FCB and RM, as of this morning, knowing of a possible punishment of Suarez, still want him.

Excellent.

9 matches start now. TBH, who gives a fuck about the Uruguay shit, laughing at the Scousers is much more enjoyable.

Its more enjoyable but lets be real, the next game he plays will be at the Bernabeu or the Nou Camp.

They would appeal the harshness of the punishment, but surely that leave them open to getting the ban extended due to a frivolous appeal.

Yeah they should extend the ban if that's the case although it is FIFA so anything could happen.

Haha I can see it now, SSN reports that FIFA have extend Luis Suarez's ban to include a lap dance from Blatter for a frivolous appeal...

 

[Shadydan]

FIFA confirm he can still be sold.

 

[montylynch]

Liverpool won't sell him, he's their prize 'always the victim' asset. They'll have the shirts ready, the banners flying over the ground, the whole thing will be turned on it's head and the sympathy flowing from that city towards him will be huge.

LFC will never accept what he did was wrong. 100%, they will never condemn him. They'll call it misguided, unfortunate and say his temperament got the better of him, again. He's probably already had a dozen messages from LFC saying 'We've got your back, la'

Good job Balague knows f**k all.

Liverpool will be wanting a minutes silence and black armbands for this on the first day of the season

Unless they have an away game...

That is hardly a surprise as technically that would be a business related issue, for example, this ban also will not stop him agreeing sponsorship deals.

Fixed.

He's friends with Poch though IIRC and he's interviewed him on several occasions AND Balague is an Espanyol fan.

Oh believe me, Suarez will make his debut at a home game. It'd be a massive missed opportunity if he doesnt.

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Fixed.

That's what I was getting at but I CBA to get a picture

Bale didn't...

IIRC a couple of Sponsors were very unhappy with Liverpool's attitude towards their support for Suarez, so maybe it will be line in the sand time for FSG

 

[kevinfish]

Ultimately this is not good for Liverpool. Either they keep him and he misses out on x amount of important PL and CL matches or sell him and I would say that will be at a reduced price as his new team will not be able to use him in that time. Ha!

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Pretty happy with this, mainly because I was fearing a much weaker decision.

 

[SlickMongoose]

I just can't stop laughing.

For the second year running, one of the world's top footballers will miss the start of a league campaign due to biting an opponent.
