wykikitoon 16688 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Its Few people on twitter/football365 making the valid point that if you or I were find guilty of racism at work we'd be sacked. If I went to a meeting, didnt like someone and called them whats been said, I would be sacked. Davies is saying its complex, how the fuck is it. Its pretty black and white for me. The context is completely different. Had he said it in the tunnel it would be similar, but it wasn't its was said on the pitch in a heated conversation to a player who isn't exactly a saint. clicky Saying "shut up little black man" repeatedly is unacceptable and he's been fined and given a 8 game ban. It's not racism. Not even close tbh. Culturally its akin to saying "shut up ginge". Context and intent is everything. Are you on smack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Of all the things they've ever acted as victims of. Initially Heysel, Hillsborough, unemployment, the North/South divide, the Manchester Canal, the dead chicken, I have to say this is the most sickening, and if this were virtually any other club and support, the reaction of this would be far more accepting and humble.

I'm not defending it, just saying anyone thinking the punishment to was too light is taking it out of context. He used a racist language in a heated moment. That doesn't make him a racist. just ignorant. Edited December 21, 2011 by Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your meeting analogy is irrelevant. The only similarity is the racist language. Repeating the irrelevant meeting analogy show your a bit slow.

trophyshy 6434 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) There was a Uruguyan chap on 5 live earlier admitting that racism is a problem in both Uruguayan football and society. Remember the stuff on TV here in the 70's & 80's which would appal 'us' now? Uruguay is perhaps a few decades behind us in the PC drive, or social evolution you might want to call it, Suarez finds himself in the unfortunate position between the two cultures. Not really his fault his culture is different to ours but if you go to another land you have to fall in with the native crack, isn't that right Leazes? Far worse is the scousers whining about it like it's a huge injustice. Would be refreshing to hear a Liverpudlian on the radio putting society at large ahead of their football club's pursuit of a place in Europe.

luckyluke 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 With all these messages of support from Liverpool fans/staff, you'd have thought Suarez had been diagnosed with a terminal disease instead of found guilty of racially abusing someone.

Would be refreshing to hear a Liverpudlian on the radio putting society at large ahead of their football club's pursuit of a place in Europe. This would appear to be the case (the cultural/social differences in South America) but considering Suarez had played for several years in Holland where the race issue is just as prevalent as the UK he should have known better. Then again, this sort of thing probably goes on all the time but it's good to make an example of a few players if they can conclusively prove their guilt imo Edited December 21, 2011 by TicTacWoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asked you to comment on the matter at hand, not compare it to something completely different. Do you understand that this has absolutely nothing to do with suicide bombings? Can you at least discern between the two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
