When is Suárez's next game?

2029

 

[friedaweed]

Classy.

Very. T'is like the pirates code

 

[twistedAM]

I wonder how long it will take for FIFA to act ...

When is Suárez's next game?

They've given the Uruguayan FA until 9pm tonight to give their side of the story. Looks lie they want to get the review done in time for Uruguay's next match which is on Saturday.

 

[T & P]

Leave the man alone ffs. It was clearly acci-dental.

Oh to be a fly on the wall when they present their defence, Up until now its essentially been the Richard Prior / Shaggy defence, surely they can't continue to balls that out?

 

[marty21]

Columbia will be very interested - no Suarez - probably means they will make it to the quarters and mayber further

Apparently they have ordered a local printing firm to run up a batch of t-shirts, so they might be keeping up the charade.

They seem to be undecided on whether they should deny everything or just claim it was nothing and doesn't matter, its bizarre. Personally I like the idea that in a match being played in Brazil between Uruguay and Italy its all the fault of the British Press. Have the British journo's been blocking his access to red meat?

 

[Badgers]

If Suarez played for Dulwich Hamlet he would have his own forum by now

Definitely. Without Suarez, Uruguay look a literally toothless proposition.

It's definitely going to leave a cavity that will need filling

 

[agricola]

they would have to change their name to Tasteslike Hamlet, though.

Mmmmm ham! Easier to chew than Bratwurst Ivanovic.

 

[imposs1904]

Fair play to Suarez. It further cements my opinion that this is shaping up to be the best World Cup since '82. All World Cups - if they are to be truly great - need stuff like this to happen. It wasn't the heights of Schumacher attempting to murder Battison, but Suarez gave it his best bite.

 

[friedaweed]

 

[Dandred]

That needs giffing up!

 

[Lord Camomile]

In a rush so just gonna drop this here. Might C+P the relevant passages if I get a chance later.

 

[mack]

Terry Butcher has just been asked about Suárez's future with Liverpool. The club need to wait until after the World Cup, he said, and then "assess what he is like mentally and what he is like dentally"

 

[Doctor Carrot]

Doesn't matter if he gets banned for life as he's just been announced to star in Moonraker 2.

 

[Fez909]

Chiellini was the one that got away.

From last year's Confederations Cup:

I guess he finally got his man.

 

[Gingerman]

 

[Dandred]

He's an amazing player but WHAT THE FUCK!

Who the fuck thinks they get away with biting someone in any situation, never mind the World Cup.

Ban him for the WC.

Here's a few to be going on with....

I think he's prob going to end up with a poxy edit 6 games (As in spitting) international ban and a massive fine myself even though many people want him in front of a firing squad. They'll treat it as violent conduct and ensure he's out of the cup and then it'll all be forgotten about until he turns up every week in the prem If Fifi can't stop the tournament being bought by the highest bidder then I can't see them doing much more than slapping his wrist and sending him home early. They don't have the bottle for much more than that I think.

Actually going through all the other stuff he may actually end up still playing if the process takes as long as it could do

I'm sure Uruguay could challenge any decision anyway - which would allow him to keep playing.

Hoping Columbia knock them the fuck out.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. If they ask for time to examine the evidence blah di blah and appeal how does that pan out?

Anyway I've got Holland in the sweep so along as Robben doesn't bite anyone it's still looking good for me

 

[Gingerman]

Sad way for the wonderfull Pirlo to bow out of the World Cup, still a Winners medal in 2006 and a Runners Up medal at Euro 2012 not to be sniffed at

Their side of the story? How many sides can there be to this story?

Maybe Suarez mistook the Italian geezer for a cornetto or something

Suarez is a sadomasochistic pervert:

Glad that's cleared up.
