Why would anyone expect someone with a column in the s*n to make any kind of sense??

Its a ******ed opinion for a ******ed paper with ******ed readers.

I've not had my say on the Suarez issue (Sure every viewpoint has been covered...) and you obviously can't defend what he did but I think this article is well worth a read.

Different viewpoint on what has already been published.

Unfortunately people don't want to try and understand when it's easier to condemn.

Nice to have you back Chris, btw. You staying for a while?

It's clear that what he did was wrong and he would obviously have to face the consequences of those actions. It's pretty clear that there is problems that run deeper and it would be incredibly beneficial to him, Uruguay & Liverpool that he has help to overcome that.

Like you say, it seems that everyone condemns him straight away. (And before anyone says anything, he needs to face action for what he did!)

He shouldn't have done it and the ban is justified but you could make the argument that psychological help for these issues that arise would help him more than the ban. (And before anyone calls me up to it, this isn't me saying that he shouldn't have been banned)

Alright Saint, hope you're well.

Yeah, I should be around a bit more now than I have been lately!
 
Nice article Chris, but I agree with saint....the haters gonna hate no matter what.

McNulty was at the Uruguayan press conference, his finishing sentence speaks volumes.

"Oscar Tabarez played to the gallery in a dramatic 12-minute monologue at The Maracana.
"Tabarez announced he would take no questions and went on, uninterrupted, to outline the injustice he and the whole of Uruguay feels has been inflicted on Luis Suarez.
"The veteran coach claimed the punishment was of 'excessive severity' and pointed the finger at the British media for pursuing the story, saying, 'I don't know what their nationality was but they all spoke English'.
"Tabarez went on to expound 'the theory of the scapegoat' before announcing his resignation from Fifa's Technical Study Group in protest at the sanctions taken against Suarez.
"He concluded his speech with a call to arms for his players to use the emotions stirred by the Suarez affair to inspire them to victory against Colombia on Saturday.
"Tabarez then rose and left the room to loud applause from admiring Uruguayan journalists - an ovation not joined by those of us in the English media.

That whole article has got a snide tone about it. Like Uruguay are beneath England and that the English are superior and everyone should agree with their take on everything.

Spot on, English journalists looking down their noses at people from a completely different culture and one of the smallest and poorest nations on the planet while the England squad are back here after getting knocked out by the very people they're dissing.<laugh>
 
And its funny how these English journalists have changed their tune from "FIFA are corrupt, cancel the Qatar world cup" to "FIFA are great, nobody should question their decisions". Quite pathetic.

Yeah, instead of questioning whether the new Suarez controversy has given the Blatter brigade a smokescreen to hide their corruption and nepotism they show their priorities are aimed in a familiar direction and question why Suarez's punishment wasn't even bigger than he got.<laugh>
 
Might have something to do with the uruguayans defending the indefensible?

Remember when that english club defended that racist player? People tend to look down at such actions.
