Hi,
hmmm, there really is quite an extraordinary amount of hysteria about this latest episode from the new favourite pantomine villain that is Luis Suarez. What he has now done at least twice and looking like a third is something my 2 year old is now growing out of in the nursery. All this "he's not right is he", for goodness sake... Clearly it's a reflex that gets the better of him when the red mist comes swirling down but why is it worse than some legendary assaults from e.g. Scholes, Shearer or Keane where the recipients have been booted in the face or had a career ending broken leg? It's hardly cause for lining up ten clinical psychologists from Harley Street to give an opinion is it? Is it worse than gouging someone's EYE in rugby? As to his diving - alas rampant in the game - they're just as bad as any of the laughable "falls" of Ashley Young - if only he got taken to task for his. Quite why this is THE headline news, and why the english media needs a baddie every tournament is on the whole a bit sad to say the least. This is the same media who will have his face all over the place for the next SUPER DUPER S*Y SUNDAY BETTER THAN THE LAST ONE etc etc. Then the muppet journalists hoping for his execution now like he ate live new born babies will wait a month or two then trot out the usual "redemption" articles. There are two outcomes: he'll get suspended for 1 match for the unseen mild head butt, or they'll grow a pair and ban him for a significant number of games for the bite. End of etc, can we please stop with the witch hunt. How about a witchhunt on something significant like why Cameron managed to create a scenario whereby the Hacking trial could be declared null and void without a re-trial. Anyhow, rant over, it was more about the media than Suarez behaving worse than my 2 year old.... i really have become my Dad, shouting at the TV and everything. :-> BMW > From: [email protected] > Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2014 01:22:36 +0100 > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [LU] Non lu > > > > On 25 Jun 2014, at 09:59, Nigel Barber <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Polite players win nothing. > > As opposed to biting, diving racially abusive players, who win so much.
