The Liverpool Thread 2017/2018 featuring Jurgen Klopp

[Coney]

BBC have said the most he can get is a £2500 fine so it would be down to the FA to bring any real punishment against him.

Ironically, if he gets a £2500 fine by the courts, then he could possibly appeal against any FA ban after that as legally he has been punished and it might not be possible for the FA to take further action.

The judge can give a recommendation of extra punishment, if necessary by the relevant organisation though, probably.

You'd hope.

Oh God, rumours that the team will all wear Suarez shirts before the game. Please no.

I would even take the Uruguay-flags-for-every-fan over this....

Another statement on the club website, this time from the players:

Luis Suarez is our teammate and our friend and as a group of players we are shocked and angered that he has been found guilty by the FA.

We totally support Luis and we want the world to know that. We know he is not racist.

We are a squad of many different nationalities and backgrounds. All of us support the Club's commitment to fighting racism. All of us accept there is no place in the game for any form of discrimination. As a group of players we totally support the Kick it Out Campaign.

We have lived, trained and played with Luis for almost 12 months and we don't recognise the way he has been portrayed. We will continue to support Luis through this difficult period, and as a popular and respected friend of all his teammates, he will not walk alone.

He hasn't been portrayed as anything, it's words we're talking about here - not personality. As for ending the statement with those five words...they don't do themselves many favours do they?

Oh ffs, this is becoming worse than 'he's not that kinda guy' Shawcross/Taylor.

It doesn't matter whether he's a white/brown supremacist (or whatever colour he is) or not.

[GP]

All the black players in the Liverpool first XI are right behind him.
