Suarez bites Ivanovic

Are you serious?

When you were a little boy, did you not look up to footballers, wanted to be just like them.

Well, I did.

Who did you want to be like? Maradona? Because you sound like you're on drugs.

There were two footballers I wanted to be like. Andy Goram and Andy Goram.

I doubt a lot of them think about that!

The fact that our society on some level expects a precedent to be set by athletes says a lot too.

Exactly. Since when are athletes expected to be smart? Plenty of footballers and other sportsmen are thick bastards and don't deserve recognition other than what they do in their respective fields, but since they get a lot of TV air time, they inevitably become role models in everything. In truth very few entertainers (what athletes basically are) should be looked upon as examples. There are exceptions but you can't expect kids, staring at the TV the whole day, to differentiate between those who are and who aren't.

Anyway, what Evra did, I don't think any child is gonna be traumatized by that. Not the brightest thing to do, but we all know that Evra is a cunt too, so...

I remember in the same fixture last season Suarez and Ivanovic had a minor (in comparision) bust up and at that moment i thought of the time he bit the PSV player and imagined him possibly doing the same in that moment.

A bit strange he does just that in the same fixture the following season.

Luis Suarez accepts violent conduct charge but denies FA claim standard punishment of three matches is clearly insufficient for this offence

yes, until i was twelve and i realised many of them are actually twats, cunts and some are just plain stupid.

i simply stopped.

He shouldn't play anymore this season and games into the new season.

When do we find out ? tomorrow? Or Thurdsay?

Should definitely be more than 3 games...

True related story

My mum works in the local primary school. And this week their have been two instances where a child has needed some form of treatment for bitemarks. And in one occasion they drew blood. Now this is crazy behaviour and a reflection on a whole manner of things, but it shows the reach of how it effects SOME really young children. And therefore should be dealt with in a different manner than a bog standard violent conduct charge even if the actual harm to ivanovic's arm is very minimal.

I don't like evra, but i think it would be very harsh for him to get fined. Everyone has made a joke about this in some way. He didn't really do anything wrong.
