My father Peter 1944 - 24 December 2011 was a lifelong supporter of Everton, since he was a young lad growing up in Liverpool. Sadly he passed away this week, but his dying wish was to see Everton return to their former glory of the 70's and 80's. I hope this Everton team can honour a dying man's wish and bring home a trophy or two. He will be watching from heaven.

Apparently some random guy dying will fuel Everton to make up a 21 point deficit in the second half of the season

Why would he need to apologize? He has been treated so unfairly with all of this. I've followed this subject since day one and they're literally translating the Spanish dialogue Suarez and Evra had during that game.

That's beyond retarded. You can't just translate word by word and believe you actually have an exact meaning of what was said. It's just the same when you translate some things from English into Spanish, you need to take into account the cultural difference, keeping in mind some words don't mean the same in every country, etc.

I'm from Uruguay and I've seen SO many people talk about this without knowing absolutely NOTHING at all about how things are in my country. I read that experts in "Urugayan Spanish" said that the word "negro" is offensive in some cases in Uruguay. That's bullshit. I call 3 of my closest friends like that, I even had a highschool teacher I called negro. One of my friends dad is black and is called negro by everyone he knows. We use that term for anyone, no matter the skin tone. Over here, people don't consider it an insult, let alone racist. It's just a nickname. We also call people "rubio" or "rubia" = "blondie" or "flaco" = "slim" or "gordo" = fattie. Nobody gives a poo poo over here. I understand the English are completely different from us, take offense for things nobody would over here... but is it THAT hard to understand nobody is offended by those words over here? I've tried reasoning with a few English people I know from forums and nobody believes me. They think black people here "must have gotten used to the abuse" therefore they don't complain. Gosh, it just makes me rage. It's THAT PEOPLE HERE ARE PROUD of being what they are and couldn't care less if someone mentions their skin tone.

It's so hard for me to post this and not rage at everything and this whole subject, people talk and talk and don't know anything at all. I read in some article that Suarez said to Evra "because you're black" which is CLEARLY a word by word translation from our Spanish, an expression we use "porque sos negro" which means "because it's you" or "because poo poo happens". It's not meant to be serious at all, it's meant to be a joke. It has NOTHING to do with skin tone, since AS I said before, we call pretty much EVERYONE "negro" NO MATTER WHAT THEIR SKIN TONE IS.

I understand Luis hosed up though, he should've thought his words would be misunderstood in another country, but people need to shut the gently caress up about Luis "using racial slurs", because over here not a single word he said would EVER be considered offensive. All this was a language/cultural misunderstanding between two players who were trying to annoy each other in a football game and the FA made a huge deal out of, so did the English media, which I already hated before and now even more. Now Luis gets to have a tainted reputation over something completely silly.

A lot worse things are said in every football game, there have been team fights, people get shot and die when supporters of different teams fight, violent tackles... but noooo, a silly misunderstanding like this is on every front page in England.

That's your media, I hope you're proud of it. /rant over

Suarez - victim of xenophobia?

He's been a hate figure since he arrived in the Premier League, but will this change? He's done stupid things in the past, but so has some British players and they're still respected. Bellamy & Savage are two examples of players whose image has changed dramatically. The alleged racism against Suarez being accepted as the absolute truth amongst the more unsavoury sections of footballing support hasn't helped his cause at all either.

Maradona was despised yet lauded for his genius. 30 years on and that hatred is all but gone. Fully believe the same thing will happen for Suarez. Fashionable to hate now, yet over time will be lauded only for his footballing brilliance.

She's just coming, sir.
Hey, remember when I posted that rant from my club (Hearts)'s Dear Leader, Vladimir Romanov?

Well...

(context: Hearts have fairly serious cash flow problems, and have been late in paying the players for the past couple of months. The SPL held a meeting yesterday and gave Hearts an ultimatum - "pay the players in full in 10 days or else", effectively. Hearts had asked the SPL to postpone said meeting because they were waiting for a transfer fee to clear, which would've allowed the players to be paid without the need for the SPL's posturing)

http://www.heartsfc.co.uk/articles/20120105/vladimir-romanov-statement_2241384_2567380

quote:

"As soon as Hearts moved closer to the third spot the monkeys start to squeal, lie and create conspiracy plots.

I thought I had expressed myself clearly - I am selling the club and I am not going to give any more money away. It is pointless to support show business, not football. Hearts is now living out of its own budget.

Everyone knew, including players, media and SPL that the wages are going to be paid as soon as the money was received for Eggert Jonsson, who was sold last year. But media still tried to create conspiracy plots about the team and managed to get a prompt and unwise decision from the SPL meeting, which the club asked it to postpone until next week in order to get opportunity to pay the wages.

As such I have not cheated anyone. The monkeys tricked the SPL, fans and themselves and showed who is in charge of the football mafia. They will continue to cheat as this is their job.

I am used to their lies. I remember when the fight started between two people at the end of one of our AGMs and all the cameras were there as they were expecting it. Later that episode was covered by all major stations as backdrop of the AGM, trying to portray the club as a mess.

I feel sorry for the poor monkeys. Mowgli is asking to work for the publicity of the Old Firm, that's why they have to lie and tell tall stories.

But there is no future for Scottish football while these media monkeys are in charge. Not just for football, but for the whole country. When people tried to protest in the streets, media turned it into chaos, demonstrating masked instigators and hired gangsters in front of the cameras.

I have nothing to prove. Seven years ago I proved that there was no football, but only show business. When Kaunas threw Rangers out of the competition you switched your TV off to avoid embarrassment. Fear takes away the wisdom.

I am going to reiterate once again - I am not going to gift the club money anymore. The only thing left for the club to do is to develop its own youth and attempt to enlighten people who have been deceived and held as part of a stupid crowd by Mowgli.

The progress is there - Mowgli is under prosecution and in exile. But until they open a zoo for the monkeys and keep them in cages, they will keep jumping on people who are straightforward and not afraid to speak."

We all know by now that Suarez was using a term he can 'get away with' in Uruguay. Even though when people bring the colour of skin into a conversation, it becomes an issue of race, I think he was just having a dig at Evra, in the heat of the battle.
I was a little concerned at first, when I saw footage of Suarez, pinching Evra's skin, but that could be done in the same way as pulling his hair.
We all get called 'Gringo' and 'Blondito' in Latin America. I have been loads of times, and I spent 18 months out there. I have been to Uruguay, and have never come across any form of racism from anybody, on me, or on anyone else. To say Liverpool should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute is farcical. They are protecting the interests of their investment/player, and that is only natural. They would naturally have been less accommodating to him, if he had been deemed racist. He would have been sacked, long before he would have been charged.
Using the term 'Negro' and ' Negrito' is common-place out there, as are terms like mulatto, etc. They are not harmful terms when used correctly - they only become so, when people take it out of context, or when someone is bring racist, which I don't think Suarez was being.
My work colleague and my age (from Trinidad) uses the term 'negro' all the time. Does that make it OK for him to say it, but not OK for 'white man' me or the hispanic, olive skinned Suarez?

I love Devon to bits but holy gently caress is it ever far-right.

To be honest, there is so much anger about how Suarez has been treated and by all these idiotic politically correct nobodies coming out and accusing Liverpool and Dalglish of this and that, I couldn't give a poo poo. I grew up on the banks of the Mersey, I'm a pure working class and I don't have time for all these liberal idiots. Its the FA's fault for lying. Have you been reading the Daily Mail all week?? Suarez is being hounded by them. I threatened them with the Press Complaints and one article disappeared from there website.
I'm not suggesting the Oldham lad deserved it but if he was racially abused then it goes to show you that it doesn't really exist anymore as he was shocked.
So all this rubbish about racism in football is just rubbish. Stoked up by idiots like Jason Roberts.
I live away from Liverpool now and constantly hear Scouse 'jokes'. Is that not a form of racism? Regionalism at least!!

quote:

This is just the beginning I’m afraid. As much as you want this to be ‘black and white’ - it isn’t - and such binary reduction puts you in racial profiling waters.The FA are now guilty of the very thing they self-righteously tried to rail against. Now we have a murderous political campaign against Suarez, Dalglish, and Liverpool, who have already been politically blackmailed into giving up their appeals and issuing a player apology. These outside groups like Kick it Out are now seeking to further defame a player based on a kangeroo court, a probability case, and the FA’s own admission of character preference (which is legally unethical if not racially motivated). They have ignored Evra’s own slurs and threats to Suarez, Evra’s history of racial epithets supported by video, and the previous FA dismissals of his ‘character.’ The FA took an unprecedented case, an unprecedented procedure, an unprecedented punishment and decided to aim it at a South American player with a poor command of English, new to the country. As it’s official scapegoat, they chose a person of mixed race, denigrated his worth in court, and produced a decision based on lip readers from Manchester. They should be ashamed! This of course deflects from the much more cut and dry case involving a British player, the England captain no less. By the lack of parity in treating these players the FA is promoting something akin to racial discrimination.The fact that Lord Ousley is affiliated with Manchester United makes the recent statements all the more regrettable. If you truly want to kick racism out of football you have to be equitable and fair in accessing all sides of the race question, and all cultural associations. You also must consider that you are trying to assassinate the character of a player that used the Spanish word for ‘black’ when the original charge was falsely based around the much stronger N word. What you are seeking to defend will actually bring about more racism in football because now any player can get another player banned and politically assassinated on a hearsay allegation. Your actions, and the statements from people like Jason Roberts, are actually promoting inequality, subjectivity, and racial profiling. Witness how the media have sanctimoniously jumped in based on such reductive political correctness and how the player’s own mother now fears for his safety. Also, do a modicum of research on Suarez’s race relations, there are videos a plenty on youtube, and you will find that there isn’t a less racist player in the premiership.

I ask because you're site is very good and I always visit to see what you have to say even if I don't always agree with what you post! However you seem to be knowledegable enough to know if this could be an issue for Patrice Evra? I know it was made in 2004 whilst he was with Monaco but it was made in a London Hotel on British soil so surely he abused the terms of him entering the UK then and had this been public knowledge he would have been removed from the UK and refused a work permit when he went to Man Utd in 2006?

Many years ago people from Liverpool were taken as slaves (just like black people were) by the Vikings, they were taken onboard the viking ships and forced to cook food for the vikings. 1 of the types of food they cooked was called LAPSKAUS ( a type of stew, veg,meat etc.still eaten today in Norway.) . The name SCOUSER comes from the word LAPSKAUS. This is why the people from outside of Liverpool called the slave people of Liverpool, the slave name SCOUSERS. So in History the people of Liverpool have been slaves just like black people have, the black people got called the "N" word, people from liverpool got called "scousers" word, DO WE jump up and down every time some1 calls us that.. answer is NO, we have moved on and accepted or past. But maybe.. just maybe... we should make scouser a RASIST name? beacause everytime they use that word they are calling us SLAVES.
