    Agreed. Got 7 games for same thing in Holland.
    Considering the fairly recent misdemeanour for racism i think 10 is about right.

    So 8 games for a torrent of racial abuse is fine but you dare bite someone then 10 game ban.

    Suarez was banned because of who he is rather than what he's done. It's an embodiment of all that's wrong with society and the BJS in general and why we have young black men incarcerated for the same offences middle class white men aren't even getting charged or arrested for. And why Women are doing more time for the same offences as men.

    Wrong in my view, but as per the FA have pandered to he outcries of the British media.

    Of course Suarez was banned because of who he is, and what he did. He's what's called a serial offender. I find it ridiculous to suggest that anything else but his own behaviour has got him into this trouble.

    Maybe he got the 10 game ban because he'd already been banned for 8 games, DL?

    Comparing it to inequality in the justice system makes you sound a little, er... tinfoil hat?

    If you create your own reputation, as Suarez has done. Then expect to be judged on that. Suarez did all this to himself. He's the victim of nothing, but his own stupidity and failure to control his temper.

    and if they've taken all the little stamps and elbows he does in the majority of matches into consideration then well done them.

    Irrespective ofSuarez's previous, DL, if you bit someone on the street, you'd get a far harsher punishment in court than if you made a racially offensive remark, such as calling someone a "negrito". Mildly offensive language in the heat of the moment is perhaps more tolerable than the act of biting. How many of us would bite another person in any circumstances? It's very alarming behaviour.

    You really are unbelievable, a 'torrent' of words racial or otherwise, does not have potential of a health issue as the result of a bite would. That action could well have drawn blood, mixing with saliva, which as you should know has all sorts of health risks, and he should be disuaded from thinking about doing this again..
