I read that it was nigger

^
We'll I assumed that was the allegation, but it's been debunked. I wouldn't be surprised either way. Uruguay is known for their hatred of the black French.

10/17/2011 3:47:49 PM

My hatred of French blacks that play for Manchester United is also shared, so I totally understand.

actually, I used to not mind Evra all that much but over the last few years he's turned into a whiny bitch

whiny bitch? tell me how

Pot meet kettle with Suarez being the biggest diver in the league.

Not saying Spurs don't have a couple, every EPL club does, but y'all need to move past the Adam/Evra incidents for reals. SAF fucked Man U over with his starting XI. That's who you should be mad at if anything

my question was for the most part asking whether he actually thought Evra was a whiny bitch because of the racism allegation because this is supposedly Evra's third allegation of racism. in reality, this is the first time he's ever actually accused anyone of racism because in the other incidents the allegations were made by others (against Finnan the accusation was made by deaf lip-reading fans, Evra didn't do anything; against the chelsea staff member the accusation was made by ManU coaches).


the whole situation is a shame, and i feel bad for whichever player is telling the truth because this probably won't end in either player being vindicated as there doesn't seem to be proof either way. no video evidence doesn't mean Suarez didn't call Evra a nigger, neither does it mean that Evra's making it up.

Really? You know he plays for another team besides United. Nevermind you gotta be trolling...

u right

they both look like fools with this he said/she said business

10/17/2011 6:49:51 PM

Agreed. Being a bitch doesn't mean you deserve to get the n-bomb dropped on you.

10/17/2011 6:59:34 PM

Calling Evra a "whiny bitch" had nothing to do with this incident. He, like the majority of United players and their coach, complain after every foul called against them and are always asking for a damn yellow card.

If Suarez said what Evra claims, then ban him. There's no place for that and I guess Evra had every right to call attention to it if it's true. I'm not sure I would have done it if I were in his position though because like you said, there will probably be no real evidence and I'm sure it'll cause a 99% increase in racism towards Evra in the future.

10/17/2011 7:03:51 PM

Asking for a card is the lamest of the lame and should result in a immediate card for the player waving the imaginary card in the air. That goes for any soccer anywhere. Get that out of the game asap.

*That's not directed at anyone, just making a statement about the sport.

10/17/2011 7:18:53 PM

Suarez is a punk.

10/17/2011 7:19:06 PM

He's the new RVP

10/17/2011 7:20:01 PM

no doubt Suarez is a punk, you won't see any argument on that from me

10/17/2011 8:05:20 PM

If he weren't so fucking good I'd hate him even more.

How on earth is RVP a punk? Brittle? Kinda gay? Sure... But a punk? I don't see it.

How much weight do these talks of taking relegation out of the EPL really carry?

Is it just talk from greedy overseas owners who don't understand the game and are only worried about losing money?

10/20/2011 1:27:24 PM

there was a discussion about a 2-tiered EPL a few seasons back. It was dead in the water. Honestly I don't see it holding any weight this time around, either.

10/20/2011 6:29:47 PM

What a horrendous fuck up that would be.

One of the best fixture days of the year is the last one where it is changing minute to minute who is getting relegated. Also, what's to stop a team from just shutting it down with 10 matches left knowing there is no consequence to not competing? You know those bottom teams would do that.

10/20/2011 6:59:08 PM

Seems like the top teams should prefer relegation. It guarantees a steady 5 or 6 rotation of teams that can never build any momentum over a few seasons which means a number of easy wins for them.

10/20/2011 8:11:52 PM

Not English Premier League related but this thread gets the most soccer traffic...

Wahl's saying this morning that ESPN won't win rights for 18 and 22 World Cups. That kind of sucks, ESPN did a pretty awesome job with 2010. Now he's saying it's Fox.

Official-Fox gets World Cup. Telemundo wins over Univision.

ESPN is dead to me after showing Little League over US/Mexico.

10/21/2011 10:20:49 AM

I don't really care who has it as long as I can watch every game. Hopefully they have streaming options too because ESPN3 was key last year.

10/21/2011 10:27:26 AM

If this means no John Harkes/Alexi Lalas, I am pleased.

10/21/2011 12:19:25 PM

Incredible finish to Wolves/Swansea. (ESPN2)

10/22/2011 9:32:01 AM

Yes great game, Wolves getting dominated the whole game and come back to put 2 in within 5 minutes.

10/22/2011 9:36:58 AM

Glad I watched the whole match. I was pulling for Swansea throughout the match but couldn't help cheering on Wolves to get the equalizer and nearly a game-winner.

unreal save to close that game

10/22/2011 2:25:47 PM

KK really does my head in with some of his subs...bring on carroll for downing--the only player who can provide him with service? I mean, downing was poor, but that's because he's so predictable on the right side. Why not put him on the left so he can put some crosses in?
Why take off bellamy, the only player who seemed to be running around with any energy? Why leave Gerrard on when it seemed like he was taking a nice sunday afternoon stroll around the park?

and why the fuck did we sell miereles?

10/22/2011 2:33:49 PM

I didn't think Gerrard was that bad, the midfield needs somebody like Lucas. Downing was shit (I will be eating crow on here if he never comes around, btw). I agree about Bellamy, I thought he was good.

10/22/2011 3:06:55 PM

...u all mad?

10/22/2011 6:49:21 PM

^^ I didn't mean to imply that Gerrard was bad. I dont think he played poorly, but he was clearly exhausted after the 75th min and he was rly taking his time getting up and down the pitch. Considering that it takes about 3 days for Charlie Adam to make it down the pitch, that left our defense completely exposed. KK made the right change at the end, bringing on Agger so that Johnson/Enrique could bomb forward, but I wish he had made that change earlier.

10/22/2011 10:24:33 PM

Let's go City.
