    There is however "previous" for Evra crying "RACIST!" when he has a run in with someone.

    Funnily enough :rolleyes:

    So Suarez has never commited a bad fould in his entire career?
    Get a grip, you'll defend any Liverpool player to the hilt regardless of how daft it makes you look and if Suarez decides to pack his bags and go somewhere else you'll be throwing the exact same abuse at him that you exerted so much engry deflecting from him when he was liverpool player.

    Had to work today so only got to listen on the radio.
    Got home and just watched the most biased highlights package I've ever seen in my life on Premier Soccer Saturday.

    I know it's no secret that Peter Collins is a big Liverpool fan, and of course Ray Houghton is a "red legend" but bloody hell that was shocking television.

    At the end peter Collins summed up the game by saying; "So only a point then for Liverpool...coming up after the break..." No mention of anything that didn't relate directly to Liverpool. You could almost forgive it if we were watching a Europa league game against the fourth placed side in the Azerbaijan league. I'm sure there are a few of us out there in telly land who might have an interest in a team other than Liverpool, maybe even the champions of England that they were playing against today.

    I know Liverpool are the best supported side in Ireland by a mile but it's amazing how bad the standard of punditry on RTE is once you drop below Giles, Dunphy and Brady. I can't imagine the three lads of the "A" panel being so one sided in their analysis. It was only a step away from the panel refering to Liverpool as "we".

    As for the game, the usual Liverpool v United stuff, ie Liverpool over pefroming and United under performing a draw was a fair result.

    Tuned out when Kenny Cunningham said United played 5-4-1 and it won't be the last time they play it :rolleyes:

    LOL ****ing pot kettle black.

    When Evra accuses the Chelsea groundsman of being racist the FA lifted him out of it & said that there was reasons to be believe that the versions told by witnesses for Evra had been fabricated.

    Here he is at it again :rolleyes:

    Kenny is usually ok, it was a s if he was playing up to the other two to impress them. For next weeks programme they should just get the lads decked out in Liverpool shirts and be done with it.

    He never said anything like that, way to just make up random ****.
    Suarez is clearly a bit of a prick on the football pitch, but he's innocent until to proven guilty, and Evra does have priors of talking absolute nonsense, much like yourself.

    So because he's commited bad fouls, baseless accusations of him being racist from someone with a history of inventing similar accusations against are definitely true?

    I'm calling the kettle black am I?

    I never defended Evra or even mentioned him.

    It's bizarre that he says the ref was aware of it, wouldn't that be an unquestionable red card offense?

    In all my years watching football I've never once seen someone sent off for making racist remarks, whilst unfortunately a number of players have complained about suffering racist abuse.

    Has the ref ever witnessed & been aware of these racist taunts at the time?

    Cause that is what Evra is saying in this instance.

    Lets see what comes out of it eh before jumping to Suarez's defense. Nobody is saying he's guilty. Nobody is immediately saying Evra is saying the truth. After all innocent until proven otherwise? Lets not turn the thread into a shít storm

    King had him in his pocket 3 weeks ago , same cant be said at the other end with Adebayor....FACT !
    Suarez is better than adebayor, it's not really a contest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,316 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    I take it Evra means he told the ref, not that the ref actually heard it?

    Innocent until proven guilty is fair enough, just assuming innocence because it's one of your clubs players is incredibly stupid not to mention childish.

    The fact the accuser has a history of false allegations of racism is quite telling.

    As I've said in the other thread, Evra has prior here and his allegations were not upheld by the FA, allegations which seriously affected not just the carrer, but the private life of the groundsman. I struggle to believe Evra in this instance. If it is found that he has sullied the good name of Luis Suarez and that the allegations are false, he should be shunned by the football family and left with a ban of an extreme length.

    Saying it in two places doesn't make it any less wrong you know.

    Allegations made against employees of a club with a history of extreme right wing/racist leanings you mean?
    Where do we draw the line exactly?

    It contains the FA's statement.

    Which actually says that they think Evra & the Utd staff were lying as their statements all contradicted eachother.

    It says in that piece from the daily mail that:
    the accusation that Evra barged one member of the ground staff because he was brandishing a pitchfork in a threatening manner was also dismissed.

    Same groundsman?
