humm not sure they are saying email them they have them i guess its paypal?

think you get me wrong. Viagogo is a website that many clubs endorse and encourage fans to use to sell tickets that they can no longer attend. Just am not sure if Manu uses it. Safe way to buy tickets
 
There is something wrong with football then BaZ if you can run the risk of biting someone and its 50/50 whether you get punished or not. If the FA Do change their position, lets not hope there are bleeding hearted Liverpool fans claiming bias, an FA Agenda against Liverpool and/or Suarez. The line must be drawn somewhere regardless of whether it is Suarez, Rooney or some brick layer from the Blue SQ Premiership


In fact this really is a test of Liverpool's mettle as well. Say the FA Come out and say they cant take action, will Liverpool punish Suarez. Lets hope Rodgers manages this a whole lot better than what Daglish did with the Evra affair.

The rules are ****ed up, as I've said before, and the FAs excuse is bull**** too - Fifa don't allow appeals either but the FA do. However you don't draw the line and change the rules in the middle of a season because this is a high profile case. You do it at the end of the season.

And Liverpool will only suspend him if they think a ban is coming from the FA, if not then I can't see it happening - the same way City didn't ban Aguero for example.

Edit: and to those saying Liverpool should sell him, why? You do realise that we signed him directly after he got banned for the same thing in Holland? If the club feel that he's too good a player to lose then they'll put up with what he comes with, just like when Utd didn't sack/sell Cantona after he attacked a fan. If we get a fee that the club feels would allow us to improve the side as a whole then he'll go but that's no different to any other player.

P.S LOL @ the Fergie time x 2 aka they're losing at Anfield and gagging for a goal.

I'm still struggling to see where the six minutes extra time came from. I guess it's from all those replay moments the ref had in the second half.

More than likely the ridiculous amount of time that Liverpool wasted at the penalty, it's just a shame that it ended up working in their favour. Oh well to be honest we were woeful and didn't deserve to win the game anyway. Yes suarez shouldn't have even been on the pitch to score the equaliser but I've become so use to referees missing things that it didn't bother me. The added 40 seconds within the 6 minutes added time? Well the less said about that the better. Regardless I think the amount of games we've played is really starting to take its toll and at the most crucial point.


Oh and to add, Benitez's substitutions were baffling...benayoun for hazard, mata off and yet torres who contributed nothing all game and is forced to play on thursday due to Ba being ineligible stayed on...

Yup, while I thought Hazard was pretty poor in the first half, he was probably their best in the second, taking him off while leaving Torres on, bringing on Benny who hasn't had an influencial performance in like 3 years(though he did win one outstanding defensive header in the box). Mata was a bit **** so him coming off wasn't so bad. Ultimately I couldn't see LIverpool having a chance of winning with Suarez off and down to 10. This is where video replay comes in, instant effects that prevent game changing mistakes(or at least the VAST majority of them). Yeah, video replays will miss some stuff, and given a limit on when it can be used genuinely bad calls will still get missed as managers don't want to waste their challenges, or whatever they get called. But 90% of really major decisions correct for a 2 minute increase in game lengthh(at best, ignoring that it will be MORE than offset by the lack of complaining around a ref, I mean LIverpool could ask to challenge, or shut up, end of, and back to the game, would have saved time there), is simple massively better than the not even 50% of correct decisions given now.

Lets say Suarez gets a 10 game ban, how does that help Chelsea get their 2 points back.

AS for Baz and why would they ban Suarez himself, well, Ajax did it for starters to tell Suarez himself he can't get away with that kind of crap, the way reports on it are worded, I think the 7 game ban actually includes Ajax's own self imposed ban(as everywhere I saw say they extended his ban). Secondly, when buying a player he may well have said "yeah, I'm really sorry about that, I'll never do it again", and liverpool may have utterly stupidly taken him at tooth value. He's likely gone back on what he said when he joined, hence its NOT the same situation as when he joined and they bought someone with a ban currently on going(was the ban actually in place when he joined Liverpool still or had it been "used up" by the time he joined, did he miss any EPL games for it?). Secondly, Suarez has been caught cheating multiple times, and had previous bans, its not the first bad thing he's done in England, Liverpool should ban him even if the FA don't because Liverpool need to teach Suarez to stop doing it again. If Liverpool fail to ban him themselves, they are just telling him he can get away with it, and he'll do it again, at which point the FA, or Uefa, or Fifa may throw the book at him.


Hell, it could work out for Liverpool, 4 games left or whatever, give him an 5 game ban, he misses one game next season... don't pay him till that ban is up, win win :p
 
Ajax banned him for 2 games knowing he was about to get banned anyway dm. The dutch FA banned him for 7 games, not 5 + 2 from Ajax, if that's what you're thinking too.

The only way I can see us banning him over and above any action from the FA would be if they banned him for 3 games and the club thought it would be a good pr stunt and give him an extended holiday if they banned him for the final game of the season too.
