Poll: Suarez has to be banned for a year at least

[Martini1991]

It's really a genius move to ensure he stays at Liverpool.

 

[spudbynight]

My wife has spoken...she thinks he should have been banned for at least a year.

(Please note my wife doesn't watch football)

 

[Vita]

I hope Real don't buy him.

 

[Clipsey]

So lame, terrible decision from FIFA? What's the point of a 4 month ban if 2 of those months he'll be sunning himself on holiday anyway?

 

[Azza]

Liverpool will be paying him for doing absolutely nothing for 4 months.

What hes gonna miss.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Wanna bet on that?

Yea sure

 

[Burned_Alive]

What hes gonna miss.

If he's still a Liverpool player.

 

[Ayahuasca]

If he's still a Liverpool player.

Well people are saying above it includes a transfer ban.

Players only normally get 2-3 weeks break after a WC. Pre-season starts earlier than you'd think.

 

[antijoke]

Jesus some of you **** edited *** claiming it should be longer, seriously get a grip, he's been dealt swift justice.

 

[eggyoke]

If he's still a Liverpool player.

The FIFA woman specifically said "including any footballing administrative actions" regarding the 4 month football activity ban.

So what is administration in football? I can only think of contracts, transfers and sponsors.

bit more here:

Luis Suarez handed four month football ban

not sure what to make of this though:

"The appeal does not have a suspensive effect except with regard to orders to pay a sum of money."

The news will also come as a major blow for Liverpool, with the player now set to miss the start of the 2014/15 campaign. This will be the second consecutive season that the forward will have missed the opener to a Premier League campaign.

The ban is, however, subject to an appeal.

so, he can appeal the fine and missing LFC games but not international ones?

wont he miss more liverpool games then as surely the ban doesnt start until the appeal has been sorted.

So if the appeal taes a month to reach a verdict then its next month the 4 month ban starts not now

 

[antijoke]

You're a moron.

 

[Guerrilla]

Seems fairly lenient to me, but not sure I expected him to get the book thrown at him... Though I think he deserves it.

No doubt he and the press in Uruguay will still kick up a fuss about him being persecuted and they'll try to use it to fuel a move away from England.

 

[Admiral Huddy]

What a **** joke.. 2 months of that is in closed season..!!!!!

If Liverpool have any respect for the Premier League and in the interest of of other players, they'd sack him..

Let's not forget.. this the 3rd time, plus one racial abuse ban.. Anyone else, this would be a prison sentence.

He's ** laughing - again

 

[Azza]

Does "football related activity" mean that he technically won't be allowed to train with Liverpool?

What hes gonna miss.

And CL matches.


edit------------->

He can be transferred.

Oliver Kay ‏@OliverKayTimes 33s

Fifa clarification on Suarez. He WOULD be able to transfer during his ban from football-related activity (hypothetically of course...) #LFC

 

[Purdy]

Hopefully we appeal and its massively reduced

 

[branddaly]

Luis Suarez has now been banned for 34 games since 2010 without receiving a single red card

Which means that they are all off the ball incidents. Ruling out them being unintentional, and enforcing the view that he is a snide *******.

 

[deanolfc]

Liverpool can't appeal, Only Uruguay F.A. so i read on the guardian.
