How long will Suarez's ban be? Mod warning in OP and post#455

I wonder was it directly translated from Spanish?

Doesn't look like anyone with decent english would write

It's not an apology if it's based on an excuse.

it's an apology for an accident. apologies for accidents do exist, and happen all the time.

it's just whether you think the bite was actually an accident or not.

Mr Alan

I think you're a little pedantic slick. If he was claiming it wasn't intentional why & how could he stress it would never happen again?

Pilsbury Doughboy

That's my thinking, looks like pigeon English.

Do you think it was an accident?

True that.

Looks to me like he's admitted to it and apologised.

Sir Oxman

Just read a few lines of it (maybe that is the actual apology) does he apologise to his club at all?
If not, he can fck right off.

If it's an apology to an Italian why isn't he just making it in Spanish?

Fair play he's apologised.

He is a top class player who wants to win at any cost, I have never seen such an emotional winner or looser in all my time watching football.
IMO he apologised because he is a winner, he wants to win the Champions League and La Liga with Barca (or other top top club) and will do whatever it takes to make that happen.

Apology was a condition of his Barcelona transfer.

if it's a translation issue as rarnes suggests, then I'm wrong.

but the translation we have seems very carefully worded so that he's not actually admitting that he bit him. it sounds like an accident.

listen, I couldn't give a toss really, apart from the fact it affects Liverpool.

also, whatever about the apology, if he gave one immediately instead of the awful reasoning we got, I don't think the ban would be as severe as it is.

12 month global ban

"The collision he suffered with me"

Still playing the accident card?

Within 4 minutes of Grayditch posting Suarez's apology.

Do you sit staring at the screen all day to see if anything's happening with Liverpool players?

What are yiz like.......

I think it actually would have been worse. By denying it and giving his excuses he cast that little bit of doubt in the minds of some people and split the debate down the middle with numerous people coming out in support of him. If he'd come out straight away and said 'Yeah I bit him' he'd have had no defense and no one to fight his corner. A much longer ban could have been on the cards.

He isn't even apologising for the bite, just the collision between the players.. Then he goes on to say it won't happen again. Completely contradictory but I suppose Barca will be happy enough with it

Now that he's off to Barcelona, I'm starting to think the ban was a bit severe.:p

It was an accident after all.

Mickeroo

Stay on topic please. Less of the snipey posts, if you're more concerned with other posters than Suarez then you shouldn't be posting on this thread.

surely he owes the pool fans and his team etc an apology seeing as lfc are affected by his actions.

still making excuses when its clear as day what happened. hardly any remorse which makes me think his ban should have been much harsher than it is

Bad evil men have no remorse I guess.

I think all of his goals from last seasons should be recalled and for the league table to be re-calculated, and have Liverpool end up wherever they would without his goals. Probably relegated, but at least they would have done it honestly. People would respect them more.

It'd be great to discuss something on this forum without it turning into United vs Liverpool within 4 posts

You see it every time, the same posters de rail it, get away with it and do it again and again.
