the Guardian: "Liverpool need to take a hard look at themselves and how they have responded to the complaint and the investigations into the allegations of abuse in the Patrice Evra/Luis Suarez case. "Throughout the entirety of the proceedings, over the past three months, all we have heard are denials and denigration of Evra. "Since the publication of the 115-page report of the findings of the FA's independent commission, Liverpool's vitriol has increased. "Suarez's attempt at a belated apology is nothing short of lamentable. "I cannot believe that a club of Liverpool's stature, and with how it has previously led on matters of social injustice and inequality, can allow its integrity and credibility to be debased by such crass and ill-considered responses. "Liverpool have been particularly hypocritical. You can't on the one hand wear a Kick It Out T-shirt in a week of campaigning against racism when this is also happening on the pitch: it's the height of hypocrisy. "Liverpool players wore a T-shirt saying: 'We support Luis Suarez', seemingly whatever the outcome. This was a dreadful knee-jerk reaction because it stirs things up." Piara Powar, executive director of Football Against Racism in Europe, believes the FA would be within its rights to charge Liverpool and its manager Kenny Dalglish over their handling of the situation. "Liverpool have constantly undermined the investigation and its outcome," he told BBC Sport. "They have been disrespectful to the FA and questioned its integrity and neutrality. "errrrr" "If a manager had done that in a post-match interview the FA would have brought disrepute charges." It is understood that the FA has no plans to charge either Liverpool or Dalglish. (I would love to see them try)
  2. The Luis Suarez racism case is "one of the most difficult of modern times", according to former Football Association chief David Davies. (not really it is a case of one cunts word against another mans, when the cunt has lied in his allegation (ten times on camera ffs)) The Liverpool striker has been given an eight-match ban for racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra. "This has been one of the most difficult disciplinary cases of modern times because of language and cultural issues," Davies told BBC Radio 5 live. "The FA has got to be consistent, but it has also got to be fair." Former executive director Davies said the FA was "way ahead" of Uefa and Fifa, the European and world governing bodies for football, when it came to tackling racism in football. (HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHHHAHAHAH) "The FA has been at the forefront of fighting racism over more than a decade, and using football to do so - perhaps way ahead of Uefa, let alone Fifa," (I think that is more of an indictment of how shitty UEFA and FIFA are than how good the FA is) he added. "Yes, they've got to be consistent (nope), but they've also got to be fair (WRONG) and right (WRONG AGAIN)." Lord Ouseley, chairman of Kick it Out, football's equality and inclusion campaign, said it did not follow from the guilty verdict that Suarez was a racist but that the FA's decision had to be arrived at on the basis of the comments made. "All players playing in our jurisdiction know what standards are expected," said Lord Ouseley. "No-one is saying he's a racist - he's probably a very nice guy. (how fucking condescending does this guy sound He's alleged to have made abusive comments and that's the basis on which [the case] was considered (after the precedent set due to this every player in the PL will be banned for a shit ton of matches." Professional Footballers' Association chief executive Gordon Taylor said: "It's important that when players come to this country they appreciate that while we are very culturally diverse, very cosmopolitan, that's it's also a job for the PFA and the FA and the clubs themselves to educate them. "That means not just the rules of the game but what's acceptable as the law of the land, and what isn't acceptable both on and off the pitch. This is about treating people equally." Although some get treated more equally than othersm you know the english ones Taylor also revealed how attempts by his organisation to mediate between Luis Suarez and Patrice Evra failed. "I didn't want [the case] to escalate, but I wasn't able to get the players together," (first time I have heard of this why is he only bringing it up now, sounds like the PFA is trying to wipe its hands of any wrongdoing)Taylor said. In addition to the ban, Suarez has also been fined £40,000. Liverpool have 14 days to make an appeal.
  3. ABS "read any forum and you will see how little support Liverpool have in this subject" ABS if we gave a shit about the amount of support that we got from other clubs or the media Roy Hodgson would still be our manager, and H & G would have run our club into the ground by now, so keep that opinion to yourself. There is so much wrong with this case (I need to see Suarez racially abuse Evra ten times on camera dammit) that for us to take this ruling lying down would not only make Suarez look bad but every aspect of this proud club from the bottom to the top.
  4. THE FA DONE FUCKED UP Every Liverpool supporter who was on the fence regarding the corrupt and unfair manner in which the FA treats us has to be shocked of that fence and brought onto our side after this decision. I have not felt this amped up and ready for war since we fucked H & G back to the toilet. The FA gave the fanbase a common enemy, and they made Luis into a martyr... I can't wait for tonight shit is about to get real
