9 game international ban and 4 month ban from all football

Could have been worse

Probably the most reliable by some distance.

We will have to agree to disagree on that one

Uruguay forward Luis Suarez has been banned for nine matches and banned for four months "from any football activity" after biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini.

4 months ?

rob316 · 26-06-2014 02:53PM

9 match international ban and banned from all football for 4 months. Suarez you idiot.

slingerz · 26-06-2014 02:54PM

Amazed they can ban him for 4 months from all football. You would have to imagine that Liverpool will not be best pleased about that

BenEadir · 26-06-2014 02:54PM

Suarez can't pass off biting someone on the pitch as some sort of acceptable casual play as he tried to articulate in the post match interview. It's totally unacceptable and he doesn't seem to get that. He seems to equate biting an opponent to tripping or taking a swipe at an opponent but it isn't. Simple as.

Tripping and swiping = yellow or red card depending on the circumstances.

Full on punching, violent kicking (as opposed to a 'mistimed tackle"

) and headbutting etc = straight red card and the likelyhood of a multiple match ban depending on the circumstances, previous disciplinary record etc

Spitting = red card and longer ban - it's just disgusting and attracts a high punishment.

and then there's biting which is just in a different league in terms of not being acceptable. Sure, if a guy was asked would you prefer a career threatening broken leg from a "mistimed tackle" a la Roy Keane on Alf Inge Haaland or a nibble from Chewy Louis which didn't break skin (thus no risk of infection etc) in the cold light of day most guys would probably go for the nibble (and possible have the indentation marked forever with a tattoo) but from a social and governance perspective biting is off the chart and our Louis needs to understand that otherwise he'll keep doing it and he'll keep getting bans and losing sponsorship deals etc.

He will be well rested. Lovely.

Agent Coulson · 26-06-2014 02:55PM

Uruguay will appeal and it will be cut in half.

whatawaster · 26-06-2014 02:55PM

What a ******* joke

Grayditch · 26-06-2014 02:55PM

GAA teams lining up to take him for a few months.

I hope Liverpool challenge the ban . It was international football . He didn't do it while playing for Liverpool so the club shouldn't be punished .

That's an insane ban...

kingshankly · 26-06-2014 02:56PM

So who was it saying FIFA can't ban him for club games

Turtyturd · 26-06-2014 02:56PM

Should be back in nice time following an appeal.

Morzadec · 26-06-2014 02:57PM

4 months

Fools on the internet.

That's kinda cunning, its long enough to be seen as harsh but not so long as to rile Liverpool football club into legal action against FIFA - if they get angry it'll be with Suarez for putting them in this position.

Appeal may be logged, an appeal will not suspend the ban action.

eh, it's not about who he plays for, they are punishing the player himself.

FutureGuy · 26-06-2014 02:58PM

A joke of a decision. Premediated attacks get 3 games. A lad losing his temper gets 4 months.

Soft Falling Rain · 26-06-2014 02:58PM

I look forward to Henry taking FIFA on. Joke decision.

Utopia Parkway · 26-06-2014 02:58PM

Can't see Liverpool letting this lie. They will surely claim they are being punished for something that happened in the international arena.

dundalkfc10 · 26-06-2014 02:59PM

To be fair, He got was what was coming to him

Id imagine he will accept the ban and move on

the_monkey · 26-06-2014 02:59PM

Justice.

Should have been 8 months and 20 internationals.

we wont appeal...remember the Evra case?

Benzino · 26-06-2014 02:59PM

He shouldn't get a cent from the club during this ban.

banie01 · 26-06-2014 02:59PM

It takes a Spanish Journo to ask the important question...
No football anywhere for 4 months!
On the bright side.....
No football activity means no transfer of his registration in this transfer window at least.
leaves us in need of another top class striker to be able to start this season as we finished last.
Wonder what Liverpool's available sanctions are?
Paying him whilst he has disqualified himself thru his own actions is surely going to grate with the owners.
