It has been utterly disproportioned the dissent that has been directed towards Suarez. After England's own Terry was caught for much worse, it's all so, so quiet. Talk about double standards, it's laughable really.
it's laughable really.

Laughable yes, but it's also quite scary in this day and age for such a high profile governing body such as the FA to continuously get away with these bizarre decisions

But the xenophobia claim is utterly laughable, given the fact that the Premier League is the most multi-cultural league on the planet.

that in no way proves there is no xenophobic attitude.
That's like saying there is no racism as black people now live in the UK

Ex-black players
Why aren't those players black anymore?
Xenophobic isn't the same as being biased towards English players .

I found a stegosaurs with the bottom of my foot this morning.....kids toys eh!
The Terry punishment's baffling compared to Suarez's though - they should both have got the 8 games, no idea why Terry was let off so lightly. But the FA didn't tell Suarez to say the things he did, they just rightly punished him for it.
As far as singling Suarez out in the papers, do you honesty think he's been singled out for no reason whatsoever, or does his past behaviour come into it at all?
Also, the BBC didn't have a headline saying 'Suarez Dives Again!' it reported Tony Pullis complaining about him, which is a valid news story and about as far from a witch hunt as you can imagine.

your article is gonna attract wums ....
but in response ..ive learned a thing or two about ja606 and we are viewed as liverpool fans.
no matter what we say , we are always gonna be viewed in a certain way by everyone....like it or not....
secondly i think its disgracefull is being painted as the devil yet others get away with this scot-free ...i actually think luis has been doing less diving this year but is getting clattered more ...but his play acting lets him down....
tony pulis yesterday came out and said that suarez should be banned for diving....yes...BANNED ,..who does this think he is .....
nobods talking about the disgracefull tactics that stoke employed to injure liverpool...but thats ok ..its stoke , thats what they do..
and if you start banning players for diving , then you open a giant can of worms

I can fully accept Terry got away lightly with his ban and fine.
For me it was deserving a much greater punishment that Suarez....But I am just a bitter, so my opinion doesnt count
A Rap

Do you think Suarez is being unfairly treated compared to other player swho have committed similar acts ?
How can Terry get off with much lighter ban
How come Cashley has ecscaped a fine when Babel didn't
The FA have proved time and again that English playrs are treated differently

Sure you have some evidence of this....not just your views/feelings?
John Terry received a 4 match ban for using racist language - he was even caught on camera. It was a word completely frowned upon in our country.
-----------------------------------------------------------
He used the word 'black' which I don't believe is a word frowned upon in our coutrny. The way he used it along with a swear word as part of an insult was the issue. It sounds like you think he used the N word. I don't believe he did. By the way, I'm not defending Terry in any way - he deserved the same ban as Suarez.

Are Liverpool the only football club in the UK that has foreign players playing for them.Surely if Xenophobia is prevelent at FA headquarters then all foreign players would be treated the same as Suarez.
If that is not the case then surely you cannot accuse the FA and the media as being xenophobic
