I can guarantee he'll get a warm "welcome" at Cornellà.:winking:

Mostly old sports news and [B]certainly no different from what used to happen regularly in British football, back in the day[/B].

Not that I would condone it for a moment.

FYI,modern Catalan and Spanish society is,IMO,no more or less racist than GB.

Used to. We have, fortunately, moved on.

In football perhaps.But how would you explain the fact that there are so few black managers in the game?

However,if you think racism has been abolished, just because it's no longer politically correct,then you're extremely naive.

Just ask any of your black friends,(if you have any that is).

I'm sorry for posting this photo. Apparently it is 'typical cyber-bullying tactics'.

No, my comment wasn't about the photo, it was in reply to this comment of yours:-"#barnabluegetsitwrongagain," with regard to post 93 in this thread.


I'm entitled to my opinion, even if you (and others) might disagree with it.

Oh so you repped the wrong post? Thanks for clarifying.

Nope.I repped your last post in the thread.

Someone remind me how many matches a player like Pepe gets banned for stamping or headbutting someone? Biting someone is weird but it isn't going to break a bone or kill you, it is far less dangerous than a deliberate stamp or headbutt, seems like a witchhunt to me, Suarez isn'ta nice person but I'd rather someone bit me than tried to break my leg.

Amazing...

I'm more amazed by your amazement of that comment by our man in Spain,he's twisted and bitter like a cough candy.

Im amazed that you think cough candys are bitter,are they?
My son works at anfield and his view is that he is/has been a bit of a dick and they will sell him.
I have no friends therefore i have no black friends therefore i am racist,there its out there now but in my defence i did speak to and pay a nice indian man for a dodgy meal last night.

Personally, I don't have any black friends, or white friends, I just have friends. I guess that's the difference between us.

And back on topic.....I see he was given a hero's welcome when he returned home, and then there were inevitable scenes with his children.

And Urugray's manager has made a spirited defense of "scapegoat" Suarez ,resigning from FIfA himself (where he was widely repected) and calling their decision "media driven and wildly excessive."

What's more,he's right.

"Media driven". So now FIFA are listening to the British media? Well that's a remarkable about turn isn't it?

Uraguay have called up an unknown striker for tonight's game...

Wildly excessive. Hardly. If someone had bitten me in the street, i'd be pressing charges for assault. Suarez has got away very lightly

If someone headbutted me I'd be filing for assault as well, if Suarez gets 4 months for biting then the punishment for headbutting should be 4 months if not more, yet Zidane only got a 3 match ban for his headbutt in 2006.

Not really sure what your point is and I don't recall saying Zidane's headbutt didn't deserve more or why you have used Zidane's headbutt as a simile at all. I'm not disagreeing fella, though id be more inclined to file for assault if the headbutt had broke my nose or fractured my cheekbone rather than made a nice hollow sound on my chest

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

I'd rather a player punch me than try to bite me.

He then retired. Let's hope Suarez does the same, vile vile human being. Great role model to his kids as well. Top bloke.
