"Am a Liverpool suporter but i dont like racism at all that punishment is good for Suarez now its time for him to grow up....am really sory for this result bse i dont think we have a replacement for him at the moment ..."
" I am infuriated with the FA decision I am half Spanish half English and the many words of banter I and my friends use include negrito, rubio even in the heat of the moment my black friends and I taunt each other about our race, "
"just goes to show the fa is being by united they take the word of a liar he lied before he is lying now, suarez only crime is he is a gifted footballer he made evra look like an amateur"
"What doesn't kill us makes us stronger! Take the ban, have a Christmas break, and make headlines with your feet in Feb. Clearing your name will only drag out the negative headlines - best let it pass and know you have the support of the club and the fans."
"I'll be totally honest, if he said the word ne**o then even if he did not mean it in a racial manner (which I think he probably didn't) he is asking for trouble, as Ferguson and Evra are not going to pass up this opportunity. The ban is obviously far too much but, again, I feel we are the victims of the FA supposedly 'taking a stance' after what happened with Blatter and FIFA."
"can't believe this, the Ferguson Association can do anything now can't they? no-one got hurt in any way, except manures awful defense and that's their answer"
"Luis, this country can be very stupid. I do not believe what the FA have decided. Please do not think we are not supporting you. Please stay with LFC, we will protect you. YNWA"
"Clear intervention of red nose, I can not wait his retiring, his .king added until we score time les... hope in no impact of this situation on our today game. We need use Dirk as forward. Need wins, also for Luis !"
"It is utterly shocking the way the FA have reacted to this, it seems more like a witch hunt against Luis than an investigation regarding an accusation of a racist comment. Evra has done this before, surely real justice will be served and it will be Evra who gets the fine and ban"
"luis, leave that country. full of hipocracy.
football is a man game, the comission 5 o clock te drinker never plays football like sudamericans.
go to italy and show how men play football
fuerza luis.

"Seems cheats & cry babies like Ferdinand & Evra like to dish it out but cannot take it when it rebounds. players (certain players) now have a license to target & provoke other players into retaliating then make up stories to get other players into trouble.
I'm seriously disgusted the war political correctness has went mad. Is there no law against provocation? F.A. Stinks"
"Here in Uruguay we have a diferent culture, black people are called negro, but not in a despective way.
Negro is also a way to call you love one in a relationship, negro o negra. I understand is difficult to understand for a foreign person but is our culture
Good luck Liverpool will be pulling for you even without Luis. YNWA"
"Suarez needs to grow up.If he so wishes to help this adorable and hallowed football club,we need more professionalism from him by growing up like Rooney did MnU.Notwistanding, in this trying period of his, we shall not let him walk alone.YNWA."
"According to uruguayan media, Suarez's lawyer will be giving a press conference at 17:00hs in Uruguay, stating Suarez opinion on this matter, and his decision to appeal or not."
"HE'S BEEN FITTED UP, COS TERRY IS ENGERLAND CAPTAIN HE IS GOING TO GET AWAY WITH PROVEN RACISM, SO THEY HAD TO HAVE A PATSY TO PRETEND THEY'RE TOUGH ON RACISM. WE SHOULD REFUSE TO ALLOW OUR PLAYERS TO PLAY FOR THEM "
"The word is not Taboo like in England, there are racists everywhere but im sure Luis isn't one.
We call each other negro, like mate or pal even when there is not a black person involved.
"
"English F.A. is not, repeat not, an impartial organization. suggest protest after protest at Lancaster Gate to let people know what a failure this organization is. I would not be surprised if Kenny resigns in disgust at this. John Terry and Luis Suarez We love you to bits. Evra & Ferdinand are two hate filled Bigots using reverse discrimination against white players."
" Once again we see that sometimes you throw civility to the winds in dealings with fellow men. We've accepted injustices too much in this club all in the name of being civil. Why for instance, was there no protest against the Spearing red card? We just can't continue to roll over and hope that somebody will appreciate. I hope the management will go beyond words this time. We deserve RESPECT."
"Disgraceful by the F.A (Fergie Association).
In real life the case of one persons word against another would never stand up in court.
When are the F.A going to ban Evra then for his racist slur on Suarez!!
It stinks plus i bet you the F.A will stand up and defend Jihn Terry to.
"
"Luis Suarez should contest this decision to the highest court in the land,otherwise he will be labelled as a racist for the rest of his life all brought about by a proven liar Evrato.
Don't be upset Luis stick by your sense of honour and make this sham F.A court eat it's words.YNWA."
"Come On Terry! Come On Suarez! Come On L.F.C.! Fight this 'Tooth and Nail', don't back down for a second, fight these people, don't cower up to them, these people love 'corner boy louts' like Looney and Co. and even defend them after they commit physical assault.
Protest against the F.A."
"Please Luis Suarez, Please L.F.C., please take Legal Action against the English F.A. they have truly gone too far this time, much too far. we deserve to be treated badly if we don't fight this using every possible avenue be it Legal, protests, boycotts, refusal to be interviewed by Sky etc, Fight, Fight , Fight, Fight, Fight!!!! "
"What a stich up, dont worry luis, all of us supporters aer behind you 100%, and you will come back stronger,Y N W A. any one thought about this, If you started your ban know,you would be back for the Bolton game, and except for City,twice quite easey games, would be back for the 2nd semi.its a thought Kenney,.From a fan who's been there for 56 years, YNWA, "
"The sentence is absolutely absurd (period). In my opinion he should have got a one / two match ban and a huge warning for the future (for the cultural barrier thingy). But Luis didn't help himself either with the Fulham middle finger and other earlier events. I hope that this experience will help him to contain himself more on the pitch. Non the less, Luis YNWA! "
"I personaly dont think Luis is a racist in my opinion. As our statement claims Luis is from a mixed race family and has alot of dark skined friends, he has a nice uruguan skin tone himself so why would he be racist? Its a terrible decision from the FA, HES NOT A RACIST, 8 MATCH BAN IS WRONG!!! Best player in the world right now & he gets this??"
"funk2funk, agree with you, F.A. now causing non whites to feel they are the one's being discriminated against by 100% bias ruling, same goes for John Terry, also being victimised, we are behind you all the way Suarez & Terry YNWA"
"The British FA what a joke of an organisation,no video evidence,no team mates backing up Evra,but still guilty HOW!HOW!HOW!.Please fans whose going to tonight game show your support for saurez,LFC fans are bigger and better than any FA,THIS WILL MAKE US STRONGER."
"ephraimymubs, can't you see it is the white players who are being victimised by reverse discrimination????
Support Suarez 100% or not at all please?
Terry & Suarez, 2 brave men!!"
"I'm from Denmark but i have allways supportet the english nationalteam no matter WHO they were playing against.
That's over now, the nationalteam represent F ergy A ssociation, and i dont support them, i know there are many like me.
Keep the spirit high Suarez, dont let the girl and purpelnose get you down.YNWA"
"MarkSc, The abuse that Suarez has had to endure, both physical & verbal has in fact been criminal itself, could he not bring a case against Fulham F.C.?
His vulgar gesture was only his reaction to 'UNBEARABLE Verbal Abuse'. just like what he was enduring against Evra. He's only Human, bet I could provoke you if I tried hard enough or vice versa. Think about it?"
"I hope LFC will use every means/avenues at its disposal to appeal. The LFC statement is quite compelling and if it had not been used at the hearing should be in appeal. It appears the FA ruling is based on he said/he said, without any substantive evidence. It should have given the benefit of the doubt/warning. Luis, plz appeal. LFC fans, tonight's YNWA should be dedicated to Suarez. We are behind."
"When we next meet the s lets accuse them all of racism, the Fergie Association will have no choice but to ban em all for 8 matches as the evidence will be the same...backfire!"
"ephraimymubs, support Luis Suarez 100% or not at all eh? last thing he needs now is his own fans 'kicking him when he's down' shame on you if you don't. YNWA Luis Suarez all the way!!!!"
"Evra knows exactly what he's done and his boss has backed him because they knew this would happen. Evra is mentally weak and cannot handle the abuse that goes on in the football arena. Suarez has abused him but by putting his colour in to the equation - HE'S A RACIST! Absolute tosh! The FA have been waiting for something like this, but have got it so wrong. "
"They've charged him with misconduct, well misconduct goes on all the time so they now need to administer the same punishment on all offenders! Although the punishment of 8 matches is ridiculous, 3 matches and a behavioural program is sufficient."
"i do not know why it always only happens to liverpool and why lfc is always the effectee? why not other clubs also?
We are all with you. you have been punished for crime which you have not commmited.
SUAREZ YNWA ...."
"Look at this, Luis Suarez on South Africa 2010 with a child.

"YNWA alone Suarez we all know your innocent. FA is run by David Gill & Fergie this is shocking take this to every court and never give up untill your name cleared. Never back down. LFC all the way. His name Luis Suarez and he wears the famous red!!!!!!!! Evra s!!!!"
"Gutted and doubly gutted that it looks like John Terry is only going to get a £2500 fine from the magistrates. Where's the justice in that. Double standards again. "
"ynwa Suarez, Liverpool must pull out all the stops to clear his name!! The FA are money hungry and trying to make a case out of Suarez cos of Fifa president Blatter. we are supporting you Saurez ynwa "
"Without proofs it sounds that they are punishing Suarez for his hand against Ghana during the last WC. Without proofs the ban will only increase the racism instead of prevent it. Bad decision. Evra is a bad person it doesn't matter his colour. But the FA are not best than him."
"boycott the FA!! Let it be known that we do not support this commission and we do not recognise it. This sort of behaviour is just as bad as racism!! Let it be known that we feel that they are unjust and not mature enough for the authority they have."
"I've read comments from some apparently LFC fans. They say that Suarez was an idiot or that he must grow up. Show me the proofs of his racism and I will agree with you. Meanwhile he is innocent, at least for me. With or without Luis Suarez I wish the best to LFC . I feel like another supporter. "
"A lawyer has said the FA and Evra could sue Liverpool for questioning their credibility when this statement clearly only questions the accusation of Evra and the handling of this situation. Not the player himself or the FA itself! How dumb can you get!"
"Seems the F.A.have tried to be diligent but only really essessed English and Latin-American aspects. Why not French culture,too? Dark rum called "Negrita" (or "La Negrita") marketed throughout Franc,showing picture of dark skinned woman on label! Appears Evra motivated by desire to spoil a rival's season by hoodwinking F.A. and its ideals, at no risk to himself!"
"Good for Suarez if he actually abuse Evra racially as this's not accepted but if not well, that's his/our faith. Anyways, FA have been looking to set us ablaze but we helped them by rubbing some fuel on our body. Thanks to Fergie & ManU, LFC & Suarez will stand and not walk alone"
"we shud buy markus henrikson,philippe coutinho and iker munain-d best players of their generation and we can get dem fr 4 million each.them with christian erikson and demba ba along with hulk.sell carroll and d extra .play 3 up front"
