Why on earth not?

I think Raj has seen Cameron on telly, that's why he came out and spoke about Suarez. It's all Raj's fault.

"Not with you I don't"

Ahh, so you are just baiting certain users of this forum to get a rise? Sounds like confessions of a WUM.


To get back to the article, I'd like to add to a few points made earlier

TOOR - "Is an elbow on the head or a two footed tackle less of a problem"

Its more of a problem in the sense that it happens with more regularity, however a bite, compared to a single instance of the elbow/ 2 footer is more of a problem. The two you mention are dirty, biting is just really weird. I don't know how to put it into words, but you it just makes me think is there anything he wouldn't do?

red_man23 - "I reckon it'll be 5+ tbh. Don't think they'll go above the 8 they gave him for Evra. They wouldn't want to appear to be putting a bite above racism."

See this was my initial thought, however I wouldn't be at all suprised to see him get much more than 8 games - my money would be on double this. The FA would stress that the punishment length is partly down to the offense, and partly down to it being a repeat offense of this nature i.e. should he get done for racial abuse again, the punishment will be much higher than 8 games. The punishment handed out will almost certainly be befitting of his behaviour, not necessarily this crime.

Joey Barton, City vs QPR last game of last season. He got a red, then walked over and kneed Aguero/Nasri (?), had he not been dragged off the pitch he would have probably punched Balotelli. He was given 12 matches for this "violent conduct". I struggle to see what is worse though - both scenes absolutely disgusted me. Given that the likes of Barton & Suarez have the best advisors and help money can buy yet still act like this, can you image what they would be like if they weren't footballers with all the aid they get? It is probably safe to say that if they would be in prison (along with many others).
