ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[bluebottle]

WFT does a buddha kick look like?

Are Buddhists non violent as a religion? A Buddha kick would be an oxymoronic thing.

 

[davek]

Barton was charged with two counts of violent conduct and got a 12 match ban - 8 for elbowing Tevez. The judgement:

"There are rules of conduct that should be adhered to, and such behaviour tarnishes the image of football in this country, particularly as this match was the pinnacle of the domestic season and watched by millions around the globe."

The rat's chomp falls into that category.

Said all along 6/7 game ban and I think that'll be proven right.

 

[TheFinnFan]

If RS dare to appeal...could it be that the rat plays in derby?

 

[Pat's Van]

various media sources now beginning to refer to the attack as a "chomp" rather than a "bite"

I think that bodes well

 

[Bungle]

Watch a video of some of the challenges Mirallas makes and then compare them with the ankle stamps Suarez does, there's no difference other than you're blinded by loyalty with Mirallas, if that makes me a kopite then fair play, bit childish like, but fair play.

 

[davek]

Retrospective review. Officials didnt see it. He'll get a longer ban which he should get as he's embarrassed the FA and the league in front of millions of prime-time audience worldwide

The RS will probably appeal it too so he can play in the derby.

They wont appeal. They've already heavily criticised the rat's actions. They'd just look completely ****ing stupid.

Hasnt stopped them before! Be amazed if they did though, well, unless it was a 9 month ban or something

Think if they appeal and it gets turned down, they could make the ban even longer. I dont think they would risk that, giving he is likely to miss the start of the season at this rate.

Being a bit harsh to Mirallas I think. Can kind of see where you are coming from though

We do have to be able to put eyes on ourselves occasionally

Yes. Yes that does make you a kopite. Unfortunately you're a nice fellow, with good intentions. But a kopite non the less.

That time the evidence was disputed. Not the case this time though.

They'll accept it. He'll get easily double the usual punishment and Liverpool will more than likely show him the door this summer - despite the words today.

Think you are right. If, hypothetically, he got a nine month ban, and he left for Bayern in the summer, does the ban have to be served with them?

 

[ScouseBlueBoy]

If the Kopites can prove that every time Duncan Ferguson got sent off for punching or strangling someone we all went 'en masse' to the www to bleat about his innocence, how he was provoked, how it's a 'witch-hunt', blamed the referees, Alex Ferguson, the conspiracy to hobble EFC, screamed like nutters pointing fingers at players from other clubs who were also volatile/aggressive -

If the Kopites can prove we did that, THEN they MIGHT have a comparison.

If they can't they should STFU.

Oh he'll be defo gone.

He'll probably end up the leagues top goalscorer in a mediocre side. Even if he didn't do what he did yesterday, they'll be clubs lined up to throw money at him

do you think so? I think it will be quite interesting to see what sort of clubs come in for him, especially at the 40 mill figure that's been banded about
