Said the threadstarter in a public forum
.I suspect the combination of race and football will see this ending up as 1-0 to the Moderators.

He has since apologised, and his club, Liverpool, have said how disappointed they are with him, especially since he had said he would shake hands.
That s what I would expect from a great club like Liverpool...
Suarez is a nasty piece of work and I don't think he regrets anything. Don't forget he got a ban in Holland for biting someone. Liverpool have shown great folly in supporting him so publically

As long as lessons are learnt...all is forgiven...but not forgotten!
I think he blew all chances of being forgiven yesterday, get rid sharpish

Do they drive a Mercedes, or what?
We all know football is corrupt, racist and big money, or so it seems.
I dislike the 'sport', but it does have a place in society. I'd prefer that such off-topic threads weren't banned (within reason) here. I can just ignore them.

Don't forget homophobic, I've heard the interviews that John Fashenu's (SP)? Daughter has been doing. The stats are incredible, not one gay football player in the football league..............yeah right.
I really feel for the guys who play professional football who are to scared to come out.
I like football as much as the next guy, but it really is in the dark ages.

The hypocrisy from Ferguson is laughable!
He seems to forget a certain Danish goalkeeper of his 'racially abusing' Ian Wright.
Or a certain Irishman admitting in his biography that he went out to finish a certain Leeds players career.
Or a certain Frenchman karate-kicking an opposing supporter.
Or his poster boy centre forward shagging a granny prostitute while his missus was pregnant.
Or a certain Welshman that was caught having an affair with his own brothers wife.
Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones...
All true sweetpea but the discussion was about Suarez and racism

I know pal, I just can't listen to someone taking the moral high ground when his own shoes aren't exactly clean.

Sums it up, really. Since the low point of the 1970's there has been a lot of window dressing and nice words. But the fundamental and deeply tribal roots are just under the surface.
Football is changing, just far too slowly.

Out of all the 'big' football leagues in the world, the English is by far and away the 'least' racist.
Let's also not forget that this spat is between a Frenchman and a Uruguayan. Having said that, I'll be interested to see what becomes of the John Terry case.

One of the very worst is the Russian league who incidentally were awarded the 2018 World Cup!

Two barristers will get even richer.
Football will learn lessons, draw a line and move forward - not.
