It's not a case of Liverpool vs United. I don’t like Evra and I don’t like United. However, to suggest Evra should not be listened to because he has made one previous complaint that could not be substantiated, is astounding.
The FA has found Suarez guilty. They would not have taken the decision lightly as it is, potentially, a powder keg situation. They would have thought through the decision thoroughly.
The behaviour of many Liverpool fans on phone-ins and on the internet has been, quite frankly, pathetic. The amount of racist comments aimed at Evra on Twitter and the various edits on his Wiki page have been distasteful. Not to mention the excuses Liverpool fans have posted on RAWK.
I work opposite a PR specialist and we had a laugh discussing the Liverpool FC statement published on the club website. It’s a PR disaster. Whoever agreed for that statement to go ‘live’ should be disciplined on the grounds of capability.
Should we actually be surprised by the reaction of the club and the fans? Again they have turned a situation, where they did not get there way, into a “we are the victims”, “woe are we”. I think they secretly enjoy it. After all it gives them the opportunity to immerse the city in self-pity.
