Fergie Yet more Hypocrisy From most hated man in football

Not tecnically, but it does contravene Canon Law of Affinity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affinity_(canon_law)
Although technically it is to do with marriage, it also extends to illicit intercourse...

 

Perhaps the irritation is to have judgement cast over a club that is no damned business of his...

I haven't seen the new film yet. There is an older film starring Bill Murray as Thompson/Duke called Where Buffalo Roam. Its worth a look.

The new book is a good read. Bit heavy on the Campaign trail '72 part, and most of the political references are before my time, but it's still a good read and very funny.

I agree. Even if I wish he would keep it to himself, he is entitled to an opinion. And you/me are entitled not to listen. Total saturation by the media is my bug bear. At least they didn't paraphrase his words to make a different/sinister angle out of it like they normally do. Still I suppose they didn't have to this time.

 

@TuckersLaw, you can argue semantics all day, but the evidence is compelling enough to point out the adage that "People in glass houses should not throw stones" or the more biblical "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone", or maybe the classic "Get your own house in order first" Take your pick, but bottom line is old whisky nose should not be making any comments about other clubs.

And by no stretch of any imagination is not shaking hands any more of a sackable offence than shagging your sister in law.

 

I like the African version of those sayings:

When you point a finger at me the other four are pointing at you.

 

I don't remember reading anywhere that he said he should have shaken Evra's hand. What I saw was he was sorry for misleading the club. He apologised for letting down the club, the manager and the fans - Seems there is a mistruth in your post - Not that I'm surprised by anything you lot make up anymore!

 

WRONG.

'I should have shaken Patrice Evras hand before the game and I apologise for my actions'

Now who is making things up again ?

 

what are you lot even doing still on about this.

FACT... suarez didn't shake a hand, stop making up stuff about evra not offering his.

FACT 3 spearate but clealry (finally) co-orindated and clear apologies were issued, ayre, dalglsih and suarez were all quite clear.

FACT whether or not you want to say your twat evra on the beak or throttle him or whatever it is you say on the internet... its very clealr suarez did wrong and thats all ther eis to it.

honestly leave it alone!

I'd be angry if i gave a **** what guys thought. I'm just bemused why you're so angry and feel so wornged but the world when its clear the guy who did wrong wears no 7....

Kenny Dalglish - before the game:

‘We have spoken to him. I know he will shake the hand of Patrice Evra and the other Manchester United players before the game.’

"People in glass houses should not throw stones" is irrelevant to the OP which states Ferguson is a hypocrite. However, as shown repeatedly, his words on Suarez after the game are not hypocritical.


And by no stretch of any imagination is not shaking hands any more of a sackable offence than shagging your sister in law.

I agree. But one was done in the name of a football club, and one wasn't

 

PS)

Why not?

He is entitled to his opinion. And you are entitled not to listen or agree.

 

Well that told me...You tw^t!

 

How is it a fact? Suarez held his hand out in the very same position as he did with the mascot and De Gea, the FACT is Evra made no attempt to meet him half way, Evra kept his hand by is waste and made no attempt to shake hands with Suarez.

If you want to be a sheep and accept the media/press version of events, so be it, but don't be coming on here, spouting FACTS when there aren't any.

 

Haven't both Suarez and LFC admitted it was Suarez who didn't want to shake hands ?

 

Cobblers! anything a player does reflects on the club, you are just drawing up mythical semantic lines in the sand to suit your argument, which is a bit pathetic and laughable.

Suarez doesn't like Evra, no surprise, the guy is classless, Luis was done good and proper by the FA and then allowed himself to be done by Evra by allowing him to take the moral high ground. One a minor misjudgement and the other a complete farce by the FA.

The media, not suarez have Standard all over this as well as the owners, that is all the media's doing and the lack of a handshake fuelled the fire, in essence a minor mistake but because the media run wild with it, it becomes a bigger issue for those linked to the club being worried about reputation. Whatever the owners do, it MUST be inhouse and quiet, we don't need to be seen to be doing sh!t, we just need to get sh!t done, I care not for flakey minute by minute public opinion

 

What is released as a statement and what people think can be very different things. it's called being the bigger man, not that Evra knows anything about that, physically or morally.

In the same way, don't take the clubs choice not to appeal the actual ruling as an admission of guilt. It was probably wise not to go to war with the FA, when they are playing politics, as it would have probably resulted in a bigger ban. Is Ferdinand a drugs cheat, or did he just forget a drugs test? You just get on with it and take the line of least resistance.

 

Shagging the Utd physio's missus is a sackable offence.

Tommy 'the doc' Docherty will back me up on that.

 

To be honest I've never called Suarez a racist. The report was neither here nor there for me to really form a proper opinion. Only Suarez and Evra really know what has happended.

I only take objection to Evra being ripped to shreds by liverpool fans who refuse to blame Suarez at all. Look at BBFs quote above - Evra is classless whereas Suarez made a 'minor misjudgement'. Come on.

Evra does come across like a dick particularly after the game but the Suarez is far from innocent in all of this.

As for the bigger man - do you really think Suarez has acted the bigger man ? Really ?

 

I know you'll have a different perspective on this, but here is mine. Suarez did not racially abuse Evra. That is my starting point, so I accept the argument that Suarez called Evra "Negrito" and did not mean it racially.

So what happens then? Evra plays the race card, he once again claims someone racially abuses him, we all roll our eyes, and say here we go again, Evra's at it again. But no, the F.A. rub their hands in glee, they now have evidence that compared to Blatter they are holier than thou about Racism, and they can try bury the more embarrassing episode that the England captain might be a convicted racist. So based only on Evra's fabricated lies about repeated racial abuse that no-one else overheard, the F.A. throw the book at Suarez, and so because Evra lied, and the F.A. made hey, poor luis is branded a racist! So at what point, am I not supposed to loath Evra a bit more? We have evidence of the being a freaking nut in his hotel room, calling Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink a ****** from his hotel balcony. Why am I being unfair to him? He has maligned someone and caused him and his family a great deal of pain, and for what? because he could? He abused Suarez first, and what do the F.A. do about that?

So what part of being unjustly maligned, made a scapegoat of and then vilified all over the British media is meant to make me have warm and fuzzy feelings about your pond scum captain?

I am proud at how Luis has carried himself, the fact that he didn't let the midget French prick make him work for some hollow handshake that he was already swallowing all his pride to do is fine by me, as I said, I'd have kicked the **** out of your runt if he had tried that on me.
