Liverpool FC

Superb stuff from Rodgers at the presser earlier. Proud he's our manager.

"First time I've ever known an independent committee dictated to by so many people."

Well said lad.

However, his previous record in England was allowed to be taken into context as he had been warned about his future conduct. Even still, the 10 match ban is a disgrace when you see some of the incidents that have gone unpunished or dealt with leniantly this season and in previous seasons.

As for fans of other clubs saying he should be booted out of the english game..... pull the other one. There have been players like Roy Keane, Eric Cantona, John Terry, Lee Bowyer and Jonathon Woodgate, Been Thatcher, Wayne Rooney, Patrick Viera, El-Hadji Diouf etc, (the list goes on) who have been involved in incidents as bad or worse than this. Were any of those booted out of English football? No... They took their punishments and returned to play as they were entitled to. Suarez will do likewise - much to the chagrin of the FA, the British media and fans of other football clubs. That is unless Suarez decides he's had enough of the corrupt FA and their agenda and decides he wants to go to another country. What a loss of talent that'd be for the Premier League.

YNWA Luis.

no yoda none of them were booted out of English football and neither has luis suarez and I don't think he will be. I think he will take the ban like you say and come back and if he keeps out of trouble then he has nothing to worry about. he cant go in front of the f.a. if he just keeps concentrates on playing his football. we all know when he comes back hes going to have to put up with players having little digs and winding him up on the pitch as do other players. he is a great player even with my knowledge I know that, and he will prob come back better than ever, but I don't think he will ever do anything daft on a football pitch again after this ban cos he loves to play football. and yes I do think the f.a. are corrupt, stupid and a lot of other things as well when u see this stupid rule come in to play about action after the game cant be taken cos the ref dealt with it there and then wtf!!!

I agree it will be a loss of talent to the Premier League, but I think there has to be a point where Liverpool will have to say 'enough is enough' and I wonder how many fans are getting fed up with reading about Suarez on the back pages.
Also how did the hearing go regarding Hillsboorough? If they have agreed to restart the process into the events of that awful day, then I truly believe finally the full shocking truth will come out and 96 families can at least get the justice they have deserved for so long. And those who served in Thatcher's cabinet should be made to appear in court to listen and also put on record on what they really knew, and be made to make a full public government apology.

Rodgers was wrong. The comments of the FA were exactly the same as in the case of Eden Hazard earlier this season. In that hearing the independent committee threw the case against Hazard out, showing that contrary to what Rodgers says the independent disciplinary committees are genuinely independent.

The news today is Liverpoool FC say that no appeal will be made against the 10 match ban for Suarez.

Im bored of this story now, the FA have it in for him, appealing would be pointless.

Pull the other one.

They were dictated to by David Cameron, FA and Media.

Rodgers was spot on.

Statement from Luis.

You must be paying attention to different media to me then. A lot of the media comment I saw regarded the 10 match ban as harsh.

right, thats where he gets some respect back from some people. i know alot of liverpool fans and other fans dont agree with the 10 game ban or possibly a ban at all but hes got one, and he looks like he wants to just take the punishment and then come back. wether people are pissed off with him for accepting it then thats up to them but respect to him from me for accepting he did wrong!

He should have got a 7 game ban like he did for Ajax.
