I expect you thought this article would be a statement of how Luis Suarez has been found out, well its not. The 'true colours' refers to the horrible, bitter idiots on here who have been desperate for this moment for ages. The bile you're coming out with is worse than anything Suarez is alleged to have said.
I'm astounded the FA have taken the word of only Evra, another vile man who is a puppet of Ferguson, who saw an opportunity to get at Liverpool and led Evra to the ref's room.
I don't care what any of you say, i think i'll take Liverpool Football Clubs word over anything that comes from the corrupt minds of Evra/Fergie. Read the statement, do you honestly think the club would use such strong wording if they had ANY doubt over Saurez's innocence :-
Liverpool Football Club is very surprised and disappointed with the decision of the Football Association Commission to find Luis Suarez guilty of the charges against him.
We look forward to the publication of the Commission's Judgment. We will study the detailed reasons of the Commission once they become available, but reserve our right to appeal or take any other course of action we feel appropriate with regards to this situation.
We find it extraordinary that Luis can be found guilty on the word of Patrice Evra alone when no-one else on the field of play - including Evra's own Manchester United teammates and all the match officials - heard the alleged conversation between the two players in a crowded Kop goalmouth while a corner kick was about to be taken.
The Club takes extremely seriously the fight against all forms of discrimination and has a long and successful track record in work relating to anti-racist activity and social inclusion. We remain committed to this ideal and equality for all, irrespective of a person's background.
LFC considers racism in any form to be unacceptable - without compromise. It is our strong held belief, having gone over the facts of the case, that Luis Suarez did not commit any racist act. It is also our opinion that the accusation by this particular player was not credible - certainly no more credible than his prior unfounded accusations.
It is key to note that Patrice Evra himself in his written statement in this case said 'I don't think that Luis Suarez is racist'. The FA in their opening remarks accepted that Luis Suarez was not racist.
Luis himself is of a mixed race family background as his grandfather was black. He has been personally involved since the 2010 World Cup in a charitable project which uses sport to encourage solidarity amongst people of different backgrounds with the central theme that the colour of a person's skin does not matter; they can all play together as a team.
He has played with black players and mixed with their families whilst with the Uruguay national side and was Captain at Ajax Amsterdam of a team with a proud multi-cultural profile, many of whom became good friends.
It seems incredible to us that a player of mixed heritage should be accused and found guilty in the way he has based on the evidence presented. We do not recognise the way in which Luis Suarez has been characterised.
It appears to us that the FA were determined to bring charges against Luis Suarez, even before interviewing him at the beginning of November. Nothing we have heard in the course of the hearing has changed our view that Luis Suarez is innocent of the charges brought against him and we will provide Luis with whatever support he now needs to clear his name.
We would also like to know when the FA intend to charge Patrice Evra with making abusive remarks to an opponent after he admitted himself in his evidence to insulting Luis Suarez in Spanish in the most objectionable of terms. Luis, to his credit, actually told the FA he had not heard the insult.

i'm sure there's plenty, even if the prosecuters didn't show it to you.
I don't have the power to ask the FA to show the evidence on ja606. But rest assured it's there, in the FA headquarters

terentius1,
So you genuinely believe Suarez has been banned for 8 matches without any evidence whatsoever?

I would guess that Suarez has been banned on the back of what he told the enquiry. The FA wanted to make a statement and have chosen the easy target. It was Suarez's word against Evra's and the FA chose to believe Fergies, sorry i meant Evra's word.

=============================
Maybe he did, but then if you tell the enquiry you called the victim something racist, you are going to get banned.
You should be condemning him, not sticking up for him. Are you a racit by any chance?

Liverpool think he shouldn't be punished, simply because you think you're above the law.
==================================================
No, not because they think they're above the law,...it's because they don't think he's guilty.
Just as United defended Phelan after he was found to have made a malicious racism accusation (which is just as bad as racist abuse itself)
Liverpool have a right of appeal if they don't agree with the verdict.
Exercising that right is not putting yourself above the law, quite the opposite.

You complete moron. So because i don't agree with your bitter bile, i'm a racist? You choose to believe what you want to believe. If Suarez were found innocent (that was never going to happen) would you have shrugged your shoulders and said 'ah well he must be innocent then'? Would you hell.

========================
Calm down sweetcheeks . I asked you if you were a racist, i didnt say you was one.
If Suarez was found to be innocent, we wouldnt have a choice but to say he was innocent.
The flip question would normally be, if he's found guilty of it would you admit he is a racist? But we know the answer to that one, dont we?
It makes one wonder how how far someone would lower their morals to protect a player for their club. I'm not calling anyone anything, but if you stand by a racist, for me that makes you the same.
