Justice for the Whiny Spic
Racism is like Helen Chamberlain; just because everyone did it in the 70’s it doesn’t make it acceptable today.
Luis Suarez remains oblivious to this fact. The Uruguayan is so racist; he even refuses to play against Blackburn.
It’s not just the blacks that Suarez despises. He threatened to leave Liverpool if they signed Robert Green.
His odious behaviour finally came to light after he racially abused Patrice Evra. Depending on the reports you read, Suarez either used the word ‘negro’, ‘negrito’ or ‘negrita’. Ironically if he was English and used ‘black cunt’ he’d have been rewarded with the captaincy of his country.
I did read one theory defending Suarez’s language, claiming that adding ‘ita’ to a description of a person is a term of endearment in South America. To be fair, I’ve often heard Ashley Cole referred to as a cockita.
As bad as Suarez’s actions were, at least he can plead ignorance. Liverpool FC should have educated the man with what is and isn’t acceptable, instead of spending their time conducting a rolling minute’s silence for the death of Andy Carroll’s career.
What surprised me most about the affair was the supporters’ reaction to Suarez receiving a fully justified eight-match ban. Their affinity with the player actually increased, probably because none of them will be working in the near future.
On top of the ban, the Uruguayan was fined £40,000, which for him is practically nothing; he spends more than that each week on literature denying the holocaust.
Instead of thanking the FA for their leniency, Liverpool released a statement that can only be described as paranoid. It displayed a chip on their shoulder so large; it could have single-handedly prevented the Irish potato famine.
Liverpool’s PR team, and I use that term loosely, clearly went into overtime, which is ironic. Their statement gave weight to the ‘monkeys with typewriters’ theory, at least that’s how Suarez described them.
The statement called for a ban for Evra, as he may have used the offensive term ‘sudaca’, which appears to be describing Suarez as a small number-based puzzle.
Liverpool’s ‘defence’ even contained the ‘most of Suarez’s best family members are black’ cliché. I’m not suggesting that his grandfather wasn’t black, I’m just saying they should have clarified the fact he was a minstrel.
The club’s behaviour after the cringeworthy statement has been equally bizarre. Kenny sent the players out for their last game in T-shirts decorated with a picture of Luis Suarez. Needless to say, the tops were all white.
Kenny even conducted his pre-match interview in one of the offensive T-shirts, where he was one step away from demanding that we listen to the FACTS.
As the only black player in the team Glen Johnson must have been under incredible pressure to wear the top. Especially as the T-shirt was sponsored by a leading rice manufacturer: Uncle Tom’s.
In the defence of Liverpool, proceeds from the sale of the T-shirts will go to the NSPCC, which according to Alan Hansen is the national society for prevention of civility to coloureds.
Chelsea players considered wearing a sweater to show their support for John Terry, but they ruled it out as it showed a distinct lack of class. Ashley Cole did get his hands on one of the jumpers, I think it was Jonathan Edwards.
While Liverpool acted disgracefully throughout the process, Manchester United went about their business with a quiet dignity. Sir Alex remains an active anti-racism campaigner, he even dyes his nose purple to raise awareness.
Liverpool’s behaviour reached a pinnacle of preposterousness when they banned the Daily Mirror after they used the factually correct headline ‘racist’. The kitman must have had a coronary; they’re literally running out of red tops.
This isn’t the first time that Liverpool have tried to defend the indefensible, they famously supported Michael Shields after he mistook a Bulgarian’s head for a paving stone.
I’m not saying all Scousers are racists or barbarians, a lot of them are Everton fans. Take the Bartons for example; you can’t knock their work ethic or faux-intelligence, even if you can question their unconventional stance on axe storage.
Liverpool now find themselves with their backs to the wall, a position that their supporters are more than familiar with.
I just hope that Liverpool football club take a long hard look at themselves in the mirror, although at this rate, they’ll have to settle with the Daily Star. And that’s perhaps the saddest aspect of all.
