Nice, truthful little article in the Daily Mirror today by Alan McKinlay questioning Rogers' backing of Suarez, and bringing up the three stamps on players this season, of which he recieved no ban at all, the word 'thuggery' was spot on.

Can you link it up mate?
 
The amount of blues piss taking out of Liverpool fans that have never been to Anfield on twitter is embarrassing. Like it's fine if it's a good natured thing but the amount of people that do it out of pure spite and because they think it's cool is pathetic. Some really are truly bitter.
 
If anyone wants a giggle TalkSport have made it their mission to talk about Suarez as much as physically possible this week, some of their rants have had me howling. It's been great this week, just full of idiot kopites coming on and saying "Yer but Defoe!" and the presenters just shoot them down with a f*cking nuclear warhead.

I don't usually like it but it's been rather entertaining this week.
 
I have always been curious about one question. What do the blue half of Merseyside think about Scousers in LFC? For example, what do you guys think about Stevie and Carra? You guys root for him when they're not playing against you?

Off Rawk
 
Alan McKinlay in todays Mirror.

I never thought I'd live long enough to hear an old etonian tory prime minister discussing how he would discipline a Liverpool footballer.
Personally, I can't wait to hear Brendan Rogers getting his own back by telling David Cameron to behave himself over the latest health and education cuts.
Make no mistake, Rodgers could do it. His latest performance, talking about the Luis Suarez case, confirmed his status as the manager most likely to make a politician.
He is certainly at ease in front of the cameras. In fact he seems to positively enjoy it, as anyone who saw Being Liverpool would testify.
In his summing up of the incident, Rodgers offered an apology for his star strikers behaviour, a "better solution" (six game ban now, six suspended) a defence of his own player, and a direct attack on the FA.
The latter was probably the most important because, as any good politician knows, you have to appeal to your constituents. In this case, a fair few Liverpool fans, who see Suarez as the victim, rather than sinner.
It seems to me that Suarez owes the FA a few games rest anyway.
His stamping on Thomas Hubocan (Zenit St Petersburg), Wigans Dave Jones, and Sylvain Distin, were disgraceful challenges which no amount of shoulder shrugging will ever convince me was anything but thuggery.
Those bleating that the bite didn't really harm Branislav Ivanovic, so what is all the fuss about, should look at the video of those "tackles".
Total number of games missed as a result of those tackles: zero.
You can argue about whether 10 games for the bite was excessive, but on balance, I think Suarez has little room for complaint.
If anyone could persuade me otherwise, however, it would be the right honourable Brendan Rogers.
 
Phil Thompson on SSN, he is talking proper sense, agreed 10 games was deserved and was worried it could have been more.
